SCHURZ BEAUTIFUL The ancient Greeks made the attain- ment of beauty the end of education and culture. ln architecture they incorporated the ideals of beauty which have remained as the basic patterns for all time. ln sculp- ture the beauty, symmetry, and harmony of their groups and figures have never been equalled and are the most exquisite classic models. The Greeks maintained that truth and beauty were closely re- lated and might be found, the one through the study of the other. Modern theory of education and culture does not disregard the Greek ideals of beauty and perfection. The unfolding of mental ability, the enlargement of spiritual capacity, and the growth of character can best be attained in an atmosphere of beau- ty and refinement. The appreciation of the aesthetic is not easily developed in an environment of filth and squalor. An ef- fort is made to make our school buildings beautiful as swell as serviceable. The Carl Schurz High School is second to none in the city in architectural beauty. The massive, substantial style has given l5l the building a dignity and beauty espe- cially fitting for a structure devoted to education. With the completion of the landscaping of the campus, the entire setting will be one of serene beauty. The beautiful auditorium, with its marvelous organ and complete stage equipment, is a feature in aesthetic and artistic educa- tion. The new library, admirably adapted in architecture and equipment and beauti- fully decorated with mosaics by Mr. Iohn Stephan, is an incentive to higher thinking and better living. Altogether, students of Schurz, let us hold before us the ideals of truth and beauty, and, appreciating the beautiful in art and nature, cooperate to preserve and enhance the beauty of our surroundings and thereby build for the perfection of our own characters and for the good of man- kind. 3 ' A-it G-4
