Principal ' s Messuue The publishing of Volume II of The Tati.ee shows much effort and enterprise on the part of the members of the Senior Class. Such a contri- bution to school life becomes a worthy keepsake in that it holds intact for all the years to come the memories of high school days as they are actually lived now. Many will there be who will cherish more and more as time goes on the opportunity to look again at the familiar faces of happy schoolmates of long ago. Such a fine group have the Seniors been since their entrance into high school! Their spirit has been one of work, cooperation, and loyalty. Well- rounded and full too have been their lives. Bubbling over with that in- tangible thing we call school spirit, they have created a wholesome and alluring atmosphere wherever they have worked or played. Such out- standing, intelligent, and persevering young people as they are will be sure to continue their trek, started here, on into the great and enticing fields of life. Their successful completion of so many noteworthy things at Benson High School indicates something of what we may expect of them in the future. Seniors, the best wishes of us all go with you ! May each individual life be one of happiness and great and good deeds. And don ' t forget that we appreciate the things you have done which have left such a deep imprint in our memory, and that we shall always treasure Volume II of The Tatler which you have so nobly planned, contrived, and executed.

The aim of education should be to teach us rather how to think, than what to think — rather to improve our minds, so as to enable us to think for ourselves, than to load the memory with the thoughts of other men. Beattie. ALMA MATER Far above all institutions, Ever to traditions true, Stands our noble Alma Mater, Glorious to view. Far removed from whirling traffic Of the hustling town, Arched against the brow of heaven, Looks she proudly down. Honors held by victories won, She will cherish to the last. Each one adds a tribute rare. As the years fly past. Though enduring fame be thine, Though thy praises travel far, Truth shall always be thy motto, Wisdom ' s bright alluring star. Alma Mater, live forever ! All thy children praise thy name. Ties of love will always bind us Ever more to sing thy fame. [4]
