MR. IACKSON PRICE. Principal oi S.U.H.S. I I I The public high school was first established in l82l. lt evolved from the old Latin Grammar School and was far different from the high school of today. In contrast to the modern secondary school which is now attended by all the children of all the people, only those of the well-to-do class were fortunate enough to be able to attend. But perhaps the most striking difference between the early high school and the one of modern times was that the former had a very limited course of study W - no extra-curricular activities, no shop, no gym- nasium, no drarnatics, no music, no athletics, no socials. Such activities were not allowed, were not even considered. Your school life at Shasta would indeed be drab if only academic studies such as Latin and mathematics were pursued. Perhaps some of the most valuable lessons you learn in the modern high school are incidental to the main curricu- lum and are not learned out of books. The opportunity to participate extensively in activities which contribute to social understanding and to good citizenship should be realized and used by all. Club, committee, and team activities sometimes make the finest contribution to the development of a complete personality. Seniors can reflect with satisfaction upon a tour-year high school experience, undergraduates should contemplate seriously their opportunities and use them well.

i ' I A bright, new future lies ahead. As we near graduation, the brink of a new world with broad, unknown horizons, we look forward with the optimism characteristic of American youth and yet with an intermingled feeling of sadness. We are sad, for our graduation night may be the last time we shall see many of those who have gone to school with us and have been our friends. High school com- mencement marks the end of our childhood, but it is the beginning of a new life. We are freshmen once again, freshmen in college and neophytes in an adult world - depending in which sphere our choice is made. When we have graduated the only tie between us will be the Shasta Daisy: we hope it will be a strong bond, for since our annual was created in l909, its aim has been to record and preserve memories for every Shasta High graduate. May your Daisy truly be a treasury of memories! Sincerely, LOUISE I-IAYS
