THE SPECTATOR When I tell you that pupils with the “ getting by attitude, meet in homes in the presence of parents and copy their work one from the other, without pretense of concealment, without apparent sense of wrong and without seeming thought of the consequences, you will understand why I plead for a closer, firmer, co-operative relation between the home and the school. I submit below, in a tabulated form, some of the elements which educa¬ tors seek to weave into the academic program. It is hoped that this outline may furnish definite ideas that may be used by the “getting by class as stepping stones to the true honor student group. Self-Mastery 1. Tongue 2. Temper 3.

THE SPECTATOR veryone is striving for success, unconsciously in some cases, for even children exert themselves to gain the things that they desire. When do we score our first big success? On commence- night, the culmination of our high school training, which has built up our characters for larger successes. A mind, well trained in high school is the very foundation of our lives, for it enables us to learn a lesson from each commonplace experience which comes to us through the years. You ask what a well-trained mind is. To have a well-trained mind one must have book learning, to be sure, for this gives the mind a broader scope of knowledge. One must read well, and possess a mastery of the English language to be acceptable to society. But there is a bigger lesson which starts when we are babies, grows when we are in grammar school, and strengthens a hundredfold in high school. This is the lesson which teaches us to give and take. In learning this lesson we receive many hard knocks. At first it seems all give and no take. But after comprehending this, we come to a larger lesson, co-operation. Co-operation with our parents comes first, then with our schoolmates and teachers. Co-operation is necessary in all walks of life, for we find that everyone does not meet things from the same viewpoint. By our progress along the lines of co-operation, in school activities we have learned to give and take. Then comes the next step in our learning. It is the true understanding, which results from this close relationship and hearty co-operation with our comrades. In learning this we have overcome one of the greatest obstacles in life, the lack of understanding. If we truly understood our comrades, the people of our nation, the people of other nations, there would be no quarrels, no petty troubles, no wars. All the world would be in harmony, the child with the parent, the student with the teacher, the citizen with his nation, the nation with other nations. So we find the motto, “Give and Take,” backed by co-operation and understanding is the foundation of our lives, the keystone of success and harmony. This is the forceful element, which must be molded into the characters of the young American citizens. M
