James J. Metcalfe 'T is education forms the common mind: Just as the twig is bent the tree's inclined Pope For most or our lives our parents and teachers have attempted to impress upon us the duties of each or us to ourselves, our homes, our country, and our world. Now we arc beginning to realize the importance of ourselves as indi viduals in the group of which we are a part. We are beginning to realize that the future ol' the \vorld rests heavily upon the quality of its youth and that we must accept the responsibility of making the best use of our lives from day to day that we possibly can.

I-Iexter, a competent teacher and a true friend, we dedicate the Bellevinois of 1951. I Tis faithful service as Registrar plus his jovial and pleasing personality have made him a person whom we've learned to admire and respect. In his description of the Clerk of Oxenford, Chaucer, the earliest of English poets, drew a picture of the true teacher. His love for books, his philosophy for living, his delight in continued study, his clear thinking and his moral integrity stand as a pattern through the centuries. It is the closing words that ring with meaning for teachers, with assurance for parents, and with signiFicance for all of us: "And gladly would he learn and gladly teach." E. G. Hexter 5 Working together diligently, and in complete harmony, as an inspired team, the staff members of this year's Belle vinois were most fortunate in receiving excellent cooperation from all quarters.
