TO THE STUDENTS OF THE ALTONA HIGH SCHOOL Congratulations for launching out into a new venture, that of publishing a yearbook. May it be a tie and also a fond remembrance of your high school days. Many of you will be wondering which vocation or profession you should enter. Now is a good time to give consideration to such thoughts. Set your goals high; strive steadfastly and unswervingly to accomplish your aims. But in choosing your profession bear in mind not how much you can get out of it yourself but rather how can I best serve God and my fellowmen. With such a goal your life will take on a new meaning and purpose. A life of service is infinitely more richer and satisfying than one that has selfish aims as its motive. TO THE GRADUATES Our good wishes go with you wherever you may go and whatever you may do. TO THE OTHER STUDENTS May you be encouraged to go on in your studies. TO ALL OF YOU Think on this verse— Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2. Tim. 2:15. D. W. Friesen Sons Ltd.

FOREWORD The publication of this year book serves to com¬ memorate three important milestones in the history of the Altona Public School. First, the high school grades recorded an enrolment which is larger than that of any previous year. Indeed, it was so large that for a period of some eight weeks there was an enrolment of sixty-four in a single room. Secondly, the new year witnessed the elevation of the high school section to the status of a Collegiate. This came about when a fourth teacher was added to the Collegiate staff. Thirdly, the new year saw the completion of forty years of teaching service by one of the teachers on the staff. We place this milestone in the career of one of our teachers last, not because it merits last position, but for the sake of emphasis. The first two milestones pale in com¬ parison. In this foreword, we would also like to thank the many businesses, institutions, and individuals who purchased advertising space in this year book. We also thank the people who made anonymous contributions. Without this financial assistance this year book could not have materialized.
