PORTLAND HIGH SCHOOL TOTEM FOREWGRD This, our school, stands as a living monument to those who have left its portals to enter upon the great business of life. Opportunities are freely offered here to every boy and girl in Portland to lay a solid foundation for his future success. Here, by conscientiously doing his lessons every day, the future citizen may train his mind to deal with the great problems of the world. Almost daily we hear of the gratifying success of some Port- land High School graduate. We have some well-known names in our list, notably Robert E. Peary and Cyrus H. K. Curtis. Here, too, our school offers every opportunity for the building of strong bodies as well as alert minds. Our wellaequipped gymnasiums, our indoor and outdoor sports for both boys and girls bring to all the good health so necessary to success. Training in leadership is provided by the different clubs and or- ganizations sponsored by the school. A school of 2,ooo, comprising at least half a dozen different nationalities, all future American citizens, offers ample opportunity for developing democracy and building leadership. And co-ordinating with all these opportunities, Portland High School strives to instil in all her boys and girls the great principles of dependable character-obedience, truthfulness, and honesty. In editing this, the 1934 Totem, our main purpose has been to offer to the students a compact history of the chief events and activ- ities of the current school year, and to give to the seniors, in partic- ular, a fitting remembrance of their four years in our school.
