of Burgard can be found in all nearby colleges and uni- versities. Today many of our teachers are former stu- dents of this school who believed enough in our form of education to devote their lives so that others might receive the same benefits. IN RETROSPECT - - Shades of Daniel Upton! He was the first pioneer in vocational and technical education in Buffalo. He began the recruitment of that ever-growing army ofinstructors and students in this newer type of education who have carried the torch which he lighted in those early days. What a mental cavalcade passes as we recall, for in- stance, the development of the printing course since the first hand press was purchased. This press stands in silent tribute to those beginnings in 1910 and is an efiective comparison to the many shops and Sl00,000 equipment of today. lt is significant that a little over 300 years ago in the Virginia Colony, that staunch old Royalist Governor, Sir William Berkeley condemned the printing press because, it makes people too cen- sorious of their superiors? In his report to King Charles II he wrote: I thank God there are no schools in my colony, and no printing. The old Royalist is probably restless in his grave when he sees that not only do we have schools but that these same schools teach printing to further education in still more schools. We have come far in the field of education since the days of Governor Berkeley, and among the many accom- plishments of American education, BURGARD VO- CATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL occupies a pre-eminent position in the world of secondary education, and it will forever stand as a monument to the one man who contributed most to its birth and growth,-WILLIAM B.
