EWENE A MESSAGE FROM MR. SACKETT My Friends: l am convinced that high school is a place where boys and girls are happy. I get no greater thrill than in meandering through the corridors before school or at the passing of classes, or in standing on the ground Hoor at the foot of one of the stairways at dismissal timeg everyone is happy. l am glad that it IS so. When the first schools were formed-many centuries before this country was even discovered-there were no school buildings. Students met with their teachers to discuss and argue matters of importance. School to them was a place of leisure. We do not now think of it in that way, but l wish we could. l do not mean to favor a school where there is nothing to dog some of us are unfortunately now inflicted with rather serious symptoms of a malady that might be called Hleisureitisf' l mean, rather, a school where we might all learn as much as we do now, but where we should not feel driven to our studies, where we studied because we wanted to, and where we had plenty of time to hnish a discussion or demonstration or experiment without any ringing of bells or going after detained slips. However, l suspect that in those ancient days students were not exposed to so many distractions as we are today,- perhaps they did not have so many outside dutiesg quite possibly they were no happier than students are today. A school is not a place in which to make mere filing cabinets of our brains, though filing cabinets are very useful and necessary in any well-ordered business. There must be much of this type of work in school, because we need a great amount of facts carefully catalogued. But the act of getting our education should not stop at this stage. The Word education means to develop the facts that are available, and it is the task of us teachers not only to impart information but also to teach students to know how to use this information. At all events, be happy about it. Give your school an opportunity to serve you to the limit of its ability. May the pages that follow in this volume be a happy record to many of you that are soon to complete your high 'school work, and may it be an inspiration to many others to live richly your remaining terms. Most sincerely yours, C. H. SACKETT Eight
