But many new challenges f await them in the tuture. The intensive study of college, the rigors of the armed services, the finding of 0 suitable occupation, the problems of rearing a family, the choice of new friends are all new situations which each senior must face with clear thinking, courage, and patience. However, his experience at Walnut Hills 03 0 student has given him training to meet these problems realistically and con- structiveiy. Resourcefulness end preseverence were learned in completing new and difficult assignments. His understanding and appreciation of many different individuals have made him flexible so that he knows how to tit in with new 05- societes. He has learned the necessity of spirit and drive but also the evil of greedy ambition. SeIt-discipline and high principles of conduct encouraged by the faculty will guide his decisions. From the successes and failures of 0 number of years he has developed a sense of humor about himself and learned to c:c- cept disappointments philosophically. Thus the understanding which the student seeks and gains at Weinut Hills proves valuable both at the present and in the adjustment to the future. 8

The professional competence of our staff of 62 teachers and four administra- tors is largely responsible for the recognition Walnut Hills has so long en- ioyed for producing outstanding graduates. They have successfully undertaken the task of giving us adequate preparation, not only for college, but for life in general. Through class discussion, explanations of the more complicated phases of each course, and the assignments which we perhaps grudgingly ful- fill, they are leading us in our search for understanding. The results of their work are shown in our knowledge of the subject and in our improved ability to think clearly and learn quickly. In giving up many hours of their own time advising clubs, directing plays, and coaching our various athletic teams, they make possible the many extracurricular activities which are so important in the development of a pleasing personality and strong character. This year seven newcomers ioined the ranks of our teaching force, adding their new methods to the experience of the other members of the stuff. Training youth and preparing them for the adult World is 0 great responsibility, and much credit is due our teachers whose lives cure dedicated to this goal. 10
