T V Q 'TLV Z, Pantheon Art Gallery Paris, France foreword With the students of East High as the architects of tomorrow, lies the task of building higher the edifice of achievements wrought by the builders of the ages. This awe inspiring structure, built with careful hands against the ever threatening forces of nature, is the result of manis victory over the elements. The secret of this glorious feat rests on the firm foundation upon which its towering triumph stands. Thus must the students of East High strive now to lay securely the foundation for their architectural ambitions, that their contributions to the universe may in their fine way build ever higher the turrets of East High glory.

Unseen through the ages, builders have wrought the structures with careful hands until now, from their combined efforts we have the Egyptian, Greek, Roman, and Gothic types as the cardinal styles. 'F rom these has developed the colossal composite of our modern buildings. Man has fashioned architecture into a thing of magnificent beauty. He uses buildings as bodies to protect the mechanisms which sustain his exist- ence. ln such a way do our standards serve as the protecting edifices within which lofty ambitions perpetuate us toward higher goals. In life, as in architecture, the great aim is to build, and since the period spent in school is that age when the die of time engraves in us those things which are to be lasting qualities, we must make an effort to develop admir- able traits. Only in this way can the foundation thus formed be permanent. It is with this view that we have selected the great and unlimited sub- ject of Architecture as the theme of our book this year. 1 I 2 i X f

X , l Castle on the Rhine Dedication That period spent at high school is one of foundation, 'in which the character of the men and women of tomorrow is formed in the youth of today. To the teachers lies the task of shaping this character. They are the architects who help plan our lives, and lay the firm foundation upon which is built a strong and beautiful structure in after years. As the strength of any building depends on the foundation, so does the character of our lives rest on the achievements of our youth. No matter how beautiful and power- ful the structure may appear, if it is not built on solid ground, it will even- tually crumble and fall. Therefore, as a small token of gratitude for the wise council and friendship they have given us, we respectfully dedicate this 1929 edition of the Eastonia to the faculty of East High.
