DEDICATION We, the class of 1954. hereby dedicate our annual year- book to the many business men of District 201. who year after year help us to publish our Sphinx .

FOREWO .u 1 '1 It is the earnest desire of the editors of this book to make apparent the co- herence of Petersburg Harris High School to the unit district in which it is found. Through the use of the dedication and division pages we have attempted to show how students are prepared in school to assume the responsibilities ot adult citizens. First of all, by executing the duties of conscientious students in the class- room, the Student Council, and the. various student organizations, we endeav- or to prepare ourselves to fulfill the obligations of a useful citizenship. Secondly, in school we learn the importance of a moral and religious life: and that true citizenship cannot be built save on a foundation of Christian principles. Thirdly, by sharing in school our joys and our sorrows, our work and our play, we learn the great importance of co-operation, because it is only by working together that community life is built and maintained. Thus we see that through the efforts of this unit high school and others like it, students are prepared to further the standards of our democratic society. tv-X, f--NX, 1- my X , gk-, g .A 1 'fsf--im JYK, J-413 s t ft f -.! it X fi 4 l I 1 1
