Mr. Paul Hieronymus' chemistry class performs a laboratory experiment. Ln Cu rn cu Zum Knowledge, the key to a studentis success in life, is accentuated by the very competent teachers of U. S. Grant. Wisdom is the main goal set by our forefathers that we, the students, try to achieve by attending school. ' From the first day of school, our teachers help us learn the principles of being a helpful and use- ful citizen. If we retain this knowledge that is so diligently being given to us, we may not only suc- ceed in life for ourselves, but we will also prove to our teachers that their hours of preparing us for our future are not in vain. Learning can be made fun and enjoyable to all who are interested. If a capable student comes to school, with a will to learn, school will be no serious problem or burden to him.

The Spoken Word . . . U. S. Grant helps to adjust students for the future and helps them to see the necessity of an education by offering excellent subjects in many fields such as French, English, Great Books, and many more. Shakespeare once said, There is a tide in the af- fairs of men which taken at the flood, leads on to for- tune. Once one has grasped the full importance of an education he has taken the first step toward acquiring a capacity for it. Making a pact with onself to set a goal and striving until it is found and achieved will help oneis de- termination grow even in the darkest moments. After one has accomplished his goal, he will have many memorable memories and he the proud possessor of a completed goal. Dehaters Pam Ellis and Bill Gill discuss plans for a future tournament.
