M . ,. . , ,, ,WI , ,x ln choosing a theme for this an- nual, no subject could be found that was more apropos than the future. Although we are living in a scientific world, a more highly developed one is seen for the future years. A strik- ing example of this scientific devel- opment may be found in the World Fair which is being held in Chicago in this year of 1933. The purpose of a high school is to prepare the younger generation for future life as a citizen of the United States, With a foundation of solid concrete education, a lasting frame- work is sure to be erected by deter- mination. As high school students. shouldn't we be interested in the fu- ture and what it will bring to us? No doubt there will be many who will be just a shack in the suburbs of achieve- ment while a few will be tall, erect skyscrapers on the street of success. In this twelfth edition of the Pilot Wheel we have endeavored to pre- sent the spirit of the future, hoping that in some way it might inspire you Build a strona foundation, and your success is assured. To the future! What will it bring? Lucretia Carter. PAGE FOUR Progress is essential to a nation even if that nation is seemingly at its highest peak. When we fail to forge ahead, we invariably fall by the way- side. So it has been with many great nations. That is why men and women are needed in this world who will look ahead to the future. One asks: What are the qualities necessary for progress? The answer: Ambition and the courage to look ahead. The late Thomas Alva Edison must have had all of these qualities or he would never have accomplished the stupendous tasks he set himself to do. Henry Ford, the indus- trialist, is only one of many who has established progressive institutions. Scientists such as Robert Millikan are responsible for many scientific discoveries that may change our liv- ing conditions to a certain extent. Our annual staff this year has, I feel, all of these characteristics. They have ambition and courage or they could never have accomplished the task they set themselves to, namely, the 1933 annual, They have worked under many handicaps and have suc- ceeded in producing a book worthy of their effort. lack C.
