At the beginning of each year, approximately one hundred and sixty eager young boys and girls stand awkwardly before a massive treasure chest, Tolleston High School, which contains countless jewels of priceless values. Wondrous as it may seem, each boy and girl holds in his possession a key to this mystical chest, a key forged from personal initiative. When the freshmen unlock the chest, they hold in their hands beautiful gems as sparkling as sapphires and as iridescent as perfect opals. These jewels, which the freshmen draw, will not bring a king's ransom but will prove to be infinitely more valu- able to their possessors, for these jewels are the education of mind and soul. Each owner will feel the thrill of pride and satis- faction of tasks well done and friends well made. To these freshmen, then, is imparted the glow of preciousness of the first insight into the power of knowledge and co-operation. As the sophomores and juniors step to the chest of treasure, they find that it holds for them the beginnings of the intricacies of maturity, finely carved as ancient jade. Suddenly these boys and girls are taller, they are filling out. They sometimes do very silly things, yet they are conscious of a desire to know better, to act properly. They are conscious of an awareness of the opposite sex, of the means of a livelihood. They begin to date, they begin to join various types of organizations, they begin to take interest in courses that will help them earn a living. These sophomores and juniors are stringing together the pearls of wisdom. To the seniors, the young men and women next in the line for treasures, thoughts of colleges and careers are prominent. For them the chest holds scholarships and offerings of greater know- ledge, jewels of the rarity of blood-red rubies. For them, also, the chest holds shimmering diamonds of romance and of many fields waiting to be explored. Thus, one by one shall the freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors, aided and abetted by faculty and parents, pass through our book and Tolleston High School and discover the offerings of the treasure chest.
