THE SCHOOL—an agent of democracy Foreword One year, two years, ten, twenty, and twenty-five years! We, at the end of the twenty-fifth year of our school, can look back and readily see our progress. Science progresses, government progresses, the arts progress, and education progresses. In the past quarter-century. Edison High School has taken many forward steps. Perhaps at first they were faltering, as a baby’s, but as time has slipped by, they have become firm and solid. Improvement is inevitable to humanity. Where there are democratic people, there will be growth in democratic practices. In some cases, it is so slow that it is almost imperceptible, and sometimes it is breath-taking in its speed. Many students have graduated from Edison. Because they have learned and practiced the principles of democracy which are taught here, they have become better citizens. They have not yet reached the ultimate in their potentialities, but they are advancing, step by step. In recognition of this silver anniversary, the Wizard staff of 1947 has chosen as its theme: twenty-five years of progressive democracy. Paq 2
