To the Seniors of 1939 Congratulations to you upon your success- ful completion of your work in the public schools of America, climaxed with a diploma from your beloved Lincoln High School. Your record of achievement will stand through the years as your memorial, be it fair or foul, whatever you have made it. Our heartiest congratulations to you upon your efforts, especially if your efforts represent your best. As you open the door to life's school our very best wishes go with you on the long, long journey across the years. Again you are constructing a memorial for yourself which may also serve as a guide to other travelers along the same road. I hope that you will remember that God smiles on the man or woman. who, through honest toil, attempts to better himself and society. Good-bye and good luck to you! BURRUS E BEARD, A. B. and lVl. A.. S. U. I. S'lPT. BURRUS E. BEARD To the Class of l939 As you close your book on the last chapter of your elementary and secondaiy education, may I leave the following challenge with you? Many nations today are regimenting and training young men and women to .1 fixed pattern like a manufacturer produces machines. The training is so thorough and effective that these human beings respond like a machine responds. Individualism PRINCIPAL OSCAR G. JOHNSON is lost and crushed. Our great free nation is based on individuals. What have you to offer your fellow men as your contribution to society? Another ism you should remember, be- sides individualism, is Humanism. Show an interest in your fellow men, be of service, and there will be no doubt about the out- come of your contribution to those around you. Do not lose the Traditionalism you have gained in Lincoln High School. Be a winner! Have the courage to go ahead when the going gets tough. Accept the congratulations of the faculty and myself upon your graduation from high school. We wish you success and happiness. OSCAR G. JOHNSON, B. S. at I. S. T. C. Graduate work at University of Colorado. University of Minnesota. 7
