Introduction THERE is an old saying that school is a preparation for life. In reality this is not strictly true, for school is life. Its disappointments are keen, yet it is joyous and happy, finding its expression in many varied activities. A high school in itself is a complete little community. It is a miniature of all the discouragements, hopes, failures, and successes in the larger world around it. There is the same striving for honor and the same desire to be of service. Friendships are formed, many of which will last through the years that are to come. Leaders develop, help to form the sentiment of the school, and leave their impression,—for good or bad,— even after they themselves are gone. The citizens, like their prototypes outside, are of all sorts; few actively bad. many actively good, and a great many who are good but need to be aroused. The pages of this book are devoted to a record of some of the more general activities of those who compose the community of the Ensley High School. There is something here of the real spirit of our institution. The same people will not be together next year. The individuals will change, yet the school will continue and the spirit will grow. We hope that, in the larger activities of city, state, nation, and world, all of us may be workers, loyal and true; because, in the smaller activities of our high school community, we have learned to be workers, loyal and true. i Professor L. Frazer Banks.
