"We can not expect our schools to be better or worse than society as a' whole,? hesaid and added that they merely reflect existing con ditions in the outside world. Dr. Stevenson stressed that schools are what "we ourselves make them." Other Speakers Others taking part in the exercises were the Rev. V. V. McArthur who gave the invoca tion and benediction; Superin tendent E. R. James, who intro duced the "guests; A. H.
