kh Mmayt ?mm 011! Principal Dear Boys and Girls, R As you glance through your year book, you will see pictures and descriptions of many of the wonderful events that have taken place this year at Stitt. Field day, 'the book fair, the Operetta and talent show, club activities, the intervisitation project with J. H.S. 115, and the fine assembly programs - these are only a few of the highlights of the busy months now behind us. But there is one golden thread woven through this tapesty of days. It is best exemplified by our theme: TOGETHER WE WORK AND PLAY. And the mostimportant of those five words is the first. Time after time Ihave been proud of the way you have worked together as a team on the different activities in which you have engaged. You have learned the most important lesson of life, the lesson that the greatest satisfaction comes from working with others toward a common goal. A poem of mine expresses this feeling better perhaps than any other message I could think of giving you. It reads as follows: Who wanders in will look on more than school. For here the young teach action to the old. In every room the ancient Golden Rule Becomes alive and stands as only gold. They need no rule, these children black and white, Who sit together, walk with arms entwined; So close to God, they still reflect His light; Not yet the dust of years has made them blind. The emotion that inspired those verses may have been a trifle ex- aggeratedgw but I do hope that the poem will serve to help some of you remain as you are in your very best moments -images of the Spirit that created all of us, regardless of race or nationality or creed. I take this opportunity to thank the staff of the Year Book for the ex- .cellent work they have done under the leadership of Mr. Jacober. Finally, on behalf of the entire faculty I extend my warmest congratu- lations to the graduates and their parents. EUGENE T. MALESKA , Principal
