Mr. Clark. Vice-Principal JUST PLAIN LIVING these days is not so simple a matter as it was a generation ago. Life has become much more complex and encumbered with distracting and questionable influences. To truly live today, one must exercise a fine degree of discrimination. But after one has made such a statement as to the complexity of living, one should also say that it should be possible to live more vigorously and joyfully than it ever has been possible in the history of the world. The youth of our land are confronted with tremendous possibilities and marvelous oppor- tunities. It is the meeting of these possibilities and taking advantage of the opportunities which may bring real zest and enjoyment to life. Happiness cannot be obtained by the mere pursuit. It is the by-product of a life spent in strug- gling with opportunities and responsibilities. The challenges of this New Day, with its bewilderment, uncertainty, and crisis, should pro- vide a fine training ground for life enjoyment of the kind that is deep and lasting. But with all of the perplexities and difficulties, incident to challenges and struggle, youth has found and is finding that the great Northwest is so situated and constituted that there are numerous opportunities for obtaining refreshment and recreation of a kind that provides a true balance to a life of struggle and service. It is the proper mixture of these two, service to one s fellows and wholesome recreation, that the real Joy of Living” is possible. Let us hope Roosevelt High School students will learn the Way of Living completely. May they grasp the opportunities afforded by their Alma Mater to struggle and serve, that the Joy of Living may be found in large measure. FRANK JONES CLARK, Vice-Principal. 18

B U I 1L D I N Gr ADMINISTMATIOK WITH BUT ONE addition to the number of their group, the office and main- tenance forces managed remarkably well the routine and business work for 2400 students. Miss Anna Steendahl, the new office helper, not only worked in the office but aided late arrivals and taught mathe- matics. The following are some of the things which the office workers accomp- lished this year: up-to-date grade record for every student, personal file, check on all athletes, complete check of attendance, and a multitude of minor things. The maintenance force, under the direc- tion of Mr. McKnight, custodian, is a group of men and women who are not very well known to students but without whom the school could not run. They keep the building clean, keep the heat reg- ulated and maintain an orderliness and beauty throughout the building and grounds. Another part of the maintenance force is the lunchroom group with Mrs. Moore at its head. Perhaps one of the main reasons banquets and school lunches are so popular is that this group prepares such well-balanced, good meals. Certainly as every year goes by these workers, behind the scenes, deserve more recognition and credit for the work they do. serving Roosevelt High. Their faithfulness to the job after school hours and during vacation is proved by the fine appearance of the building and the smoothness with which it is run.In appre- ciation of their efforts, the students as in- dividuals and as an associated body are striving to make the work of this group easier by cooperating with them.
