12 GIVE REASONS WHY SOME STUDENTS FAIL (Continued from Page 10) Wide reading of the type of literature that is wholesome and furnishes the right kind of inspiration gives the high school student a background that is invaluable in his school work. Par- ents should encourage in every way the right kind of reading habits among their children and should inhibit as much as possible the insidious influ- ences of the trash that is seriously threatening the integrity of the minds and morals of our youth. New Trier oifers the following ad- vantages to the student to appeal to his interest and to aid him in doing better school work: 1. A splendid high school library. 2. Splendidly equipped wood and " meal shops. 3. A varied program of studies. 4. A fine orchestra, a splendid band and well organized and ably directed Glee Clubs. 5. Physical training facilities that admit of intra-mural sports which in- clude every boy and girl in school who can participate in athletic activi- ties. 6. Girls' Club which is interested in altruistic and philanthropic activities. 7. A boys' Hi-Y Club that stands for clean-living, clean speech, right con- duct and high endeavor. 8. Girls' Reserve which is an or- ganization that fosters the same ideals among the girls as the Hi-Y club does among the boys. 9. A Girls' Athletic Association that enlists the interests of the girls in health-giving sports of all kinds. 10. Athletic teams, Press Club, Ra- dio Club, and other organizations are designed to afford to other groups of students opportunities for self-expres- ison. 11. A new division room and spon- sor plan which is in operation this year is an effective aid to the students, as it provides a means whereby the sponsor teacher may become inti- mately acquainted with his particular group of pupils and assistance given where and when it is needed. It also admits of a more productive follow- up by the teacher on the work of the student. 12. A high school faculty that is recognized as one of the strongest in the country. This is the prime con- sideration in building up the efficien- cy of any school. Our teachers are very glad to render every possible as- sistance to students needing help. 13. A rich content of subject mat- ter in the courses that are offered at New Trier and a teaching corps that is gkillful in the presentation of this material. 14. An Honor Society that is to our high school what Phi Beta Kappa is to our colleges. This is a stimulus to high achievement in scholarships. When the honors for this society are awarded in the spring we give just as much if not greater prominence to the students making the Honor Socie- ty as we do to members of our ath- letic teams. 15. Each year at commencement, the names of all the students in all the classes having a general average of 90 or above are given public recog- nition. 16. Our T. N. T. club was designed to encourage all-round development on the part of our young people. It is very true in high school as in life that a number of students who are not particularly brilliant in their studies are natural leaders. It is this type of student that frequently is not an honor student from the stand point of academic accomplishments Member- ship in T. N. T. is a much coveted honor at New Trier, and the organiza- | tion is filling a real need. 17. We are endeavoring in every way to urge those of our students who go on to college to put forth ev- ery effort to make the best record possible while they are in college, not only for their own profit but for the sake of influencing in the right way the students at New Trier who expect to go to college. The successes of our former students are placed be- fore our boys and girls in every con- ceivable way in order that they may aspire to high standards of scholar- ship and leadership.
