THE TORCH APPRECIA TION CPRIZE EDI TORIAL5 HE lack of appreciation is everywhere. Men have failed to appreciate prosperity until they are destitute. The sunshine is unthought of until it rains. Spring brings the birds and flowers, clothes the fields and trees in green, and yet the joy of spring is not valued until Su111lll6l',S heat or winter's cold overtakes us. Price- less books lie on the shelves unread, and health and happiness are unappreciated, until illness and sadness take their place. Perhaps similar things might be said concerning the pupil's opportunities, which he fails to appreciate during his twelve years of public school life. The joy derived from things achieved is best realized in later life when the student looks back upon his earlier life training, with gratitude and appreciation. He finds that his interest in art, music, literature, good citizenship, and the like, had its beginning in his school days. The public school pupil is not burdened with the financing of his education, the working out of the various courses, the types of books to be used, the management of school affairs, nor is he par- ticularly interesfted in the Work of the School Board. These things dawn upon his mind when he is about to leave the school, his teachers and school chunrs. It is then that he realizes that he has probably failed to show his appreciation. The saying, It is never too late to learn, can be applied to our beginning, now, to show our appreciation and esteem for those who have made our education thus far possible. To take up our next task, whether it is a higher education or a position, to put forth the best of our efforts to accomplish to the best of our abili- ties that which is before us. should be our ambition. Heretofore, classes and organizations have left to the school some memorial in recognition of their appreciation. As individ- uals, let us give as a memorial, a worthwhile life of service. To serve is to live, and to live is to serve? KATHRYN GOODLING, 531.
