A - . g- , QED and ISLACIQ A man is a bundle of relations, a knot of roots 'whose flower audi fruitage is the world. -EMEnsoN To the Senior Class of 1929 Each year of your school life has brought to you added difliculties and responsi- bilities to the end that most, if not all, of you are conscious of those inter-relationships and inter-dependencies which make possible the freedom and happiness of mankind. Life will test you to determine whether or not your school has fitted you for a society larger still-the World, in which you must now assume a deeper responsibility than has been your lot heretofore. If your roots are widely spread in the richness of those things which are our cultural heritage from the past-the ideals, the knowledge, and the relationships for which your Alma Mater stands, and if these things have become a part of your being-you need not fear whatever test may come. With your graduation will come commendations for your accomplishments and injunctions as to the manner in which to meet the new phases of life which lie before you. To such commendations I, perhaps, can add nothing. Indeed the greatest commendation you can receive on this earth is not comparable with your own con- sciousness of growth and purpose-coming as it must from obligations honestly met and work well done. You are your own best judge. And our mistakes,-of course we have made some-may they serve to make us broader, finer men and women. It is to be regretted that I do not know all of you with the same intimacy that I do some of you, for I am sure it would have multiplied the pleasure and inspiration which I have received from our association. Among your problems will be the development of the faculty of living and Work- ing with your fellowmen in an appreciative and co-operative manner. Then, too, you must learn to utilize your spare time in such a Way as to secure a maximum of happiness with none of the taint of cheapness or superficiality. Throughout your work and your play there must exist a purposiveness such as can only come through conscious. planning and effort. May your ideals be high but not narrow, your requirements of self, exacting, your courage unfaltering, your thinking liberal, and your tolerance great-more I could not wish for you. Your sincere friend, Principal of the High School. 1029 Page Twenty one

The establishment of right habits in the matter of composition is regarded as fundamental. Literature in the English course is not regarded as an end in itself, a body of facts to be learned, but as an instrument through which the student may be initiated into the spiritual heritage stored up for him in books. The course hopes to train the student to use his leisure time profitably and happily, to broaden and to deepen his sympathies, to enable him to understand how the race has loved and worked and suffered and laughed. It aims to make what he learns function nobly in reverence for law and tradition, for humanity, and for God. The English department, in breaking away from the older and more formal methods of teaching, lays emphasis upon meeting the individual needs of the student. To this end the department supervises such extra curricular activities as Sigma Lambda, the dramatic work, debate, and the editing of the Red and Black publications.
