9 ODIN ,J Tl-IE VALUE OF A I-HG!-I SCHOOL mia EDUCATION HARRIS HI. ROBERTSON Principal of the High School Illinois College, B.S. University of Illinois, M.A. Records show that the high school enrollment in the United States has increased several times over what it was in the early years of the present century. This is due in part, of course, to the increase in population, but to a much greater extent to the better op- portunities offered today for going to high school and to the fact that laws have been passed njaking secondary education free to all the children., with- i11 the country :ind in corporate towns and cities. A question of primary importance, however, which each high school stu- dent should ask himself or herself, is this: 'WVhy am I in high school F Is it because everyone is doing itw or because my parents send mei' or is it because I realize this great opportun- ity which is mine and am striving to make the most of the opportunity? There is little doubt as to which stu- dent will get the more out of high school work, and develop the better habits for the years to come. To the boy or girl who thinks of high school days as merely a period in which to mark time until some life work comes along, the time is worse than lost, for high school is Life and the habits gained him will remain through the years to come. It is my wish for you, the graduating class of 1936, that you will find in after-life that your high school days have been profitably spent, and as you take up the more serious business of living outside of school you will find already developed habits which will be of help to you in meeting the problems of our modern world. -H. M. Robertson. 1936 GALAHI

OLD COLONY SCHOOL CLASSES Den sista av tegelbyggnaderna uppfiird av kolonisterna, den gamla koloni skolbyggnaden, dbirme-d sym- boliserande kunskapsinhbirnstandet sisom det yttersta av alla mil. Last of the brick buildings to be erected by the colonists the old col- ony school thus symbolizes that education is the ultimate of all goals. 'iii l X -, if if A arf 7-N 7151 Q' 113: , y N
