the leader ofthe floc: My dear Sfudenfs: As leader of fhe flock l mighf have greefed you as My dear Birds, buf fhe ferms birds is somefimes used in an uncomplimenfary sense, and fhis is no occasion for possible misundersfanding. Some of you may feel fhaf because of our greaf solici- fude for you, you have been un'l'il now like birds in a gilded cage and as soon as you leave our shelfered halls you will be on fhe wing, happily soaring and singing like fhe colorful oriole. Before you 'rake off, however, if mighf be helpful fo ponder fhe advice of fhe poef: The bird +l1a+ soars on highesf wing, Builds on fhe ground her lowly nesf: And she fhaf dofh mosl' sweefly sing, Sings in 'l'he shade when all fhings resfg -ln lark and nighfingale we see Whal' honour hafh humilil'y. lf is well fo remember also fhaf no bird soars foo high if he soars on his own wings. l frusf fhaf we have succeeded in impressing upon you fhe qualifies of humilify and self reliance. The life fhaf is worfh living, and fhe only life fhaf is worfh living, is fhe life of efforf fo affain whal' is worfh sfriving for. A man's reach should exceed his grasp, else whaf's a heaven for? Could we give buf one gifl' fo every one of you if would be fhe forch of inspirafion-fhe ambifion fo dream and fo do and fo be according fo your falenfs. This is fhe gif-l' efernal. The worfh of a school and fhe sfrengfh of a feacher are measured more by fhe passing on of fhis forch fhan by masfery of fhe peH'y accuracies and fechnics. Has Evander Childs High School aroused your infellecfual curiosify, promofed your sense of social responsibilify, and inspired you fo sfudy, fo fhink, and fo keep on learning? How forfunafe we should all be if fhe answer were a unanimous yes l Sincerely, Principal
