10 T H E A R T I S A N S ' 41 THE PRINCIPALS MESSAGE To the Olympians— Three ears ago this coming Septemher vou and I were thrown together as new- comers in the life of Manual Arts High Scliool. We ]ia ' e had an experience together which it will not be m lot to have again witii anv entering class at Manual. These tlirec cars iiave been a period of growth for me. Thev have brought with them the conflicting elements that are always a part of growth; the pain and distress of new experiences; the thrill of newly acquired perspective and powers; the unfamiliaritv of new surroundings and the deep-seated satisfaction that comes v ' ith acliievemcnt and mastery. These same experiences have been yours during these three ■ears. I ha c watched your development with interest and svmpathv and I have often found encouragement to pla - my part in this tremendous organization from the courage and ability which you ha e shown in making adjustments and meeting your prob- lems. With the coming of graduation there comes that ine itable parting wliicli is essential to the continuation of gro th and development. As graduates ou will leave your Alma Mater to find our place in the great American scene. You will find yourscK ' CS forced to make new adjustments and to meet new problems. It has been our purpose during the three years )0u have been at Manual to give vou experiences as much like those which you are about to face as it was possible for us to arrange. It is m ' sincere hope and the sincere hope of all of our teachers that ou will find these experiences meaningful to you and that you may build safely and successfuUv upon the foundation which has been laid here. Secretly I must confess a hope that you. as the members of the graduating class which came new to Manual Arts High School with me, may find it in your hearts in the future to want a little closer relationship with me than is the experience of the average alumnus. Floyd R. Honn, Principal.
