NT RELAT IONSHIPS OUR LEADER SPEAKS N the dedications of Empehi yearbooks, generous recognition has been given in the past to principals and to members of the faculty. lt is only fair that occasionally a number should be dedicated to the students themselves. We older members of the school community need to remember that high schools are maintained solely for the purpose of educating young people for the duties of good citizenship. The student should be the focal element in all school activities and planning and since nearly all the material and work going into the annual is done by stu- clents, they are fully entitled to special consideration for carry- ing through this project of their own planning. The members of the faculty of the Morgan Park High School wish you the greatest possible measure of success in everything you under- take. And in the words of Sir Walter Raleigh we would saye- Bestow thy youth so that thou mayest have comfort to remember it when it hath forsaken thee, and not sigh and grieve at the account thereof. While thou art young thou wilt think it will never have an end: but the longest day hath its evening, and thou shalt enjoy it but once: it never turns again: use it therefore as the spring-time, which soon departeth, and wherein thou oughtest to plant and sow all provisions for a long and happy life. Hail and farewell to the class of l94O. Page ll
