Jlillfnppm, MR. JAMES B. NASH Supervising Principal i HE American colonists inherited trom their English ancestors a purpose and a plan to provide such preparatory training for their talented sons as would enable them to pursue a college course successfully and later to assume honorable positions in Church and State. lt was, however, left to the American people of the past century to devise and develop a system of free education that shouldygive equal opportunity to all, regardless of sex, social position, or future purpose in life. l 1937

' PPM Today, the high school aims to serve the interests of the majority who do not go to college as well as the interests of the minority who do go. The high schools of our nation are serving millions of youths who yearly are taking their places in a society for which the schools have endeavored to fit them. With the Industrial Revolution came new problems in our society, competition became keener, the more alert survived, while the less pre- pared floundered. lnto this great maelstrom, you graduates of the class of '37 are to be cast, to battle your way to the shore of your desires. The struggle will be a taxing oneg but with your preparation, you are well fitted to survive the many deterring features in life's encounters. The title of your annual, HilItopper , indicates that you have reached the summit in your educational tasks. Thus far in life you have attained success, thus far in your competition with your fellowman, in your social relationships with him you have reached that peak which indicated victory. Your have followed the leadership of your parents and teachers noblyg but now that guiding hand must leave you to rely upon the faculties which were developed through this long process of learning. You are possessed with the same indomitable spirit as your fore- fathers who conquered in their battle with Nature. You are imbued with the perseverance of those men who dug deeply into the bowels of the earth for their sustenance, who toiled with picks and shovels for long and weary hours to build an institution, equal to the finest in the state. Endowed with that spirit, there is no question but that you will carry on where they left off. Therefore, the class of '37 should be a valuable addition to adult society, and its contributions to that society should make it a better world in which to live. James B, Nash. 7937 Page Ten
