SOUND STRUCTURE SCHOOL BOARD The Snohomish Schools are fortunate in that their School Boards for many years have been made up of people who have been sin- cerely interested in the well-being of every child in the community. The leadership and ability that the Board shows in their long-range planning has en- abled the Snohomish District to meet and solve partially the building and growth problems that nave been stumbling blocks to some dis tricts in the state. l SECRETARIES Nlrs. Hazel Ernster is secretary to Mr. Moe, the high school principal, and registrar. She keeps all information relative to high school attendance and grades. Also, she pre- pares transcripts for transfer students and for graduates who continue their education. Her duties are many and varied.

ARCHITECTS OF GEORGE A. MOORE Superintendent When James A. Garfield, the twentieth president of the United States was a young man, he served for a time as Professor of Ancient Languages and Literature and later as principal of a small college in Ohio called the Eclectic Institute. The story is told that during the time he was there as principal a mother came to the school and expressed a wish to enroll her son. John isn't interested in long courses, she said. What he wants are short courses that would enable him to get a iob and earn a good salary iust as quickly as possible. She then went on to say, she felt that to spend any more time in school than was abso- lutely necessary was only a waste of time. Garfield is said to have replied, Yes, we have short courses, and then he continued, What I remember in cases of this sort is that it takes God a hundred years to form an oak but only ninety days to grow a pumpkin. I think that ,all of us when we are young have a tendency to want to grow up too soon. Actually the things that are worthwhile are seldom attained through skimpy training and goals that seem wonderful when we are seventeen years old fail to meet the standards of our mature years. George A. Moore HAROLD B. MOE Principal A building can be no more firm than its foundation. Most foundations look the same. Their true strength is determined by the mater- ials and craftsmanship that go into their con- struction. For the first few years the cheap, poorly constructed foundation may apparently serve as well as the sound one. Eventually, however, under a sudden iolt or shock the weak foundation will crumble and the entire structure fall. You are now laying the foundation on which you will build the rest of your life. You have been provided good materials in the form of good books, new equipment and interested teachers. You have been taught to combine these materials with the ingredi- ents of strength of character, knowledge, honesty, loyalty, respect for home and love of God and country so that your foundation may be firm and solid. You and only you can know the kind of foundation you have laid. On the outside you all look quite similar, on the inside there are vast differences. I hope most of you have built wisely so that in future times of trouble and temptation, a sudden emotional jolt or shock will not cau e a weakene foundation .xl , L d . oe Superintendent.
