A Fundamental and Pressing Need, The modern high school should afford the widest and best oppor- tunities for the youth of any particular community to make wise choices as to their future careers. This opportunity is not given when only two or three courses of study are offered, and these the traditional cultural courses. The Bucyrus High School offers the traditional courses-College Preparatory and Scientific-both of which admit to colleges, and both are necessary. XVe offer also a newer and practical course, Commer- cial, which has been a popular and utilitarian course for the past six years. But we have not motor-minded courses of study, Since half of the pupils entering high school are motor-minded, and since much more than half of all successful men and women are motor-minded, it behooves the high schools to wake up and train this type of youth. VVhat Bucyrus High School needs is more courses tending to the practi- cal to more fully meet the requirements of an industrial, agricultural and commercial age. These courses can hardly be provided for with the present building accomodations, The fundamental and pressing need, therefore, of the Bucyrus schools is an adequate housing of the High School. The Union Build- ing will not do, for reasons previously set forth. A new high school building only will properly meet the conditions for additional courses of study, such as Manual Training, Domestic Science, Agriculture, Science, Art, Music, etc. These the times are demanding. Then, the number of pupils crowding in each year makes a new building a pressing need. We shall enroll 400 pupils next September-a number larger than several of the colleges of the state enroll. The duty of Bucyrus citizens is to keep these young men and women at home through the formative period, and to broadentheir chan-ces of success in life by offering wider choices for their future vocations. A new high school building, with such generous support from the Board of Education as has lately been given, will meet these fundamental and pressing needs in a far-seeing and 1-uture-realizing way. The Bucyrian staff has seen the vision, too, and has urged in every legitimate and gentlemanly way that the community take action soon on a new high school building, It was this same staff that devised and put on the big parade that argued through the eye better than ten orators through the ear our conditions. All honor then to the staff and the loyal pupils who have seen the vision and acted accordingly, and especially the class of 1915. who certainly were prompted by no selfish motive. .-9..
