ln lhese lrying days we lind ourselves drawn lo a new and increasing ap- precialion ol lhe priceless herilage lhal has come down lo us as cilizens ol America. Expressive ol lhis leeling are lhe beaulilul illuslralions in Caerulea depicling Shrines ol Democracy . Our hearls are slirred as we review lhe evenls ol lhe pasl which galher 'round lhese greal monumenls lo lreedom and lhe American way ol lile. We in lhe schools will nol overlook lhe lacl lhal lhe American public school holds a place in our nalional lile which gives il high rank among lhe shrines ol democracy. From lhe days ol lhe Li++le Red School l-louse down lo lhe presenl lime il has been dedicaled lo lhe imporlanl lask ol lraining a loyal and inlelligenl cilizenry, wilhoul which democracy cannol long survive. David Burcham Tribules lo David Burcham l have had lhe opporlunily lo observe lvlr. Burcham's work and his inllu- ence lor a number ol years. Praclically all ol my experience in school work has been under his principalship. During lhe lirsl years as a leacher, when lhe number ol leachers and sludenls was comparalively small. and laler as an adminislralive assislanl l have enioyed lhe rare privilege ol close associalion wilh him. My lribule is, lirsl ol all, a personal expression ol sincere gralilude lor lhe conscious benelils ol lhal associalion. Mr. Burcham's leadership is lhe lype lhal makes you leel lhal you are working wilh him ralher lhan under him. The lerm cooperalive which he uses in speaking ol our lorm ol sludenl body governmenl applies equally lo principal-lacully relalionships. l-lis leadership inspires his associales lo lheir besl ellorls. They leel lhal lheir inilialive is nol curlailed bul real- ize lhal lhey have a leader lo whom lhey can appeal when advice is needed and imporlanl decisions are lo be made. Always alerl lo lhe new lrends in educalion, he recognized lhe good poinls ol lhe old, seeking lo merge lhe besl ol each and avoiding lhe exlremes. His educalional philosophy recognized lhe value ol school ex- periences in lhe broad sense. All worlh-while sludenl enlerprises are given his supporl and encouragemenl. Allhough in recenl years, il has nol been possible lor his sludenl con- lacls lo be on such a personal basis as in lhe earlier days ol his principal- ship, he relained his personal inleresl in each sludenl. As opporlunilies arise he is ready lo give personal consideralion lo lheir individual pro- ems. David Burcharn, we shall miss your sound iudgmenl in school councils, bul shall lreasure your conlinuing lriendship and lhe memory ol lhe years spenl under your leadership. Frank G. Reid Regislrar-Vice Principal Polylechnic l-ligh School
