The following was written by Alice Lee, who is a student in Meadow High School, seventh grade:
“I like to study better than anything else. I want a good education. A person never gets very far and is not of much use in the world without one.”
Edward Bok’s grandmother told him to make the world a bit more beautiful because he had been in it, and to give the world the best that he had and the best would come back to him.
“I want to make the world more beautiful by teaching and help some one else to learn to do more things to beautify the world.”
