Sunset High School - Sundial Yearbook (Dallas, TX)

' ss- We are proud of the successes of Sunset in its various activities during the five years of its existence. We are thrilled by its victories in athletic contests, we are stimu- lated by the achievements of its musical department, the excellence of its literary and R. O. T. C. departments, but the real satisfaction we should feel is its success in fields of scholarship and character building. Those of us who are entrusted with formulating the policy and ideals of Sunset believe that this school should be distinguished as a place where hard intellectual labor is the rule, and idleness and poverty of purpose the exceptions. We hope that you will set yourselves to make Sunset not merely a distinguished school, but an eminent one. The community in which we live will base its final judgment of us upon our method of disposing of the imponderable values in the equation of life. J. A. WILSON.

Ideals of Sunset As the gates slowly close on our high school career, we pause to look back over the short period of scholastic endeavor. In that one brief survey of the gain and loss of our graduation, we suddenly find it is the ideals gained here which have left the deepest impression upon our minds and hearts. Somewhere along the way we found the ideal of Fair Play. Perhaps the lesson that brought us that ideal was the hardest we ever learned. A little farther on we stumbled upon the ideal of Friendship. That was the sweetest lesson of them all. Farther down the road we learned the ideal of Sincerity. That, too, was a lesson not so easily learned. One milestone we passed when we learned to accept the ideal of En- deavor. That ideal exacted grit and good fight to pull us through. Then the greatest ideal of all came when we learned the value of Good Sportsmanship. The true man will play the sporting game to the end. He will not quit nor flinch at pain, he will not take advantage nor deny the victor applause and the conquered cheer. These ideals cost us Pride and Love of Self, perhaps more. But in che end we learned how dear to us the ideal is. It takes Fair Play to point the pathway, Friendship to keep us on the way, Sincerity to guard against the dangers, Endeavor to with- stand the trials, and Good Sportsmanship to help us reach the goal-a Fruitful Life.
