Generate Better Education ln Monessen Institutions grow slowly like the oak tree. Surface growth is determined not only by soil and moisture but also by the root system which holds it securely anchored against the storms which sweep the landscape. Not only do the roots hold it, they support it-even the infinitesimal root hairs are the active agents which take from the soil the food and mois- ture needed to maintain growth, health, and beauty of foliage. So it is with Monessen High School. The school must be anchored deep in public esteem and confidence, its roots must go deep into the scil cf public service. lts trustees, faculty, students, and alumni must all contribute to the life, growth, beauty, and service of the high school must be anchored deep in public esteem of the work, the love, the thought which enter into or center about the school-not during one year cr six years, but during its life time.

No actor service is without its effect, for every constructive act adds to the ring of growth and beauty, each incompetence-each failure to measure up to the stature of manhood or womanhood on the part of the student, faculty member, or alumnus-leaves its mark, its worm hole. But who can keep this growing tree, this high school, healthy and robust? Only re- sponsible, competent men-men like those pictured on this page. Who are these men? Well, they are our community sculptors, chosen by us to skillfully mold crude materials into finished products. In short, they are the Monessen School Board. Throughout the school year these men examine and discuss contemporary problems concerning education. Guided by wisdom and experience, they solve these problems tact- fully and efficiently. Perpetually do they strive to uphold and strengthen, extend and broaden our educational standards, taking progressive strides toward better schools for Monessen. Not content to sit behind wooden desks and mete out school legislation, each of these men have visited our classrooms and observed American democracy in action. These, then, are our benevolent, public- spirited citizens who sacrifice their time, tal- ents, and toils for that ultimate good- education. Joseph J.
