12 THE REVIEW Student Body Activities Someone has said that opportunity knocks but once. This may be true when we are fighting our way through a heartless World, but it certainly is not true while we are in high school. For many wonderful opportunities are open to every student in what we call, Student Body Activities. The most important of the Student Body Activities are athletics, debating and public speaking, and the work of the various student body and class officers. Then there are numerous other positions which are important to a greater or less degree, among which are cadet officers, officers of and membership in organizations. ' And the opportunity? Briefly, it is this. Although there are many students participating in student body activities, there is always work to be found for those who are wide awake and know opportunity when they see it. Every student should make an effort to take all the responsibility he can, which is outside of his regular studies. Should this be done the student is vastly benefited. He meets new problems, and no matter what the solution, he comes to realize that there is a great deal more to success than can be gleaned from books. And the amount of benefit derived is always in pro- portion to the amount of responsibility taken. CLARENCE GOULARD. Our Library VVe wonder how many students in the Sacramento High School could have completed their studies with half the ease they did without the aid of the school library, the able librarian and her corps of assistants. The students hardly appreciate what a benefit our library is to them. It is one of the many things that are taken as a matter of course, but in reality it is extremely important. Miss jean Ross, who for fourteen years has been the librarian for the school and who left only recently for Southern California on a leave of absence, has built up the library in efficiency until it compares favorably with the libraries of much larger schools, and is one of the best for schools of our size. The library not only excels in efficiency of operation, but also in the number of volumes and the field covered by thern. Miss White, the present librarian, estimates that the books in our library cover about the most extensive range of any school library in the State of California. This is something for us as a school to be very proud of, and to show our apprecia- tion of by a willing co-operation with rules and regulations of the library and with the librarians in charge of it.

THE REVIEW To a Graduate Blessings on thee, mighty son, Yours is now a battle won, A battle short and not the last, But just the first one safely past. At last you have approached the gate Your life and goal beyond awaitg A bigger battle there you'll findg There'll be no time to lag behind. There'll be no ones and twos to make, Nor graduation as the stakeg But there you'll find your fighting counts As much as the reward amounts. It will not be all upward grade, Dusty, rocky, unsurveyedg But there'll be happiness to win, If you'll but let the sunlight in. And you'l1 find hardship will proclaim You final victor of the game. And bitterness or e'en defeat VVill only make you love the sweet. -Dolly Keenright, '26
