Message from Superintendent M. C. Dietrich Society is very similar to a cross-word puzzle. To be correctly solved, every person must be situated in the place in which he fits exactly. One misplaced in- dividual, one letter out of order and the solution is not complete. Many an individual apparently drops into his proper place without the least effort. A superficial examination of the result seems to indicate that he is properly located. Vertically he fits the puzzle perfectly. But the years go on. The letters in his name are required to fit other letters to make horizontal words. Something must be wrong. Evidently this name is out of place. What of your place in the puzzle of life? Have you been giving the matter serious consideration or have you been counting on luck to take care of you? Have you considered the fact that in life you must fit in every way, diagonally as well as vertically and horizontally? “But,” you say, “I am not very important. Society will proceed without me. 1 can fit in almost any place, for 1 am very small. My work will amount to very little.” You are wrong! No matter how small the word it must fit the puzzle both ways. Whether your ambition is urging you to larger things or whether you are going to be content with being a three-letter word in the cross-word puzzle of life you must fit perfectly or be cast aside. So let me urge you to be foresighted. Have “Vision” as well as sight. Whether you arc senior, junior, sophomore, or freshman, be on the lookout for your place in the scheme of things and start now to train yourself so that you will fit perfectly the place that falls to your lot.

 M. C. DiETRICH, City Superintendent of Schools For three years the senior class has had the pleasure of being under direct guidance of Marion C. Dietrich as principal—but last year he left us to assume the larger responsibilities of City Superintendent of School»—and now. although he is not as directly connected with the high school and its work as formerly, we still feel his influence and interest in our activities and affairs. The Kyote Class in particular has felt this and wish to express their thanks to Mr. Dietrich for the many encouraging things he has said to us and for his never failing advice and sympathy.

THE FACULTY TO those who have always guided us so faith- fully and unwaveringly, we, the Class of 1925, who are about to leave their classes and take the world for a teacher, wish to express our appre- ciation t the faculty of B. H. S. and to let them know in this way that we realize and will always remember the many things which they have so willingly done for us.
