Before we pass out from the high school, we wish to express our appreciation to one who has inspired us to high ideals and helped us to attain them. Whenever we have been perplexed or troubled, we knew that there was always one to whom we might go with our problems, feeling that her wise and gentle counsel would give us new light and courage. Her great faith in us has helped us to keep high standards in our school life, and to bring out our very best in all our work. We shall ever remember our teacher, fellow-worker, and friend, Mrs. jane Carroll Byrd. Q HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE . ' 'i To the school motto-- Good Scholarshipg A Square Deal: Good Fellowship , the Olive and Gold now adds its slogan- Honor to Whom Honor is Due . From its beginning until now this principle has been the policy of the magazine. Now that the editorship has fallen to us, we have tried to live up to this rule. In this record of the year, we have thrown the emphasis where it has belonged. Often as underclassmen our vision has been blurred by personal preference, but now as seniors about to graduate we see things more clearly. To the principal and the faculty in leaving we would say that in our opinion nowhere else can be found such a band of devoted men and women, whose sincere friendship and helpful guidance has made of our days in the Santa Barbara High School life and food for future years . A noted essayist once wrote of the sundial which bore the following inscription: Horas non numero sine serenas, I count not the days unless they are bright. So we remember only the bright hours spent under the direction of our teachers. alllfllflllU!PXllfIlllll'lPll1!lhlll .XQQHLY f-fw'z7Q9' sly ,.g4.1mre,.?

onrve AND G'0LD 119-I THE FORGE The Forge has entered upon a new era of its existence. Instead of an unorganized and poorly arranged weekly, we now have a regular newspaper, carefully balanced and in good form with no one phase of school life featured to the exclusion of others. After a year of trial, we feel justified in saying that now The Forge is a creditable paper, one that we are proud to send to our exchanges, for we know that other schools will now get a proper impression of our student-body. This change has not been brought about without a struggle. At the beginning of the year, many students thoughtlessly criticized The Forge because it did not resemble a sporting edition of Life . In addition to this the circulation was poor, advertisers were few, and the cost of printing higher than ever before. In spite of all this, The Forge has arrived. The success of this enterprise has been due to the perseverance of Ida McGeary, editor-in-chief, and the careful supervision of Miss May Murphy, instructor in jour- nalism and critic of publication, who, in spite of discouragements, and active opposition where support was most expected, have held to their ideals of what a high school paper should be, and have made for us The New and Better Forge.

A OUR SNAP-SHOT CONTEST We call attention to our snap-shot department. This year the contest was one of the most interesting and successful held in connection with the Olive and Gold . On account of lack of space it was impossible to print all the snapshots that were handed in. The winners are Mr. Jack Vince, hrstg Mr. Robert Canterbury, second: with honorable mention given to Miss Anna Lincoln and Mr. Harvey French. We hope to see this department steadily made better from year to year.
