' ovemoro N place of the customary description of his wares, an anonymous advertiser in last year's SAGAMORE substituted the slogan, Let the Spirit of Roosevelt Prevailf' ' The world will never know the identity of this advertiser for he gave his name only as A Booster but the patrons of Roosevelt High School will long remember the wish expressed in this inspiring slogan. While it is entirely proper for the editors of this year's annual to recount the accomplishments of our school during the first decade of its history, it is even more appropriate to view these accomplish- ments in the light of the spirit that has dominated our efforts during this decade. It is always interesting to the patrons of a school to read about the victories won in forensics, poetry, music, athletics, and many other activities: but that which is most gratifying to them is to know that in our efforts to win victories and laurels for our school we have made a name for our Alma Mater in true sportsmanship, in a low percentage of failures and a high percentage of honor students, in an esprit de corps that has won the universal commendation of those who have been acquainted with our school. It is safe to predict that if the spirit of Roosevelt will continue to prevail in the next decade as that spirit has prevailed during the ten years now drawing to a close, this institution of learning will exert a powerful influence for good in the years that lie ahead.
