S Every tradition grows ever more venerableethe more remote is its origin, the more confused that origin is. The reverence due to it increases from generation to generation. The tradition finally becomes holy and inspires awe. This quotation of Friedrich Nietzsche holds true at Tech now, and always will as long as such a capable administration as ours is at the head of the school. As generations pass, youth with its vigor, initiative and resourcefulness never changes. They make and set traditions which are then passed on to future genera- tions. Without the aid of the administration this would not be possible. The Board of Education sets the policies. The superintendent of schools carries them out and the principal enforces them. Through close harmony of these three agencies, St. Cloud has secured a school system which has been administered efficient- ly and economically. The students know and appreciate this fact and give all honor and credit of a successful school system to these three groups. To the Board of Education goes sincere praise for doing such an enormous task so capably and well. The board, consisting of six members, sacrifices much time for students of Technical High School, though they receive no renumeration or credit for their efforts. Not only do they decide upon the appropriations for every depart- ment and approve the school budget, and formulate the policies of the school govern- ment, but they are the sponsors of tradition. Without them, the traditions formulated by Tech students of the many years passed could not be carried on. It is up to them to decide whether these traditions and policies are worthy enough to be passed on. They are the nucleus behind Tech. Dr. H. B. Clark, C. J. Rose, J. A. Allen, Dr. N. J. Lahr, Dr. M.

Superintendent H. B. Gough continues his work of educational supervision with a record of twelve successive years of selected superin- tendent of public schools, to his credit. His job is not an easy one. It includes regulation of school expenditures, introduction of new courses of study, preparation of school budgets, execution of Board of Education decisions, and arrangements for new school buildings. In a school of this size it is necessary for the stu- dents to have capable and efficient leaders. Mr. Gough has fulfilled this position to the point of perfection. The students have come to know him as a genial person who has only their interests uppermost in his mind. During his time at Tech High, he has established en- during traditions which have become an in- B GOUGH tegral part of the administration of the school. MR. H' Miss Elizabeth Clark, our principal, is the center of the school. To her goes full credit for building our school well through her inspiring leadership and high American ideals. She has promoted principles of democracy and instilled in students a gratitude for being American citizens. Her splendid personality has proved unusually favorable with all these, while her daily activity has won many personal friends. Few men have endeared themselves to as many students in so short a time as our vice-principal, Mr. Frank J. Herda. Under his guidance, the students of Tech have successfully selected subjects which will help them not only now but in many years to come. One of his accomplishments at Tech is the re-estab- lishment of the National Honor Society.
