To exalt these objectives and to hold them ever before the school as goals towards which all should strive, is the purpose of the Society. It induces the students to aspire to scholarly habits, enlisting in worthy service and leading forward in all things that advance the welfare of the school. As the keystone is placed bv the builder to hold the perfect arch in perpetual stability, so the structure of our education must be held firm and true to the purposes of life by the virtues represented in the society’s symbol. Scholarship is the power of the mind to dispel ignorance ami superstition through scientific investigation ol truth; Leadership is the power of personality that blazes the trail for man’s upward climb; Character, the composite of all the common virtues, sets the seal of righteousness upon our every endeavor, while Service is the beginning and end of our education, the altar ol altruism from which God’s blessings to man have been vouchsafed. Pupils eligible to election in the National Honor Society must stand in the first fourth of their respective classes in scholarship. Of this one-fourth, fifteen per cent of the graduating class may lie chosen. In picking out this first one-fourth, grades for the first and second years are counted along with grades of later years. The list of pupils arranged alphabetically is then submitted to a committee of teachers for their consideration. The members picked for the National Honor Society must belong to that fifteen per cent of the class which is most representative, not only in Scholarship, but in Character, Leadership, and Service. Se ven persons were chosen to represent the Class of 1931 in the National Honor Society. The newly-elected members are Ida Amicangioli, Mary Brown, Savino Cavender, Sylvia Kujala, Alvin Kumpula, Sylvia Lien, and Mildred Plichta.
