4 M. F. H. S. PILOT interest in the affairs of the school, either work or play, possess school spirit? Certainly not. Then how can we distinguish the true school spirit? If we pay particular attention to some individual for a time, we are sure to note whether, or not he possesses school spirit. He who goes about his work with a will, performing each duty heartily, he who is ready and willing to help a classmate when help is neededg he who seeks only the good in another's efforts and achievements, he who can be depended upon to do right even though persons of authority be absent, he who takes an interest in his fellow classmen and his school as a wholeg he who attains his rank hon- estly and by faithful applicationg he who booms his school and does his part in keeping up its standardsg he who is loyal, above all to his teachers and respects their wishes, and regards their laws as not merely something to compel him to act contrary to his wishes but as helpful guidesg he who is thoughtful, kind, helpful, obedient, prompt to act, honest and loyal, has the true school spirit and should be an example to each and every pupil. Grace Burns, '32 TO THE COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT We, of the Pilot Board, wish to ex- tend our sincere appreciation to the Commercial Department which has helped so much to make the paper possible. Without this department there could be no Pilot, for it is the Commercial students who type all the articles before they go to the printer. Although this typing requires great amount of time and work, these stu- dents have gladly done their best to help make a paper that represents our school, one that tells in detail each activity of the student body. VVe think that this is one of the fm- est things a department or an individ- ual can do. What is it that makes a school successful and one to be proud of? The co-operation to do their best an outstanding what the Com- to make their school one. This is exactly mercial students have done and we hope that they will accept our thanks for doing a great part of the work in representing our school. Iola Chase, 733

M. F. II. S. PILOT ' PILOT BOARD OUR TRIBUTE TO ROCKNE On a certain verdant campus Out beyond our earthly strife, Perhaps today there is a contest And a battle for the life. In this struggle of imagination Where the dear departed flight, We have certain strong suspicions That there's Knute with all his might. We can see him, eyes a-shining, In his sweater, sort o' gray, Watching fixedly the battle Concentrating on the play. And perhaps upon the bleachers, There are saints a-lookin' on, And applauding and a-clapping For Rocks ' team to he the one. But here on planes terrestrial VVe shall have to miss the game That those beings so celestial Are giving tribute to, with fame. And let us say in consolation, To future squads of Notre Dame, That old Rockne's always 1C1ghtin', When they're fightin', for the game. Agnes I. Hueston, '31 SCHOOL SPIRIT What is school spirit? Has he who sits back and lets George do it , as the saying goes, school spirit? No. Does he who makes fun of the efforts and achievement of others, in which he takes no part, possess school spirit? No again. Does he who takes no
