GUIDE AND ADVISE Dear Students: The activities of a school have become one of the essential parts of our modern education. The older theory was that education was mainly mental in nature and concern. Today the theme of the new education is all-aroundness. It recognizes that when a child walks into the school all of him comes ing previously the mind was the entire and only con- cern. Today in our complicated system of living it has become recognized that the student must be de- veloped entirely. Not only must he be developed mentally but he must be developed in a manner whereby he becomes acquainted with situations that will face him later on in life. The activities of a school furnish both a varied and complete opportunity for students to acquaint themselves with the many situations that are neces- sary in the development of a feeling of responsi- bility and duties in becoming a good citizen. Opportunities that are parallel to those the student must meet later on in life are afforded in DeVilbiss High School. Show us a good citizen and we will show you an asset to the community. ROBERT E.

OUR DEANS Dear Seniors, Graduation is the end of a chapter, a chapter enlivened by hard work, lasting friendships, long-remembered triumphs, and the inspiration and friendship of inspired teachers. Cin some cases, too, there have been extra pages seasoned by deans' summons, blue slips, and seventh hour classes.D Commencement is well named, for if graduation means the end of a period of life, commencement is the beginning of a glorious new chapter full of promise, high adventure, and new and ever- increasing opportunities for young men and women of vision, daring, character, and a capacity for hard work. To all who leave DeVilbiss High School to go into industry or military service, to enter college or to establish new homes, may this new chapter mean broader fields of service and even greater success and happiness. RUSSELL BROWN, Dean of Boys Through the media of the classroom, sports, clubs, and numerous other activities we have tried to teach you a way of life that will bring you the greatest happiness and the attainment of your cherished goal. As you step out into the world of men and women, all of whom are seeking some form of recognition, remember that mere attainment of your goal cannot bring you complete satisfaction. True greatness can be achieved only by means of wisdom, kind- ness, tolerance toward your fellow men, and by continued QFOQ- ress toward a goal. Keep on keeping on, and the glory of lite will be yours MILDRED PASCH, Dean of Girls 'vi 12
