Scgoof EOCUZ The students of Nampa High School are grateful to the board of directors of Inde- pendent School District No. 37 which has so generously and capably extended its service in a successful effort to make 1936 one of the most outstanding years in the history of the school. Each year, under the supervision of this public spirited group of citizens, new achieve- ments are recorded in the educational annals of the city. The new auditorium and gym- nasium will be of untold beneht to students for many years to come. Choosing capable teachers and supervising financial expenditures are only a few of the multifarious tasks.

Meyer, chairman of the boardf, is completing his seventh year in this capacity. Mr. Meyer is manager of the Nampa office of the Boise Valley Grain Association. Mr. W. H.

'jo kgs gtacfuating Cyan of 7936: You have completed an important episode in your life. You should remember that life is really a series of episodes -some important and some otherwise. Your teachers and parents have taught you many goals or objectives for living. Some have told you that to date the chief purpose of school and home life is to get ready to live more fully as adults. Some have said that you have gone to high school in order to be able to obtain big- ger and better jobs. Some have said you have attended high school in order to make more money. Many of you, of course, have attended high school largely because there was nothing else to do. As a parting thought, why not accept as the goal for the 1936 senior class, the slogan, The Pursuit of Happinessfj Not happiness in its lightest and most frivolous sense, but happiness as the outcome of complete living. This pursuit will require all of the knowledge learned in school up to this time, and a great deal more. In order to get the most 'ifun out of lifei' it will require the rarest judgment and skill-more rare than any of the learned professions, and it will offer the greatest rewards to be found in the world. Goodbye, and good luck! JOHN E. WALSH, SZlpC'Vi1'lff?7ldL'l7f Miss Gertude Miller, Treasurer and Clerk of School District No. 37, whose patience and vigilant econ- omy mainiain the Nampa High School as an efficient and modern institution, is to be greatly coffi- mended for her untiring service to our community. :ge 'we Ive
