School Spirit
Some students in school fail to ap-
preciate what the education they re-
ceive, or should receive, will mean to
them in later life. They are probal •
ly under the impression that they are
wasting their time. They may lie
but that is because they have no very
worthy ambitions. likely, i. asked
what their ambitions were, they would
not know what the question meant;
or if they were lortunately able to
understand, they would say an anim-
al trainer, a snake charmer or some
such unimportant vocation, or might
it be called vocation?
In a school where such conditions
as these exist, there can he little pro-
gress as far as school spirit is con-
cerned. Unfortunately, there are tew
pupils in an institution that can de-
fine the phrase. Many are the boya
who enter high school with the ex-
pectation of going through high
school on an athletic career. Think
how much better would be the boy's
educational foundation if he would
give the appropriate amount of time
to study and devote the remainder to
athletics. This is an altogether difler-
ent and more suitable view of the
circumstances. If the average stud-
ent would become eager to take part
in all affairs connected with the
school, there would he much more
enjoyment in school life for all con-
cerned. A good beginning on the
pathway of sohool spirit is to look up-
on your instructors as human beings
like yourselves, consider their side of
the questions that seem unjust to
you, help them in their work by car-
rying out your assignments, and in
everything that you do, he in a pleas-
ant humor, be agreeable and above
all don’t be a pessimist. Then, it
these few suggestions are followed,
the establishment ol a school spirit
should be well under way.
