THE LEGEND THEYIVE BUILDED WELL By HELEN MEIER As scholastic and activities leaders were forty- two seniors and juniors who were elected to mem- bership in the National Honor Society. Sixteen members of the 1936 graduating class had been elected as juniors in 1935. The National Honor Society was founded in 1921 under the name of the American Torch So- ciety to promote an interest in the four cardinal principles of character, scholarship, leadership. and service. Members are chosen by a committee of five faculty members following recommendations by the entire teaching stag. Twenty-three of the members announced at an assembly May 7 were grad- uating seniors, and nineteen were from the 11A and 12B classes. During the assembly Ralph Hengstler, president of the chapter, told the his- tory of the society and ex- plained the meaning of the National H o n o r Society symbol. Talks on the four points on which membership in the society is based were made by Margaret John- ston, characterg Charles Barnett, leadership, Betty Barth, scholarship, and Wil- liam Benninghoff, service. Speeches were also given by David Heaton, a young Fort Wayne lawyer who is a member of Phi Beta Kappa, national college scholastic fraternity, and Mr. Merle J. Abbett, city school super- intendent. On Tuesday, May 19, the H o n o r Society members were feted at a banquet giv- en by the faculty at Ply- m o u t h Congregational Church.

The advisers, selected by the class oH'icers, oversee the class activities-such as the Commencement Dance, Junior Prom, Fresh- man Party, and other purely class functions. Meet- ings of the class oihcers and class advisers decide the course the class shall follow, and an energetic class adviser can make the success of a class. These club activities are not the only kind of work for playj indulged in at North Side. Whether it seems that way or not. students do attend class for seven periods a day for approxi- mately nine months. The curriculum is divided into three general courses, college preparatory for those who intend to enter a college or university at the end of their high school days, commercial for those who plan to enter the business world following graduation, and the general course for those whose plans for their future life are in- definite. Those courses are designed to benefit the in- 14 dividual student and are Hexible enough to suit each one's needs. Those who wish can combine courses. College prep pupils can do so by taking shorthand and typing as elective subjects during their last two years. Commercial students can achieve the same results by taking a language during their first two years and algebra and geom- etry during junior and senior years. During their final two years many of the commercial students take shorthand and typewriting. With the aid of these varied subjects, all North Side students are enabled to leave prepared for a well-balanced life. All this, extra-curricular activities in every line, methods for building the physical welfare of the students, instruction in every line of work, practice in social contacts, tend to give all North Side grad- uates well-rounded abilities in everything and to build good strong character and good strong bodies.
