It is too often the case that in a preparatory school the debating society holds a secondary place. The regular routine of lessons, the idea that a required amount of facts must be learned and remembered, have a tendency to make societies of less consequence from the teachers point of view. In Friends School, however, this is far from being the case. The society not merely has the support of the faculty as a whole, but it has the aid and assistance of each individual teacher. Yet the suc- cess of such an organization must depend upon the members them- selves. The School furnishes the opportunities, but every member must improve them. Aided by the hearty concurrence of the School, encouraged by the success of the past, may the present society and its successors put forth more strenuous efforts, may there even be more time and attention set aside for this most necessary factor of a finished education. And as the fabled Phoenix arose from the ashes of its predecessor, so let each real animate succeeding Phoenix rise from the ashes of its predecessor, ever the same society, yet greater.
