In order to cope successfully with these existing conditions a great deal of intellectual training is essential. The post-graduate readily realizes the value of mental discipline. The High School of Commerce presents an interesting field to the graduate of academic high schools who desires a business training. Its basis is practical, its course of study is rational, and its instruction is unexcelled. A mind having been for four years systematically cultivated by intense mental activity should, at the expiration of that time be trained in those subejets which prepare for the responsible work of life. The Business Course affords scope for keen and close observation, it combines thought and action. Skilful guidance, which is absolutely necessary at this point, is found in the High School of Commerce. We hope that in future years many will appreciate the excellent instruction which this school affords, and take advantage of it, as we, the postgraduates of ’10, have done. Wc wish others success in this work, because to be a leader here means leadership in the world, for real life is reproduced within the class-room. Our instructors cause us to reflect the life of the out-side world. We hope that others may enjoy the same pleasant companionship with teachers and pupils. With loyalty to our own schools, we still say, “Here’s to the Post Graduates of High School of Commerce!” IMOGENE PILCHER, WINIFRED HINCKLEY, Class ’09, Lincoln High School. OLGA KERRS, Class ’08, South High School. 32
