CATHEDRALITE W.XSlllIlSlOn Jflll Qlll' SCllOOlS Cxlitl Colleges By Charles W. Eliot ND what shall I say in behalf of the three hun- dred thousand teachers of the United States? They deserve some mention to-day. None of them are rich or famous g most of them are poor, retiring, and unnoticed, but it is they who are building a perennial monument to Washington. It is they who give him a million-tongued fame. They make him live again in the young hearts of successive . generations, and fix his image there as the American siswsn AxucHA1mA ideal of a public servant. P m al It is through the schools and colleges of the country and the national literature that the heroes of any people win lasting renown 5 and it is through the same agencies that a nation is molded into the likeness of its heroes. This local commemoration of one great event in the life of Washington and of the United States is well, but it is as nothing compared with the incessant memorial of him which the schools and colleges of the country maintained from genera- tion to generation. I have mentioned only the pupils and teachers now in schools and collegeg but all the generations for a hundred years past have sound- ed the praise of the Virginia country gentleman, and countless generations to come will swell the loud acclaim. What a reward is Washington's! What an influence is his, and will be! One mind and will transfused by sympathetic instructions into millionsg one character, a standard for millionsg one life a pattern for all public men, teaching what greatness is, and what the pathway to undying fame.

CATHEDRALITE Catlicclralis Chronicle 'XDXD ATHEDRAL High School began its history in 1905 with one student graduating. Little did that lone graduate realize that she was laying the foundation for the graduation of seventy-seven seniors in 1932. Since that first graduation many important ad- ditions were made to the school. If the alumni should come back today, they would look in ad- English, Art miration at the impressive flag pole donated by the Cathedral Players in 1931. As their gaze would travel to the top of the pole, it would see there an attractive United States flag-a gift of the juniors of 1931. A plot of grass, octagonally shaped and cemented in, is placed at the base of the pole, beautifying the appearance of the school ground. As many of the former students are ardent lovers of sports, they would be arrested by the new tennis courts. And what inviting spots they are! Vivacious players, who never seem to become fatigued are always there after the season has opened. Of course, any alumnus who Walks upon the campus, enters the school. He will behold in wonder the regularity with which classes are called and dis- missed because of the addition of the new electric clock in the corridor. The first floor also possesses several other new features. The faculty claims a new social science teacher and athletic coach in the person of Mr. Heenan.
