French Club Quill and Dagger T THE boisterous mass meeting, when the whole school assembled to start another school year, a new Freshman class of 786 was formed of unknowns who later supplied the leaders ofthe school. The first year was a matter of mapping a course through strange rules and places with our Fresh- man advisers as able guides, and of becoming acquainted with our fellow members. During this year the Woodward Chapter of the National Honor Society was formed. The Sophomore year established us as a class organization under the leadership of Billy Ray, president. Two important events were given by the class: i'The Spring Frolic,', the annual Sopho- more dance, and Once in a Palace, the class play presented by the newly-organized i'Little Thea- ter Guild. The Junior year was again a period of adjustment. Many ofthe affairs of the school were being placed in our hands, and under the direction of Mr. Philo Dunsmore and Miss Amie Miller, the class was soon started. Immediately after the election of the Junior class cabinet, with Sam Schall as president, the hilarious i'Kid Partyi' took place. The Little Theater Guild, keeping its promise of success, chose Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farmi' as the class production. A capable committee chose the class rings which were given out in the spring. The Junior Prom in the Chamber of Commerce ended the activities of the year. ' In the usual rush of the last year, elections were held early and Justin Hering became senior president. Cyrano de Bergerac was given by the Little Theater Guild. Wllhe Hick Party, a mid- season event, was followed by the Senior play i'Pomander Walk. Commencement occupied the rest of the year. The class which had been closely knit together for four years again separated into the indi- viduals from whom it was formed, with many memories of commonly-shared pleasures. .L Wayne Lemont Sharon Leibovitz Paul Levandowski Dorothy Leon Michael Liwo Kathryn Lowden Industrial Arts General General Commercial industrial Arts Commercial Honor Society 3, 4 French 2, 3, 4 Spanish 1, 2, Sr. Friendship Honor Society 2, 3, 4 Sr. Friendship 3, 4 Engineering Society 4 International 2, 3, 4 Art Klan 1 Plane Society 1, 2 Tattler Staff 2, 3, 4 Hi-Y 4 Electrical Club 2

Calculated to bring the power of the mind into operation .... to qualify a youth to fill use- fully and respectably many of those stations, both public and private, in which he may be placed .... an education that shall fit him for active life, and shall serve as a foundation for eminence in his profession, whether mercantile or mechanical .... High schools are not free schools in the sense that they do not cost anything. They are called free schools because they are supported by public funds supplied by general taxation so that anyone may attend regardless Such schools have existed in the United States for only a short time. The pioneer work for a state school system and tax supported schools occurred in Massachusetts, and was done by Horace Mann, a lawyer. The schools of Massachusetts were declining. Provi- sions for schools were bad. People of means were sending their children to private schools which threatened to displace public education completely. Horace Mann recognized the danger and in one lecture to the people said: These schools at the present time are so many independent communities, each being governed by its own habits, traditions, and local customs. There is no common superin- tending power over them, there is no bond of brotherhood or family between them. They are stran- gers and aliens to each other. Under the leadership of Mann the followers of the common school movement finally won out and later every state of the union adopted public schools.

Your happy days have vanished, but their memory lingers still, The lonely spot left in our hearts there's nothing can refill. Sometimes we donit appreciate the pleasures we receive From our school of youthful days, till it's time for us to leave. We'1l wish we all were back, just to hear those bells once more, To see the students filing in and out the many doors, We'll visualize the fountain, where for a drink we stood in line, X Then we'd hurry to our class, hoping we'd reach the room on timeli So we aim to work on upward till we reach that mountain crest VVhere Weill stand with many others who have worked with zeal and zest. We'll look back on our hardships, and to you, Woodward, alone We'll shout the cry of triumph for success that is our own. Betty Jane Kaslly, Zethalethean Literary Society.
