Miss Haynes Sponsor BETTER THAN OUR BEST As Father Time always keeps tomorrow be- fore us, so must we always keep a clear shadow of our fleeting best just within our grasp. The best, Ave realize, must cease to be our best as we move toward it. Always must we strive for that which is just beyond our grasp. Our best, like a jeweled crown which turns to the food of experience at our touch, must be far- ther away and richer than that which has gone before. One better than our best — this must be our goal. How unfortunate it would be to grasp, with hands void o f the magic touch of ambition, the crown of attainment and place it on our heads. How Ave should starve for that nourishing morsel which would strengthen us for another step ! Often only one timely self-imposed in- centive for progress is all that is needed to take advantage of the inertia of our accomplish- ment to make it Better Than Our Best. TO THE FACULTY When we. the June 1930 Seniors, leave Emmerich Manual Training High School, in our minds there will be an impression that will not be fully appreciated until future years. Our appreciation without doubt goes to the members of our distinguished faculty, who through our time at Manual have been an out- standing influence in advising us. This advice and, perhaps, resented suggestions will be re- flected in our characters and also our successes in years to come. When we entered here as freshmen, we soon came to know and realize the fact that the members of our faculty were people out of the ordinary. They seemed to take interest in each and every student, and as four years have rolled by we find that the interest has not died but that it is stronger than ever. So, in our humble way, we, the June 1930 Seniors, wish to thank the members of the Manual Training faculty with our appreciation for the interest that has been shown us. John Kosaveach,, Associate Editor. OUR AIM After the climax of a four-year sojourn on the elements of education, the inevitable ques- tion arises Where do we go from here? This question can be answered only by the individ- ual, but one thing definitely applying to every individual may be stated. Pick one star to shoot at, and aim at that goal. If there are others in the way, get them too. Bring them down to your feet, but do not linger over them for the big one must be cap- tured. This is just a new way of repeating an age old axiom that a rolling stone gathers no moss, but even now it is as logical as it was the day it was first written. For anyone starting out to succeed, a good tiling to keep in mind is the one ultimate pur- pose. And a good way to do this is to make each immediate one a stride in the right direc- tion. Jack Saulcy, Editor. APPRECIATION The Senior Booster staff extends its true gratitude and appreciation to all who helped in any way to make this book a success.
