itoriali FORWARD, EVER; BACKWARD, NEVER! Our four high school years are now over, and ahead of us lies a new road — one on which we have never before travelled. Along with this road comes a sense of independence — a sort of Well, we ' re on our own from now on. There will be nobody around telling us what to do and how to do it. That becomes our responsibility. However, if we keep in mind the motto which the Class of 1952 has chosen, we should have little trouble in remembering that we have a new goal to acquire — one which requires a lot of patience and hard work, and one which cannot be gained over night. So, as each one of us starts out on his own always remember to keep going ahead, and to never slide back. BURRIS EDWARDS Associate Editor ATTAINING SUCCESS When a ship starts out on a journey, its captain always has a definite idea as to its destination, otherwise, the ship would wander about aimlessly and finally be broken up on the rocks of some unknown shores. If we seniors do not begin now to plan our future, we will later find that all our efforts have been in vain and that we have been tossed upon the rocks of life — unprepared. It has been said that, Success is sure to crown the life of any person who possess es an average intellect, a high ideal, a disposition to work, who is ready to sacrifice if necessary and endure without flnching, and is willing to bear needful trials. To succeed then, the first thing we must do is to plan out the road ahead of us. This means to decide now what we are best fitted to do, not specially what we desire to do, but for what we have an aptitude. When we have decided what we are best suited to do, then set a goal and strive to attain that goal. Each of us has our own special place in the world. It is our obligation to find it and follow it through with the best of our ability. Success has been defined as the essence of things hoped for — the result of things attained. Let us all plan our road to the future now, so that we will not find our- selves upon the rocks later. CHARLES SOULE Editor-in-Chief
