The 1937 ' Echo Modern trends in the field of secondary edu- cation are placing more and more stress on pupil participation as a preparation for the adult activities to follow graduation. We are, to some extent, handicapped by our physical plant in developing this idea to its fullest possibilities: but only the character, honesty and willingness on the part of the student personnel can make any educational institution worthwhile. The school is just as good or bad, just as intelligent as the pupils whose names appear on the daily register. We, as teachers in the junior and senior high schools, attempt to take the boys and girls as they come to us from the grade schools, enrich their lives in knowledge, health, socialminded- ness and other essential qualities for a well- rounded lifeg keeping in mind at all times the benefits to be secured are dependent upon good leadership supported by well-informed, Willing followers. HOWARD E. GILL Education has a task today, Social change is taking place. It can be brought about in two ways: one, orderly and gradually, dominated by enlightenment and directed intelligence: the other, sudden, violent, terrible, based upon ha- tred, desperation, obfuscation, and delay. y Social problems may be solved through wide dissemination of information and the application Page 7 Q JAM .WJ ww ' Z?

The function of any agency dealing with pub- lic problems depends upon its personnel, the conditions under which work must be performed, and the enlightment of the public. Cherryvale has taken aggressive leadership in demanding trained personnel in its schools. Working conditions have been more difficult. The enlightenment of the public reaches a Wide The high schools of today are quite different institutions than those attended even twenty years ago. Teachers today are expected to be educators first, subject matter specialists, second. A broad social philosophy is a first requisite for modern day teaching. The transferring and in- culcating of this philosophy into the lives of others is not theijob of the small minded or the drone. The parent, the teacher, and the student need have closer bonds of understanding and trust today than ever before. The acquisition of facts must become secondary to acquiring the techniques of adjusting to social changes and The Board of Education, the Administration, and members of the Faculty, trust that the larger social patterns implied above may cause minor conflicts to sink into oblivion in the lives of students as the problems of adult citizenship Faithfully yours, I.
