Intellectual Achievement The fifth year instills in a small child a new at- titude towarcl instruction. He wants to know the social laws by which he is governed. He is con- scious of his ignorance and intellectual fallibility, yet he sets his own flying lessons and makes fre- quent forays into the unknown. Clinch Valley has also climbed the develop- mental ladder to a level of maturity. Greater or- ganization ancl emphasis on a strong, well- balanced curriculum are evident. lt is a year of decisiveness and preparation for greater growth in the future. ISAXC,
