ON PARADE Ability to show up well on parade does not come by chance. It grows out of long hours of previous training and intelligent practice. Only those who have anticipated and prepared for the responsibilities ahead are really qualified to participate. The emergency does not make men; it merely reveals them. All of us have been, and shall continue to be, on parade. Each will be expected to perform satisfactorily in whatever activity he may engage. Eager spectators will observe us along the line of march. As in the past, our teachers, classmates and parents have watched and evaluated our performances, so shall we continue to be tested in the crucible of adult participa- tion in community and world activities. Prepared by our years of study and training together we shall go forward. We shall make glad those who have put their confidence m us. There is a tide in the affairs of men Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune: Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows, and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat; And we must take the current when it serves. Or Jose our ventures. BOARD OF DIRECTORS A. W. Gallatin, Treasurer Dr. J. W. Thomson, President D. L. Haffner, Secretary

E. Vaughn Minniear, Principal Walter S. Painter, Superintendent PARADE ROUTERS Greatness is the composite of many little things well planned and efficiently executed. Great things are accomplished by people who make the most of every opportunity, however small it may seem. When evaluated by this standard Mr. Painter and Mr. Minniear rank at the top. They not only have planned well our educational program but also have executed it efficiently. Their lives are a challenge of leadership, action, and dependa- bility to every person marching onward in the parade of life. Lives of great men all remind us We may make our lives sublime. And departing leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. IN MEMORIAM Mrs. Robert Ellis Her pleasant voice in joyous tones Made glad our scenes of strife; Of all the lessons that she taught The greatest was her life. Victory she saw in every trial, Pleasure in every pain, Strength in every weakness. Sunshine through every rain. There was no death! From day to day We smile in our sorrow; Her memory is teaching still, The lesson for tomorrow. —I. R.
