As we grew older and our field of visio n was extended, we came to realize the folly of impulsively rushing into something and then to our sorrow discovering that we could not evade the often disastrous results. One of the most valuable lessons which we have learned in high school is the absolute neces- sity of thinking before we act.

Youth is carefree seems to be the slogan of many elders, and it is true that we are prone to laugh at that which more mature people find a serious problem. Perhaps that is why the con- stant prodding of our teachers makes us resent their interest and causes us to look on them as something not quite human. Still they are very much so, and each year they wave good-by to a group of adopted children with very little thanks and with scarcely a thought given to them. Then they turn to wel- come a new group for whom they will strive, work and plan with the same results. Yet how often will they think of us? More often, perhaps, than we imagine. Have you not seen old graduates return to high school on a visit to be greeted by name and even questions as to what they are doing? A teacher sees good in the worst pupils and knows the weaknesses of the best ones. How many times have they spoken a good word for us and saved us from many an unpleasant sit- uation? They are, in fact, a combination of (Continued on page 15)
