Klinger Charles Kingsley, famous man of letters, was once asked, 'Tell me the secret of your strong joyous life.” He replied, I had a friend.” So it is with us. Our friends, their hobbies, attitudes, and their beliefs have direct bearing upon lives and what we do with them. Oftimes because of a friend s interest in an extra-cur- ricular program, we too are drawn into its web. With the added incentive of our friends’ com- panionship, we investigate this new activity and are more likely to join in vigorous participation. Pat Lenhardt, a member of the International Friendship Committee, which is comprised of exchange students and three students at large, was encouraged to apply for the American Field Service Scholarship as a result of these friendly contacts. Phis summer, she will cross the ocean to live with a German family. With a friend's invitation, we may be asked to add our talents to the Publicity, Student- Faculty, or Assembly committees. Each, in its turn, will aid in developing perhaps previously unknown skills in journalism, art, debate, social relations, keen judgment, and ability to discern. Even in English classes, via group work, we may unearth hidden dramatic abilities or a touch for developing original programs. In investigating our friend’s avocations, we may have found our own. As a wise man said: “Our friends see the best in us, and by that very fact call forth the best from us.” Flans for Saturday’s parly are hashed ocer by F. Lewis, A. Febbo, L. Reinhardt, . .
