PARIS HIGH SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 3 1 X essage from the Baath nf Cllfhunatiun T'he initiative and enterprise which makes possible the publication of the Year Book are the best possible indication that the pupils of the High School are receiving a good foundation on which to build a broad and useful life. To think clearly and then translate these thoughts into action is the need of the present day. That the pupils are receiving this foundation is clearly indicated by the manner in which the yearly school publication is handled. The Board of Education congratulates the publishing committee in this splendid effort. To those who have finished their formal education and who are now about to enter into a larger phase of life, to those planning further adventures in education we express the hope that the foundation built during your years in the Paris schools will lead to useful and successful lives.
