EDITORIALS At last we have produced our Annual. It may not be all we had wished, but it is the best that time, opportunity and ability have allowed us to put out. Since we are laboring under the burden of its being the 13th Annual, compiled by a staff of 13 mem- bers, beside the increased cost of production, the high cost of living, etc., it has been some proposition, but we have come thru almost alive. If there is anything which you do not like, don ' t tell us about it, but try to think up a better way of doing it and then give next year ' s staff the benefit of your research. Hoping that these faults will be few and far between, we respectfully submit this volume for your approval. This year each of the classes is entirely organized and under these organization the class functions have been better and more numerous than ever. This, combined with the well organized committees of the faculty, has helped to make the student activities of this year something to be remembered after leaving school. The General Committee, composed of the heads of all classes, committees, boards and organizations, planned each week the program for the next and there was little confliction of meetings. This idea, if continued, will help to make our school notable for the system and ease with which any functions may be carried out, and will help to keep up the motto of the school, that Mansfield High always succeeds in anything it undertakes. The Staff wishes to thank all those who have helped to decide the destiny of this book. To the Faculty Committee, composed of Mr. Schneck, Mr. Rinehart, Miss McClure and Miss Patterson, we are greatly indebted for the assistance and suggestions given us in our work. Also we would like to thank those whose contributions make up a part of this book; may you not be ashamed of the surroundings of your efforts, but proudly show it as the best part of one of the best Annuals published. The name of this book this year remains as of old, The Annual. Altho a contest was announced for the purpose of selecting a new name, only one suggestion was handed in. Since this was announced only once, it was probably our fault that no more active results were reached, but at least the idea of a permanent name has been started and it is to be hoped that next year ' s staff, if they deign to accept our suggestion, will arrive at a more satisfactory conclusion and a name will be found which can be retained for all future Annuals. Altho the conditions are such that the Board of Education can do nothi ng definite concerning the new high school, many plans and ideas have been framed for the ar- rangement of the building. It is expected to be one of the most complete high schools in the state and will easily accommodate one thousand pupils. Plans are being made for a music course comprising vocal, piano, instrumental and possibly organ training, in which the school will furnish the instruments and teachers. The chemistry and physics departments will contain lecture rooms seating about fifty people and labora- tories with room and equipment for the same number. The industrial department, a small part of which has been started already, will be complete with mechanical drawing, forge, machine shop and all other necessary departments. For the convenience of the pupils and teachers there will be rest rooms, reading rooms and a library. Besides all this there will be the long sought gymnasium with locker rooms, showers, and pool for the use of all students. In connection with the school will be the athletic field contain- ing the football field, baseball diamond and running tracks, with appropriate stands and bleachers for each. From all this one can see that there will be few things lacking and we all hope that the new Mansfield High School will be everything that a city this size should have for the education of the people who will soon direct its affairs.
