uloerinfenclenf ana! Zyoarcl To Cen tral Students: W'hat greater riches could there be than the guarantee of Life, Freedom, Pursuit of Happiness, Universal Educa- tion, Opportunity for Service, Enthusiasm, and the privilege of saying I am an Americann? Years ago our Eorefathers struggled and endured muchg sacriiiced wealth, po- sition and their lives to establish and maintain a nation which would ensure the American way of Life for those who come afterwards. It is the primary function of public schools to train for good citizenship. Good citizenship is not measured by knowledge alone but rather by desirable attitudes and actions which are reflected in everyday life. The knowledge of what is right is not suflicientg it is far more important to observe the laws of our land than to be able to name them all. Equality and Justice are significant privileges which we as Americans enjoy. In order to preserve these we must not only appreciate and observe them, but we must guard against those forces which would take them from us. MR. L. J. SCI-IULTZ Loyalty to our government is most important, and in your public school career you have learned that a good American citizen is, first of all, a loyal one. You must realize that in no other country in the world do your men and women have the glorious opportunities that your country offers you. Let us thank God for this great country of ours and ask His help to keep it so. L. J. SCHULTZ Since 1935 Mr. L. Schultz has served capably as superintendent of the Cape Girardeau public schools. Previously he taught industrial arts and coached athletics in Maryville from 1916 to 1918, holding a similar position in Flat River from 1919 to 1921. From this system he went to the Morning Sun Consolidated District in Iowa where he served Hrst as principal and then as superintendent during the succeeding year. His next position was that of instructor in mathematics and industrial arts in Pontiac, Illinois, from which school he came to Central in 1925 as teacher of industrial arts. This work he directed until 1928 when he was made principal, succeeding to the superintendency upon the resignation of Mr. A. Whiteford in 1935. Mr. Schultz earned his degree of Bachelor of Science in Education from the Cape Gir- ardeau Southeast Missouri State Teachers College and his Master of Arts degree from the Uni- versity of Iowa where he received recognition for outstanding work in the field of education.
