Chances are no one would be more amazed than Mr. Emer- son were he here today to watch us literally trying to hitch on to a star. But we suspect that wasnlt exactly what he had in mind. He was using the metaphor to enlarge his reader's horizons - to bring him out of himself. The purpose of education, too, is just that - to expand one's thinking - oneis spirit beyond one's self. There is nothing more pathetic than a sharpened intellect preoccupied only with its own little world - self-comfort, self-security, self-safety. We believe from your training at Clover Park that you will know how to keep your feet on the ground. However, we hope your training is such that your spirit - the real you - will do some soaring. Only through giving of yourself to a worhwhile cause or need -4 by hitching to a star, inetaphorically speaking - will you give meaning to the education your community gave you. May that education be a launching platform for the brightest, most useful life possible. T. OLAI HAGENESS, Superintendent. 6
