lllllllllllllll To the friendly spirit which is a dominant part of all school life, the 1941 Orange and Black is dedicated. Two of the Senior class members Who best exemplify this spirit are Paul Wilhelm and Sally Houck who were chosen by the Senior class as the most friendly boy and the most friendly girl of the Senior class. Although the acquiring of a formal education is the primary purpose in attending school there are many things learned at school that are not in text books. One of the most important of these is how to make friends and how to be a friend. The importance of social competence is being emphasized more and more in the business world. Employers now consider a record of a studentis school activities and conduct as important as a transcript of his grades. Students will leave school and take up some vocation and most of them will probably forget such facts as the gram-molec- ular volume of a gas is 22.4 liters and that Josiah Bartlett was the third person to sign the Declaration of Independence. True friends which are made at school will never be forgotten. The effect which friends have on people's lives is immeasureable. In years to come students will take down their old annuals and the one thing most strongly brought to their minds will be their friends, the most important thing they have.
