“Thou who wouldst sec the lovely aud the wild Mingled in harmony on Nature’s face. Ascend our rocky mountains. Let the foot Fail not with weariness, for on their tops The beauty and the majesty of earth, Spread wide beneath, shall make thee to forget The steep and toilsome way.” —Bryant, Monument Mountain

I lave you ever stopped for a (]uiet nioiiienr to think how school life resembles a mountain- As the sophomore comes to school, there lies ahead of him a mountain. On its paths he will experience many of the happiest events of his life, but, nevertheless, it is a mountain, and like all mountains, its ascent is steep and its paths rough. At the end of his first year in the new school, the sophomore feels that he has made great progress. 1 le has climbed the first lap of the trail, has become accustomed to new surround- ings, new friends, new tasks; he is one-third of the loner way up the mountain. Resting at the end of the junior year, the student begins to think about his plans for the future. I le can see a little of the world around him, can recognize some of the obstacles that he will experience. Above lies the hardest, yet the most enjoyable part of the climb, and as the scholar ascends, more and more of the world around becomes visible. Then at last, the loose rocks and rough paths forgotten, the senior stands on the very peak and ahead are all the hopes and goals of the future.
