Co-operation HAT is co-operation? XiVebster tells us it is the art of working jointly together or concurrently. Another great man has told us it is to so conduct ourselves that others can work with us. These men are both right but their delinitions are both incomplete, They have disregarded the fact that to co-operate, everybody must work on the same plan, at the same time, toward the same end. Cf course this is with the understanding that everybody is willing to co- operate. At times, there is a disagreement as to how the plan must be worked, and even what the result should be. This difference of opinion requires a com- promise from both sides, and the upholding of the compromise by all parties. Had the colonies not co-operated between 1775 and 1780, we might yet be English subjects or a unit of the British Empire. But, as Benjamin Franklin said, ln union there is strength. There were many differences to adjust, many conflicting interests to overlook and convert, and many ideals to be realized and established. The present government of the United States stands as a monument to that spirit of co-operation and compromise that inspired our Fathers of the Revolution to work for our freedom. The success of every institution depends upon the common interest. It means laying aside personal consideration in many cases. Our schools are one place where working for self means working for common good and achievement. The reputation of the school is established on the accomplishment of all the students. The most outstanding achievement of our school year, due to co-operation, is our great stride forward in the development of the Greciz and Gold. NYe may be prouder of this annual than of any other, excepting possibly the first. This year, the fifth of its existence, marks the hrst printed edition of our year book. Every contribution has been given freely and voluntarily by students who possess real school spirit of the kind that will not allow our school record to be inferior. The student body and the staff have co-operated in giving their best to the edition of a record on which we may look with pride, saying, This is our annual, the result of our labors. Looking ahead five years, we see another annual, not unlike the one of today, but yet more like an older brother. It is a book of a hundred to a hundred twenty-five pages, illustrated by well-chosen cuts, set off by novel designs, but still the result of true co-operation. In the same way, we see ahead a great, modern, beautiful, roomy school plant. NVe see it large enough to accommodate many. many students with all the modern equipment and fixtures. These are the tangible things. Behind these we feel, rather than see, the co-operation between students and the citizens of the com- munity that has made this monument possiblesthe result of the energy of a great many people, working on the same plan, at the same time, toward the same end. ,THE Enrroic.
