Fo PQWO PCI Man does not live by bread alone. ln their study ot humanity, philosophers have tound that there are certain intangible and abstract torces which shape man's existence and influence his ideals. The part that these torces play grows in impor- tance as man grows older and wiser, Years at high school are surely tormulative ones tor the germination ot moral incentives, De- riving our inspiration trom the philosophy ot Abbe Dimnet, as expounded in his book, What We Live Byfl we have chosen as the theme ot our Periwinkle those three spiritual torces which, in his opinion, epito- mize manis striving toward the intinite, the true, the beautitul, and the good, Gur book has been divided into three sections, Seniors, Fac- ulty, and Activities. The clubs, societies, and other extra-curricular matters are so interpreted as to tall under the three major groupings. The art statt has cooperated with the literary statt in vivitying and interpreting the theme. Thus have we essayed to weave the pattern ot the true, the beautitul, and the good throughout the book, By elimi- nating the purely literary material trom the yearbook and by concen- trating upon the pictorial, we hope that we have made our Periwinkle more personal and representative ot the students so that it will be a happy reminder ot tour protitable years at Walton. We wish to express sincere appreciation to the student members and taculty advisers ot the literary, art, personality, and business statts tor their generous and whole-hearted cooperation. lvlay the graduates ot the Class ot 337, when rereading the pages ot this book in later lite, once again experience the joys, mellowed sor- rows, and pleasures ot their years at Walton. lvlay they carry through lite the gitts ot truth, beauty, and goodness that Walton has bestowed upon them.
