The difference between a pedagog and a demagog is that one works against ignorance and the other gets a profit out of it. , Pk :if if Personality is that thing about your personal appearance and bearing that gives you a rati-ng. A strong personality is one that grows on your face from the result of doing your best honestly. wk rk Pk The man who waits for things to turn up finds his toes do it first.

Qur Appreciation - After all the money that has been spent i-n building our school and equiping it so that it will ,come up to the standard, it is up to us to show those who have worked so untiringly in our interests, that we really appreciate what has been done for us. One of the best ways we can show that appre- ciation we should have, is for us to protect our school property and keep our desks, rooms, school and surroundings in good order and repair. Let us be 100 per cent. students, loyal and true. Let our lives and conduct be such that anybody may point with pride to anyone of us and say, There is a student of Jefferson High School. Raphael Borntrager, '22. The Parent-Teachers' Qrganization During the early part of the year a Parent-Teachers' organization was formed. Mr. Jesse Buckmaster was elected as president of the organization, Elmer Stuber vice-president, and Jesse Snyder as secretary. This organization was formed for the benefit of the parents, mainly, to cooperate wi-th parents, aid in helping the children to get as many benefits as city children and to promote the general welfare of the community. The meetings were held every two Weeks, and it is safe to say that over 150 people were present at every meeting. Excellent programs were prepared at each meeting among which were debates, musical programs, Riley day programs and meetings on all patriotic occasions. We, as teachers of this school, believe that we have been greatly aided through the excellent cooperation of the parents of this school. The success of any busi-ness iirm depends upon its community, and if a community works hand in hand with the head, success is sure to follow. So it is with the school. The school wishes, and encourages every cooperation possible and with these assurances Jefferson High School will advance to that one desired goal: a higher realm of civilization. May these meetings con- tinue to progress as they so far have and that this school will be the coni- munity Center. Ervin DOW- l15l
