DR. HOWARD D. WOOD y Principal ln the days when there were no automo- biles it was a special privilege and an honor to be above the common people by riding on a horse, a cheual. Along with this honor went the responsibility for being chiualrous, for the cheualier must prove his superiority by being more considerate and more willing to serve than the people of lesser station. Like- wise if a person was worthy to be in the king's court, he must be courteous. Now that horses and courts are out of date, some folks fear that the day of the automobile has outmoded courtesy and chiv- alry, bringing a new code of manners which l may call automocracy, whose devotees or addicts are automophilous. The name does not sound attractive, does it? But these peo- ple are not attractive. They are always look- ing out for their own rights and haven't time to think of the needs of others. Fortunately few of these stay in our school. We hope that our atmosphere is not conducive to their growth. We hope that King Arthur would never seem out of place if he were in our midst. We hope that our students will always be distingushed for their chivalry, courtesy, and nobility. FREDERICK E. HAWKINS, Vice-Principal It is rather significant that the class of January, 1945, has taken for its general theme King Arthur and his Knights. This class has sent numbers of its -members into the service of our country. Many more are planning to enter after graduation. To such a class the idea of service is paramount. You are on a quest similar to the Knights' quest of the Holy Grail. The Grail was originally part of the Celtic sagas which told of a hero who journeyed to the land of the shades and brought back the Grail, the inexhaustible vessel of plenty. Christianization of the Celtic saga made of the legend a vehicle for moral and religious teaching. All of the stories by De Troyes, Wolfram, Malory, and Tennyson empha- size the spiritual side, glorifying morality and righteousness. As you go forth, may you keep alive your search for truth, beauty, and a rich life. We have confidence in you and bid you Godspeed, HOWARD D. WOOD, Principal MR. FREDERICK E. HAWKINS Vice-Prirzci pal
