0 Robert S. l-licks I THE PRlNCIPAL'S MESSAGE-This has been a most pleasant year tor all ot us. I am sure that this year book expresses and carries out that thought, My mes- sage is one ot gratitude. All ot you have been most considerate and wondertully co- operative. lt has been a great ioy to me to haye been associated with you this year in this mutually important enterprise, Gt all the loyely things which lite brings to us, nothing is tiner than the smiling, triendly greeting ot high school boys and, girls. Ot all the people in the world I would rather claim you as my friends, and trust that l may do so. lt is my earnest wish that Trail's End will present to you an interesting record ot your happiest days, a record which will not only remind you ot the past but one which will point the way to a successful, happy tuture. The title ot your book suggests the spirit ot the pioneer, That spirit, without gues- tion, is the tinest known in American his- tory, lt is surely worthy ot our emulation. As the American pioneer pushed ever out- ward into the unknown, meeting with courage and without complaint the many trying hardships along the way, so may you push torward into other unknown areas ot mental, social, and spiritual tasks. My best wishes are extended to each ot you as you go torth. Cordially yours,
