The number of Seniors is noteworthy, but from the ability that members of the class who are not on this list have, it should be much larger. There were a great many more Seniors who, up to their Junior year had all their grades above 90, but unfortunately they permitted their work to drop far below the standard necessary for a place on this list. The Junior Class can not have as good a record as the present Senior Class, as it has only eight members who are eligible for this list, while the Senior Class has twelve. With two additional members having twenty or more grades above 90, but having one 70. The Sophomore Class has a chance at making just as good a record as the Seniors as they have thirteen persons on their list. The Freshman Class has a remarkable number of pupils eligible for the list. There are nineteen names on their list. This gives them a chance to make a better record than any of the upper classes. While the girls are in the majority in these lists, the boys are fairly well repre- sented. The boys who are on it, especially in the upper classes, are all-round boys. It will be well for the'low'er classmen to observe this and not to get the idea that a boy who gets good grades is a sissy or a book worm because an all-round boy must be a good student as well as a good fellow. It is to be hoped that every pupil in Newark High School will closely observe the Newark High School seal, and constantly bear in mind the quotation, Tibi Seris, Tibi Metis. Also remember, good grades are not reaped from sowing wild oats, but from conscientious effort. PAGE 19

Tibi Seris, Tibi Metis In the Reveille Annual for 1922, an article was written about the Cum Laude Society. It metnioned the names of all students in the four classes, who, on account of their scholastic Work, would be eligible for this organization. In this issue of the Annual, it was decided to entitle the article Tibi Seris, Tibi Metis, because of its special significance to scholastic standing. .YX GIY . ff ' hafta s I .O W The quotaton Tibi Seris, Tibi Metis is taken from the Latin and means, You sow for yourself, you reap for yourself. It appears on the Newark High School seal, a cut of which is here printed. This quotation is well illustrated by the following list of names: Total Number 90 or First Class-QAll in 905 of Grades Above 85-89 80-84 James Settles ............ ..... 2 8 28 0 0 Elizabeth Scott ,....... .......... . . 28 28 0 0 Inez Hooper .......,,...................... 28 28 0 0 Second Class-fNone below 855 Dorothy Davis ......,.,........,......... .. 30 29 1 0 Marian Spencer ..... 28 27 1 0 Grace Martin ...... 28 25 3 0 Harold Hughes .,..,.......,,,... .. 28 A 24 4 0 Catherine Browne ,........ ,.i. .. 29 23 6 0 Third Class-fN0ne below 801 Carol Amos ...........,,..,.,..........,...........,,,,.i,... .... 2 8 23 4 1 Roy Hohl, Macille Miller, Bernice Noise, just fail to make this list as they have eighteen grades above 90. David Helm, had he attended Newark High School all four years would doubtless be on this list, as he had twenty-four grades in 90, three grades from 85 to 89 out of twenty-seven grades, but he came from North High School, Columbus, and this list is made up from those pupils who have done all their work here. The following people have an average of 90 or above for the four years in High School: James Settles, Elizabeth Scott, Inez Hooper, Marian Spencer, Catherine Browne, Dorothy Davis, Grace Martin, Harold Hughes, Carol Amos, Alton Schmutzler, Louise Ralston, Donald Imhoff, Esther Rogers and Macille Miller. Without doubt, Bernice Noise will have an average above 90 by the end of the last semester, because her average at present is 89.9. PAGE 18

Looking Backwards To those members of the Senior Class who look back over the last four years comes the appreciation of their real significance. Four years ago there entered this school a great number of Freshmen. Here they began the second lap of their education. For four years they have held to it and are now practically through, On entering High School, they did not fully realize what education meant, or how broad a subject it was. The four years in High School were devoted to learning what education is. The students received a little of one subject and a little of another. It is in this way that they have been enabled to see the great field of education. One of the greatest lessons learned in High School is to look at a thing in a fair, broad-minded way. Although lessons have been lang and hard, they have been well worth the trouble because of the social activities which necessarily accompany them. Where, in the present Senior Calss, is there one student who does not look upon his graduation with some measure of regret because of separation from his friends? There are very few, if any, and as time goes on one will look back upon his High School life as the best period of his life. XUGH ff '5 in Looking Forward Had there been a Reveille thirLy years ago, and had some member of its staff been assigned the task of writing of the High School of the future, he would not, per- haps, have picturcd it in as favorable condition as its exists tcday. So any prediciton made now may seem fanciful to us, and yet not portray crnditions as advanced as they will in reality be. - If Newark continues to grow as it has grown in the past fifteen years, the time is not far distant when .there will be an East High School, a West High School, a Central High, and several Junior High Schocls. The High School of the future will be patterned after the college cf today. The honor system will prevail, and term exam- inations and tests will be abolished. The school will be divided into departments, at the head of which will be one or more college trained men cr women. Each department will be complete in itself, hav- ing a radio, by means of which instantaneous connection may be made with the lead- ing scientific and literary centers of the day, and a screen, on which are portrayed the most recent wonders and interests of the world. The physical, geological, chemical and botanical facilities will be greatly elabor- ated, and more attention will be given to vocational work. There will be more time spent in the laboratories, where students will be encouraged to do individual work. There will also be many changes in the future High School building. The heat- ing, ventilation and lighting will be supplied from a central location so that smoke in the school will be avoided. ' There will be rest rooms which offer hospital service, and trained nurses in charge of themg so it will no longer be necessary for a ,teacher to leave her classes to attend to the rest rooms.
