6 THE SUTHERLAND CHALLENGE FOR 19254; The final number of The Suthel'land't for this year is. in- deed a fitting place for a few words from a representative of the Faculty. This is a message of sincere appreciation for the spirit of co-operation that has been manifested again and again during these months of school activitiese not merely at times when there was no particular cause of distraction but also on those occasions when special forethought, seIf-restraint and concentration ware essential to worthy endeavor. No one would maintain that all should be marked 100 per cent in this matter, for that is ideal. Even though a. few members of the school may have failed to exhibit this spirit sufficently to secure commendation, the attainment in general has been high. Who knows but what the time will come when the student body of Proctor High School instead of the Faculty will be writing this message of appreciation. And is that so unreason- able? For this. students of Proctor High. is in a certain sense, your school. It is yours to maintain at the high standing which it has held in the past. It is yours to develop into even a greater place of opportunity than your home yet dreamed of. To let this challenge go unheeded Will not be like you; to accept it will be a further manifestation of the Proctor High School spirit. A. D. L.
