There are those in the world today who are directing all of their energies toward the accomplishment of their own selfish desires and ambitions. Then the threads of their lives lead to discord, destruction and ultimate failure. But across this warp of selfishness and greed is shot a woof of peaceful ideals and democratic aspirations. There are those who are working for the common good or for the good of the weak, and the threads of their lives lead to peace, prosperity, but ultimate success. All here cannot avoid helping in the weaving of the texture of our high school life, but each day may decide whether he will warp or woof.
