HIE NEW CRESCENT I LIKE TO WATCH A SCHOOLHOUSE I like to watch a schoolhouse At the starting of a day, Gathering so patiently Young folk who come its way. It shows a gracious tolerance; It gathers all who go— The laggard and wide awake, The brilliant and the slow. It gives itself unselfishly To all who come to seek; A great deal to the brave and strong, A little to the weak. 1 like to watch a schoolhouse As its charges break away. And it calmly settles back to wait Until another day. —Al Umnus. PitHt' Two

The New Crescent EVER INCREASING Ever Increasing has long been the motto of the El wood High School annual work. Keeping in tunc with the times, we, the class of '34, have tried to do our part in upholding this standard. It has been an uphill job, but still we feel we have lived up to the motto of Ever Increasing.” With these words stamped visibly before us, we are not able to remain still, but we must keep going, keep building, and keep increasing the annual in value and content. In The New Crescent which we have produced, we have tried to increase over last year’s book. Naturally, due to the financial conditions, the annual of '33 had to be made on a smaller scale; but we have worked with our chins up in order to increase the annual in all ways, and also to reset the start for Ever Increasing.” DEDICATION To our parents, as a small repayment for the many sacrifices they have so willingly made for us, for their sympathetic understanding in our failures and their pleasure in our success, and for their unceasing encouragement in the face of difficulties, we, the class of '34, dedicate this, The New Crescent. Published annually by the Elwood High School Elwood, Indiana
