True, its influence must extend beyond the walls that enclose it if it is to be an effective part of life, but it is, nonetheless, a place where, for several hours each day, the students live an existence apart in a small but well- defined society. Like every organized body, a school must demand of its mem- bers that they contribute to its welfare their energy and their willingness to work. There are, in school life, small tasks to be performed -- jobs such as cleaning a blackboard, or dusting a shelf, or arranging a bulletin board. Not great in themselves, they are, nevertheless, details in a vast pattern. To neglect them is to disrupt the harmony of the group: their faithful performance, on the other hand, insures the order and smooth flow of scholastic life. The student who wholeheartedly gives of his time and his labor to further school projects whether big or small learns far more than can be acquired in a book. For he learns that i.n giving there is happiness, that in serving there is joy. -50-

,.g,,.,!f , W ,Because man has a mind, he is like God. The intellect is the most precious natural gift bestowed on the human being, and in the hands of each individual lies its development. Its growth must come about through the acquisition of truth: mere knowledge, however, is not sufficient. It is essential that the indi- vidual make his own the facts learned, by profound reflection leading to under- standing and appreciation. Only when hisilearning of facts is accompanied by intense thinking does a person really move toward education. However, each must make his own choice to study or not to study. Teachers explaing tea- chers guide, but they cannot learn for their students. He who chooses not to study suffers a tremendous lossg he who Healy accepts the challenge of study possesses incalculable wealth. icmalafs ,, iff' 6i ,.ujifT5.i Wi? ' e'f'?f.?- f:E9af: fn?- Z .
