OI' NVOOIJRUXV WVILSOS JUNIOR IIIGII SCHOOL To the Sponsor and Staff of the BOOSTER: May I congratulate you on the happy choice of your theme for the 1932 Yearbook. You are depicting in your annual the wonderful drama of Okla- homa. We see the Spaniards, the Frenchmen, and Indians playing out their skit on the stage of our state's history. Then the West of pioneer days passes in review. The Indian and the buffalo gives way to the cowboy making the uproarous cowtown resound with his whoopie. Next comes the pony express, the stage coach and the iron horse blazing a trail across the plains of the bison for the covered wagon of the 89er heading towards the promised land. Oklahoma is like a great cauldron, into which has been thrown the ingred- ients which produce the unique blend of Oklahomans represented in Wilson school. The pioneers may have vanished from the forests and plains but their unconquerable spirit still lives. Their courage and resourcefulness is an inspira- tion to us. I am glad that you are honoring them by dedicating your Yearbook to the Pioneer Wfoman. ROY B. BRADSHAW. I9 THE BOQSIER '52

Theiunique story of Okla- homa should be known and understood by all who come through the junior high school. The history of our great country contains no more alluring and romantic story than that of Oklahoma. Your endeavors only make such appre- ciation so much the more effective. I am pleased, also, to note that your yearbook is dedicated to THR PIoN1'il2la WOMAN. She typifies the courage, vision, and faith which have been the foun- dation of our commonwealth. Your study of the qualities which made the pioneer woman cannot but serve as a challenge. Our geographical frontiers have disappeared. Nevertheless, there are social frontiers, economic frontiers, and frontiers of idealism which call for the same sterling qualities which char- acterized our pioneering forefathers. The pioneer spirit should lead you as you come to grips with the problems of modern life. Za. gm I9 THE BOOSTER 32 llmia 12

The choice of theme for your Yearbook is evidence of your appreciation of the progress of our great state. I hope that in your study of the noble char- acters to whom you so fittingly pay tribute you may find a challenge to make of yourselves all that you are capable of becoming. Our country is no longer in need of individuals uv settle a frontier or conf qucr a wildcmcssg but, it is sorely in need of individuals, imbued with courage, loyalty, devotion, and enthusiasm to work with others in a common struggle against poverty, disease, ignorance, and lawlessness. If your study has made you appreciative of the past and its traditions, it has, no doubt, made you critical of the present and will aid you in effectively facing the future. May it create within you a desire and an ambition to per' petuate the democratic ideals of the founders of this commonwealth. I9 THE BGOSIER 32 I'xr:i-, I4
