F OREWORD FOR us in Lawrence it is a far cry from the little red schoolhouse of yester- year to the modern school of today. Education has entered new fields, and the three R's are now augmented by training and study in academic and practical subjects of all kinds. Yet it takes little imagination to see in Lawrence High School a grown up little red schoolhouse. The red walls, the bell tower, the sloping roof, all combine to bring out a striking similar- ity in form and architecture. But physical appearance is not all they have in common. The important personal relationship between teacher and pupil has not changed, nor has the emphasis on individual self-discipline. The 1939 Lawrencian has attempted to show this comparison graphically and, at the same time, to provide ct complete and accurate picture of Lawrence High School as it was this year. This annual has not been the work of a small minority, it has been made possible only through the en- thusiastic efforts of a large number of students of all classes and activities. If, in years to come, we who are now students of Lawrence High School can look at this yearbook and live again some of our school days, the 1939 Lawrencian will have achieved its goal. 4 , f Z 1' ff' , 5 fit' C' 'I'E'lj ll lifMl,l'l,llll I lx Z , f li , ,,.
