TABLE GROVE HIGH SCHOOL The course of study has several times been changed to m-eet expansive needs and conveniences, until there are but two grades in each of the four lower rooms and four full years in High School-a very good arrangement, indeed! A few y-ears ago, the number of students outgrew the ca- pacity of the building, so it was found ,necessary to erect a High School room on the second story. This made a very pretty build- ing when completed, and provided a large High School with cloak and lecture rooms. The present Superintendent and Princi- pal have added many modern conveniences and equipments, until the Table Grove High School to-day is much improved since 1891. Its walls, beautifully papered, are adorned by a new por- trait of Lincoln and a landscape by Corot. New book cases, one containing a new 22-vol. set of Internationals, a piano, and a lecture ro-om fitted for teaching elementary science, are parts of the equipment. , Your Snpt. has also fostered a lively and highly moral spirit in athletics, until his boys win contests in football and baseball from neighboring schools. and his girls meet and defeat in the basketball arena the teams from near by towns. Besides maintaining a high standard of regular work, these hold an oratorical contest for boys and a declamatory contest for girls once each year, their graduating class gives a class play, edits a High School Animal and participates in Commencement exercises, each of which means much extra work on the part of both teachers and pupils. However, patrons should n-ot be complacent and think that nothing more IS needed and no more progivess possible. Numbers may increase. materials and equipments wear out, and new things be needed to replace the old. There should be no lnmt to future progress and no lessemng of patrons' interest. To THE STUD13Nfrs: How many of you know that there are over 100 graduates from the Table Grove High School? Think of it! Over 100 people with diplomas from our High Sch-001 I Does a High School diploma mean anything? Perhaps not much to those who have never worked to 'ZU'lilL one, but it does mean much to those who have successfully done the High School work. lt stands as your certificate that you have accomplished a piece of work twelve years long-front primer to graduation. It means that you have been properly building your character during these y-ears, and it signifies that you have had your grit tested-that you have developed that quality sometimes called backbone, but better named by a former teacher, Sticle4t0-1't- ive'-11css. ' Wotildiilt you like to be a graduate of a school of over 100 alumni? VVouldn',t you like to be a member of a fraternity num- bering over 100? VVouldn't you like to be bound by the ties of high school fellowship? Vifouldnit you like to be a graduat-e of a school with 19 years of history? If so, the opportunity is yours. A high school education and a high school diploma are within the reach of every student in this vicinity. Think ser- iously about it. By an Alumnus, T. D. '9l. SIX
