CLASS OF 1935 - v-it WWAWKMA, i it 0 O edge, glorying in their daily appointed tasks. Whole-heartedly they strive to gain the topmost crests of wisdom, that they not only may better their own lives, but also the lives of others. These elements constitute a true school. In such a school pupils are equipped and then tested for the larger battles of life and as they go forth conquering and to conquer, the fame and fortune of these former scholars will some day return to their Alma Mater. Fame of this nature is indestructible. The Socrates and Platos of other generations are still remembered along with the great scientists, doctors, and inventors. And the Edisons, Mayos, and Pasteurs of this century will, in like manner, never be forgotten. Therefore to strive for the more important things of life is the more desirable. But We should not decry athletics, for physical training is one of the cardinal principles of education. If a student having good marks in his studies goes in for athletics, he should be commended. Athletics, along with a scholastic career, is the best means of equipping one's self for life's great work. It develops the pluck and patience of the participants and teaches them to win with honor and lose without disgrace. While the mind is being developed, the body is also, the result being a perfect co- ordination between mind and body. Henry Van Dyke has expressed this idea very clearly in several lines of verse. Not ancient halls and ivy-mantled towers, When dull traditions rule With heavy hand youth's lightly springing powersg Not spacious pleasure courts, And lofty temples of athletic fame, Where devotees of sports Mistake a pastime for 1ife's highest aim, Not fashion, nor renown Of wealthy patronage and rich estates, No, none of these can crown A school with light and make it truly great. But masters strong and wise, Who teach because they love the teacher's task, And find their richest prize In eyes that open and in minds that ask, And ones, with heart aglow To try their youthful vigor on their work, Eager to learn and grow, T'n-Fovfi-TW TTWTTWTWTT' T
