PRINCIPQL Iune, 1937 Belleville Township High School Belleville, Illinois Too lightly do we often look upon habits, not realizing that they form a very, perhaps, the very largest part of our lives. There are physical habits intellectual habits, and spiritual habits or at- titudes. Education should aid in the formation of wholesome habits, habits that, if good, or conductive to individual and human welfare, will make lite easy to live and release the mind to a greater freedom in its adventure in the intellectual world. Correct mental habits, when formed by conscious control of the mind make for intellectual brilliancy. The secret of this mental glow is conscious control of the direction of the mind flow. Correct attitudes or spiritual habits need as much stress as correct physical habits, which are quite well and gen- erally known or correct mental habits which are the concern of all classroom exercises. To be able to get on with fellow man, to live with and for a fellow human being, calls for a broad human outlook upon life. It means forming habits of good will, although others do not entertain our views of questions, yet we must accord them their views if we want our own respected. Good spiritual habits make for good social habits and lead to a happier interhuman relationship. H. G. Schmidt, Principal AB., B.S., A.M., M.S.
