ri -ur' i ,ew I Kids M.,-ff ,,o,,,-,.,,.,,..cs..-an we H. R. BARTON Superintendent By definition, music is a beautiful or pleasing arrangement of sounds. What is pleasing to one individual is not necessarily so for another. Some find rest and comfort by the blending of instruments in the rendition of a Beethoven symphony, others will prefer a blues singer in the interpretation of a Hogy Carmichael composition while others receive satisfaction in a Harry James rendition of a iauy, rhythmic composition. A very small percentage of individuals find no inspirational effects in music. Education is not universal in its effects and it is good that it isn't. lf we all had the same degrees of desires along the same line, society would cease to exist in a very short time. We can't all be doctors or engineers or common laborers. There must be the designer and administrator as well as those who perform the task of constructing or assembling. ln- dividuals must be schooled in the various lines of duty. It is the obligation of the school to partially train the individual sa he will be equipped to accept the responsibility that confronts him. A. F. BENNEST Principal Of all the arts, music is perhaps the most uni- versally accepted. Music is o part of our daily living. The artists who thrill us and the musical ensembles of top rank exemplify the highest type of devotion lo the ideal of selfqsacrifice and the qualities of teamwork that find a counterpart in the field of education. Your school training is intended to make you better fit to play your part in the responsibility that you have to yourself and to society for successful living and useful citizenship. It is the hope of all those who have contributed to your educational opportunities that you have learned your part well ond that you will find a useful expression of that learning in your future happiness. gg i ix we 1 uxlxxnxulllll lt i- gli 5 Q 1un1nvvnvuwx1x1w11 NHS A -' ' ' sa'fz,,.g3allvNi ef...,w.n.u-minus-e .wewffm-.sms ,.,..,..., ' x
