I believe in the beautiful: in cleanliness: in well-kept dress and surroundings. I believe it my duty to help keep all property I use in good condition and in good order. I believe in the old saying, VVork while you work and play while you play. When it is time for play, I believe in laying aside all thought of work, and entering into the game joyously and wholeheartedly: striving to win, but always playing fair. I believe in initiative: in thinking and working for progress for others as well as myself. At the same time. I believe in respecting older and wiser people, and courteously considering their opinions and judgment. I believe in searching for the truth. I believe in law and order: obedience and respect for those in authority in the home, school, community, and nation, I believe in reverence for God and co-operation with my fellowtnen. sincerely and earnestly trying to do my part of world-betterment.

Q 'HoNoRABLE CITIZENS fp ' The Scholarship Society One of the goals that have been set before us by former pupils of McKinley for the purpose of encouraging us to improve ourselves and to reach our ideals, is the Scholarship Society. This was started in 1915. Mr. Cassell, Mr. Gaut, and Miss Pope helped to draw up the constitution and by-laws. VVhile the Scholarship Society has not really functioned as a society, awards are given for meeting various requirements. These awards are given at the close of each semester. Scholarship - Citizenship it T y A Scholarship-Citizenship pin is given each student receiving a grade of 1-E in all subjects, and a mark of 1 in all Citizenship qualities. During the last year so much emphasis has been placed on Citizenship that the Scholarship committee decided to give a separate pin for Citizenship. All students who receive a mark of 1 in all subjects, and an average of 1 in all Citizenship qualities receive a Citizenship-Scholarship pin. The Scholarship-Citizenship pin given to the B7, A7, and B8 is a silver pin, while the pin given to the AS, B9, and A9 is a gold one. Engraved on each pin is the grade of the student to whom it is awarded. The A9 pin is somewhat dis- tinguished from the rest by an added circle of purple enamel. A Scholarship fund has been provided, and a Scholarship committee, con- sisting of one teacher representative from each grade. Special cases are decided by this committee. Last semester three students received Scholarship-Citizenship pins, twenty-
