Our chorus of nearly one-hundred-fifty voices receives training that makes for better music in our churches and com- munity. Formerly the H. S. teaching force in Nlishawaka consisted of a principal and one assistant. Today we have a specialist in each subject. As a result in literature, science, history, mathematics and the languages -the fundamentals of every liberal educationr the results secured are much more satisfactory. Whom shall we thank for these advances? We naturally think first of our superintendent, who has quietly, ably and industriously guided the energies and resources of our school system. We turn to the members of our Board of Education. Mishawaka has been fortunate in having upon its school-board its most representative citizens, men who have always been guided by one consideration only-the betterment of the school system under their charge. These men should through life revert with pride to their unselfish efforts in behalf of the youth of Mishawaka. Finally, in considering the factors which have contributed to our magnificent growth in Educational lines, let us not forget the people of Mishawaka. It would be very easy for any community favored with rapid industrial and economic prosperity, such as Mishawaka has known, to neglect its schools. Material prosperity often means neglect of the higher things. ln the midst of worldly prosperity, our people have not forgotten their spiritual and intellectual requirements. A finely-equipped Hospital, a beautiful Orphans' Home, magnificent church structures and an unsur- passed physical equipment for its schools prove the temperament of our people. This community believes in its public schools and cooperates thoroughly with its teachers in their daily work. How fine it is for a teacher to feel behind him the sympathy and encouragement of parents and patrons. No community in America stands back of its teachers more loyally than does Mishawaka. Our city's slogan, All fOr MiSh0u'0k0, is well illustrated by the relation of parent, pupil and teacher. We have discussed the past and present of Mishawaka public schools. What of the future? First of all, we want every boy and girl of school age in our city to realize the wealth of opportunities here in our city schools. There are hundreds of small colleges in America that cannot offer the student the advantages of botanical. chemical and physical labor- atories such as our new High School building contains. The large universities of scarcely a generation back did not have the equal of our auditorium, offices, gymnasium and domestic science kitchens. Let us hope that the boy and girl who have at their very door such rich con- veniences may not neglect them. Secondly, we want the interest of our parents thoroughly sustained in our pupils. lf the boy is not progressing as weil as he should in school, we want the father and mother to visit the recitation room. If the teacher, the father, the mother and the pupil can all fully understand each other. success will inevitably crown our mutual efforts. ln conclusion, we feel Mishawaka should count among its richest assets, its modern educational system. Side by side with our prosperous factories, beautiful churches and wholesome homes should stand our free public school.
