O STIMULATE in youth a striving for the true and beautiful in life is perhaps the paramount purpose of education. The National Honor Society of Holland High School through which the abstract ideals are rewarded in a tangible manner, is an invaluable aid in the realization of that aim. To raise the standard of scholarship, to promote talent for leadership, to stimulate a desire to render service, and to foster the development of character in the students of Holland High School is the purpose of the National Honor Society as set forth in the constitution. Scholarship, service, leadership, and good character are the requisites on which elections to the organization are based. Membership in the National Honor Society is the highest distinction that may be paid to any student. The glory, however, is incidental, as its real intent is to inspire members in their quest for the lofty and the noble and to challenge undergraduates to attain to the high ideals. The flaming torch, the Society's emblem, symbolizes the steady blaze of unsullied character, the illuminating light of wisdom and understanding, the radiant glow of friendship and service, and the challenging beacon of leadership. Only Seniors who rank in the upper third of the class are eligible to membership. Of the upper third, a limited number, not exceeding fifteen per cent of the class, are chosen by the faculty. This year's group is one of the largest since the Society was organ- ized in Holland High School in the spring of 1923. The influence of the National Honor Society is being felt in colleges and universi- ties and in the world at large where members are already distinguishing themselves. The honor bestowed upon its members is not an end in itself but an incentive to further service and usefulness. E241

This senior play rivaled the plays of all years and played to four large audiences. The cast of this play was especially well adapted to its nine particular roles, says Miss Lindsley, the coach, and, perhaps this accounts for the group's splendid character portrayal and interpretation of clever lines. The heavy roles of Pa and Ma Heller were carried by james Boter and Angelyn Van Lente, whose constant bickering proved to be a source of much amusement for the audience. The children of the family were seventeen-year-old Willie, Earnest Tirrell, twelve-year-old Annabelle, Athalie Roestg and the sweet twenty-one-year-old daughter Louise, Marie Dalman. These five composed the family upstairs. Louise Heller's young love, Charles Grant, was none other than our own La Verne Scheerhorn. The part of his mother, Mrs. Grant, was taken by Lois Geerds, and the role of his younger brother Herbert was carried by Eitel Eberhardt. The talkative dressmaker, Miss Calahon, commonly known as Gertrude Meengs, was a most interesting old maid Those who saw this play say that they will never forget the lazy Willie, the sassy Annabelle, the lovely Louise, the nagging Ma, nor the good old Pa Heller. They state that all partsefmajor and minor-were splendidly interpreted and that from the opening crash of Annabellels practice to the happy exit of Charles and Louise, the audience was perfectly entertained. who still retained a keen interest in men. i-263 X Senior Tlazy ' 1' f 'J if ' ' LL
