--Jl1HliE,.lLlll1LlE3Q,-,llslllelltl The Prineipalls Message I-us review of Lincoln High School life for the year 1930-31 will perpetuate memoriesg and if this page brings to mind clearly the very favored condition in which high school students live and grow, it may add something to the picture presented. The opportunity to give a last bit of counsel is irresistible. High school students would do well to list the many factors that determine the excellence of a modern high school. It is a fact that each student at Lincoln participates daily in the use of grounds, buildings, and equipment necessi- tating an outlay of half a million dollars. For each student each year there has been expended for teaching, books, heating, and other necessi- ties over one hundred dollars. To these material provisions add the opportunity afforded to , grow in physical and mental power and social l understanding during three years that nature designs should be years of growth. Another condition is the purposeful atmosphere that prevails. Grounds, buildings, equipment, curriculum, teachers, a set of regulations, and a student body do not make a school. There must be more, a certain understanding of the significance of it all. The state of mind of a vigorously active student body, alert to opportunities, and cooperating in a spirit of loyalty, complements the physical equip- ment and makes a real school. Such is Lincoln, and well may the graduates and stud- ents be proud of the fact. The second thought is embodied in the word Excellence When school days are past and the values derived from school training are being realized, something, not of fact learned, but of principle of action acquired, should be projected into every under- taking. The word Excellence challenges to action. Fortunate is the one who sees the opportunity to excel in every endeavor, not merely to excel over others engaged in like tasks, but to excel over one's own previous achievement. Excellence is the key to leadership, and leadership constantly challenges to attain to greater excellence. To be satisfied in doing well is not enough. The good is often the enemy of the best. Satis- faction in moderately good attainment often defeats what might otherwise be splendid achievement. With Excellence as a watchword and all powers bent to the task, the seemingly impossible may be accomplished. As this year closes and this, the largest graduating class, leaves Lincoln, may each member take with him a feeling of gratitude to the City of Tacoma and the State of Washington for the educational opportunities offered, and may every one have no less a standard than Excellence in every undertaking.
