4 THE GARNET AND WHITE EDITORIAL With the completion of this number of The Garnet and White, the staff finds its work for the year brought to a close. We have tried in every way to make the various issues of The GARNET AND White during ihe past year the best pos- ible. We realize that our work has been far from a standard of excellence. We realize, too. that if it had not been for the combined efforts of many, other than those on our staff, the success of our work this year would have been small indeed compared to what it has been. The members of the staff have cooper- ated splendidly during the year and have always put forth their best efforts in the preparation of each number. We wish to thank those members of the student body who were not on the staff, but who con- tributed material to the various depart- ments. We desire to express our appreciation to our advertisers for the support they have given us by advertising in The GAR- NET AND WHITE. Without them our magazine could not possibly have been a success. We hope that they have profited hy their advertisements. Those who lent us their support by enlisting as subscribers have also been largely responsible for our success. We hope that they have enjoyed each number of The Garnet and White during the past year enough to continue as subscribers in the future. We of the staff are sorry to discontinue our work. It has always been a pleasure and a source of satisfaction to know that we were contributing to your enjoyment in compiling each publication. To those who will take our places we wish the greatest success. It is our sincere wish that they meet with the same splendid cooperation which we have enjoyed dur- ing this past year. Another school year has gone. For some of us it was the last year, while for others it was just another one of the three years in high school. Those who have spent their time in the school and who are leaving it now have learned many things from their experiences in high school. If they were to give you the most valuable advice from their experience it would probably be to enter whole-heartedly into every worthy activity of the. school. Next year there will be an opportunity for those of you who will return to show what you intend to make of your oppor- tunities in high school. Many activities will have lost some of their most staunch supporters, since many of the leaders in these activities have been Seniors. In deciding which activities you will support there are several things to be con- sidered in making a wise choice. We may say. however, that there is very little chance of your lending your support to any unworthy activity, since any activity which has no real worth soon slips out of existence. Perhaps the most important thing to be considered in determining just what ac- tivities to participate in is your studies. School is primarily for studies. If you have difficulty with your studies, then you should not take part in outside activities. Another important thing is to limit your activilies. In doing this you must take into consideration the relative bene- fits of each and the amount of service you are capable of rendering in each. Following this plan, you will find that you will have little difficulty with your school work and that you will get the greatest possible benefit from your high school career.

A little trust that when we die We reap our sowing!—and so—good-bye!” —George du Mauri hr.
