Johnson School Creed XYe helieve in our school as an institution so organized and carried on as to give to boys and girls a triple training that is necessary for a well- rounded life. NVe believe firmly in the coordinate training of the head. the heart. and the hand, for though each one is necessary. neither can he of great use alone. VVe believe that a life worth living must embody mental satisfaction. industrial pursuits, and a spiritual outlook, therefore, our various sull- jects and activities have been so planned and selected hy us and our elders as to ultimately develop one or more sides of our educational tri- angle. XVe pledge that in all our endeavors we shall strive to grow mentally. physically, and spiritually strong, for we know that only such a triple development can lnake a real life, and in the final analysis a true Ameri- can citizen. en -Q' LET'S HAVE THE BEST SIIIIOOIX' By Lucy li.
