10 THE ORANGE AND BLACK SCHOOLS - A NECESSITY BETTY BROWN IGH SCHOOL attendance today is far greater than it was years ago. In by-gone years attendance in school was only a matter of course, but today schools are a necessity. Year after year the complexities and turmoil of this peculiar world become more bewildering, the preparation for the future becomes dif- ferent and improved, thus emphasizing the importance of schools and education. But why strive for an education? Merely this, our modern schools today prepare us for the darings and challenges the future may hold for us.

It is not the purpose of high school education to train us so that we could step right into a good position in any specific profession, but, rather to give us a general but comprehensive idea of what knowledge and train- ing is needed in all the professions and aid us in the choice of a life work. We study the sciences to barely touch the surface in knowledge of the things around us: but what is more important, our curiosity is aroused and we are made to think. We study mathematics, not to learn and remember the value of X, but to increase the ability of our brain in
