rs. The Mirror 1930 To Our Passengers ELLOIV students, as you glance at the title, To Our Passeng- ers, you will undoubtedly say, I am not a passenger. In 1'eality you are not, but on your trip through this volume imagine yourself as o11e. Each one is a passenger on the ship, UM. H. S. You are too weak to sail through Life 's storms, and must remain in the har- bor. Each day you are lured out farther and farther from the harbor, and finally the day arrives when you leave the harbor and sail upon the sea of Life. You are then your own admiral, the old has been left behind. Those rear-admirals have completed their task and turn to new passengers. The day arrives when you, an admiral, drift into the ship 's cabin. Your glance is attracted to the book shelves where a fascinating volume stares you in the face. There you see in gold letters, upon a fancy green cover, the following title, The Navigation Aid of 1930? The account contains the best efforts of the l11ldSl1lpIl1611 of 1930. Perhaps you are a. member of t.he crew to whom the volume was dedicated. If you were, your appreeiations were extended to Rear-admiral Ferguson, the faculty sponsor, a11d to Admiral Brown, Superintendent of Schools, who have certainly done their best in guiding the midshipmen, The Mirror Staff, in their work. -The Editor 1 Cooperation E I N the common run of school activities, in the humdium ey ents of scholastic life, there lie opportunities for every student not only to secure an education, the prime factor in his presence at edu- cational institutions, but also to help equalize the spirit of the school in which he studies. In school life there are many activities, much toil, and a great deal of difficulty that is avoided quite easily if a person wishes to avoid it. By a constant habit of backsliding and an avoidance of details that are necessary to the effective running of any organization, he can smooth his ow11 path, but at the same time disrupt schedules and overburden others with his own unperformed duties. Owing to this fact more than to any other, most school activities are conducted with a great deal of needless friction. There should be no necessity for the constant repetitions of entreaties and for the continu- ous prodding of malcontents, who choose to destroy the spirit of school organizations and to limit the extent of benehts from such organiza- tions. In life, the most obvious Way is always the easiest, but we should remember at the same time that the most obvious is not always the most logical. Beyond a doubt the conception of organization is efficiency and cooperation, but cooperation can not be obtained Without the Will of Page Twenty-six
