Miss Wolverton s Message December 11, 1925. To the Girls and Boys of Winter Twenty-Six: On Chaldean plains the wise men trod a world o ' er-swept with starry constella- tions, charting the sky, foretelling the planet ' s path, warning a fear-bowed people of the dark of a dread eclipse. Great Socrates paced the sunlit streets of Athens probing for truTli within the minds and hearts of his young comrade followers. On a poppy- crimsoned chalk-cliff of the Loire. Saint Martin drew to himself the eager students of the Middle Ages, to pore upon great volumes of magic manuscripts, heavy with the liv- ing thoughts of Greeks and Romans whose brains had long ago been a drift of for- gotten dust. Great Doctor Millikin, in the confused uncertain years of this Twentieth Century, follows the secret of a ray of light almost beyond the path of though, and newly reads the laws by which our sun and all the stars must turn. Since Time was hid so far in misty distance as to seem Eternity, man was held, imbedded deep as the instinct of worship, nay, one with worship, the urge for the search for truth, the instinct of the student. May we all keep alive this divine flame, knowing that science consists in thinking God ' s thoughts after him. that only in the knowledge of the truth can man be free. In sincerity, your friend. SARAH FOSS WOLVERTON. Mr. Noble ' s Message To the Class of Winter Twenty-Six: Almost every day we are reminded by visitors and others, whose business hap- pens to bring them to this building, of the wonderful advantages the present day ' ligh schoolschool students have over their predecessors. Not only is this true in regard to our physical equipment, such as buildings. laboratories, gymnasiums, etc.. but also in the many different courses offered, so that students are equipped with all the facts necessary to go on to college or to take their places in the business world. As far as we are concerned the Progress of Student Life at L. A. is at its zenith. However, we all realize that knowledge of facts does not make a successful man. There is something else needed to complete his equipment. His diploma from high school should be a guarantee of morality and good citizenship, as well as a good record of achievement in History. English, and Mathematics. A prominent college authority says that Practically every failure in college freshman classes can be traced to some weakness in character, not to the lack of know- ledge on the part of the freshman. Our high schools, then, must strive to make our recommedations — recommendations in something more than ability to get A ' s and B ' s in a subject. We must devise some measure of character and ideals, so that we can confidently send our students to meet the many problems of the college or business world. We think we have made a start along this line in our Merit System, and our grades in Citizenship. We ask the help of our students and graduates to per- fect and improve our tools of measurement. Only in this way can we be sure that our product is equipped to make the vital decisions that are bound to present themselves. Sincerely, your friend, Ralph C. Noble.
