North Hioh School Foreword To all Seniors: Hail and farewell! This year you close I lie doors of North High School behind you; not with a slant, but gently and with regret. Some of you will open the doors of yet higher institutions; others will find their places in the jostling world of industry. Yet wherever you go, you will find that it was during these years that a deep imprint was set upon your lives. Here the windows were opened, and the bright light of truth streamed into your souls. Some of you, probably not all, have learned that houses and lands, mortgages and bonds are not the dearest possessions of life; that just to knoiv things is a constant joy. To understand radio-activity, to conceive the depth of space, to know how the little violet grows, to measure the centuries of man’s slmv struggle from the wild desert to the humanized city, to read through the glass of literature the tortuous story of man’s hates and loves —these are a greater happiness. Still to think high thoughts, to do justice, to speak truth; to help and not to hinder, to sing and not to sorrow, to give and not to covet—these bring supreme happiness, and these your alma mater has taught you. Live worthy the name by which you are called—graduates of North High School. 5
