Editorial E WHO are leaving St. Catherine's have had the opportunity to learn many things, not only how to study and to work together, but how to live up to the high standard that we have set for ourselves. Besides teaching us textbook knowledge, our teachers have been friends and advisers. They have shown us how to apply our book knowledge to our own lives. But all through school playing and having good times have been a large part of our education. We receive our diplomas as a symbol of these years of our lives that have held so much meaning and happiness. Our work in the Lower School was mostly play through which we learned co-opcra- tion. Along with the ABC's, we were taught reverence and obedience, and we changed our ideas in the upper grades, sorrowfully relinquishing our belief in fairies and a Santa Claus. There were two memorable changes in the Middle Schoolg we took home lessons and began wearing gym suits-real signs of growing up. There Miss Lulie directed us in our never-to-be-forgotten performance of Iulius Caesar. We had begun to apply ourselves to studying and to know the satisfaction of working hard when we entered the Upper School. Our Hrst year ,in the Upper School was significant since Student Government was new to us. We tried to lose our love of getting away with all possible mischief and to become a helpful part inthe honor system. Throughout the Upper School our responsibili- ties increased, and we have now learned the importance of shouldering and living up to them. Here at St. Catherine's we have had the opportunity to prepare ourselves for the future. - On leaving school, we have a certain feeling of accomplishment and an anticipation of being on our own. However, almost tomorrow society will expect us to be not only independent, but also mature and responsible. The tasks that fall to us will, naturally, be more important than the ones that we have faced at school, and the way in which we carry them out will be more far-reaching in their effect on others. With the world in its present state, we know that serious problems will face our generation. We must justify our splendid training by attacking these problems with confidence and vigor.
