M i l t o n Swenson WHAT A HIGH SCHOOL MEANS T0 A COMMUNITY. A toWn's ability to do is determined by the standard of education held by its inhabitants. One might ask, What is education, or What is meant by an educated man? Education is the ability to do and act at the right time in the right place. An educated man is one who is always on the job, if I may be permitted to use that term. Book learning amounts to practically nothing if one cannot apply it to his everyday life and make it of some use to both himself and the community in which he lives. The extent of one's education might be determined by the amount of service it affords him. After all, life is service, and one hasn't reached the highest stage of development until he learns that he lives best when he lives least for himself and most for others. The high schools today are endeavoring to give practical subjects that will enable its students to be useful and serviceable. They teach principles of civil government, preparing the way for better citizenship. They conduct classes in current events, which enable all to become fa- miliar vvith everyday happenings, and what is more beneficial today than a knowledge of the present war? Above all, they give Vocational Education, the most valuable of all subjects. It aids students in determining their vocation for life in such a way that in a few years misfits will be unheard of.

THE CREST 21 have found the work suited to him, and the town will be working in harmony for the advancement of its welfare. Athletics tend to build up a healthier race of men and women. It enables them to develop physically and they are better fit to take up their work in life. Domestic science is beneficial in that it takes up food dieta- ries. It affords the girls an opportunity to study the kinds of food nec- essary to make up a proper diet. It also teaches them to be economical, in that it emphasizes the fact that expensive foods are not always the most nutritious. Domestic art and manual training are uplifting and educational studies as well. They teach the boys and girls to be useful about the home. . A high school is also advantageous to a community in that it is a social center. It affords good clean amusement for the citizens and it tends to bring them closer together. It is a bond of union between the different sections of a town and its doors are always open to all. Every town is judged by its educational system, and a town without a high school is considered as behind the times. The educational system is the framework of a town, while all other secondary' institutions look towards it as a beacon light. Education is the basis of all civilization. A high school contains the high ideals and ambitions of a town. It is ever striving to make the world a better place to live in and is a symbol of service. It stands ever for the highest ideals of man and is ever beckoning students to enter its majestic halls to drink from its fountain of knowledge. OUR PEERLESS CLASS. The Seniors excel in ideas that are large, These they will give without any charge. But our peerless bunch just can't be beat, Our spirit and zeal are surely 'a treat. The Juniors do a curious dance, Of which they love to talkg They haven't seen that classy prance, Namely, the Freshie Walk. The Sophomores brag at what they have done By yelling at basketball games that were won, In spirit and loyalty we've beat them I'm sure, And by putting three stars on the team we did more. On the Freshies the teachers rely, Of that there is no question whyg Our intelligence elsewhere can't be found, Some day the world we'll surely astound. We're such a modest class, you understand, That all our virtues you'll surely not demand, But I'l1 say we've never met defeat, For the Freshies 'simply can't be beat.
