Zllnrnunrh frnm the Zliarultg llere's to the Eureka High School! XVhat is the Eureka High School? Is it that uncouth and disproportioned tenement of wood, that shapeless dream of some forgotten builder, that monu- ment of antiquated architecture, that dear old structure rich in treasured associa- tions but tottering in beam and rafter. that creaking stairway hollowed by many a youthful tread, the crumbling wall and rifted ceiling, the teeming hallways narrowed at the call for room, that blind and useless tower which long has notched the western sky? No, not these, nor such as these, compose the Eureka High School. There is an entity apart from these. wholly intangible but just as real-a composite being endowed with spirit and possessed of certain tendencies. For four years young lives run parallel, surrounded by the same environment, subject to the same in- fluences, and animated by the same purposes, a veritable stream of life, renewed annually with inflowing freshness and vigor and diminished by those who leave to join the swelling tide of world experience. Such a community of life and hopes and purposes should and does create a spirit of fellowship, a unity of force and effort which brought to bear upon tl1e lives of persons at the most formative period cannot fail to leave impressions capable of lasting through life. This combination or sum total of all the agencies which affect the lives of students for good or ill constitutes the Eureka High School. A glorious and beneficent future to the Eureka lligh School! .
