Y PRCDLCDGUE When seniors arrive at the end of their four year sojourn in high school, they often ask the question, Wliat now is my part in the scheme of things? You can help to distill some of the good out of the present world condition. One result may be that in your time you will be able to control this human plague called War, just as men of our time controlled the yellow fever. You may help to erect a world order in which it will never be possible again for one man's wickedness to be- come all men's curse. Your own country thanks to the fathers who built ith-is intact. Never at any place, at any time, have any people developed so free a life as your people have developed in America. And with their original principles, they could develop it anywhee on eirth, if they had to. There are many who tell you that your country is imperfect, and it is, as the orchard in blossom is imperfect compared to the orchard in fruit. And in unreilegtive minds this often gives rise to a demand for radical change. Radical, violent change is the word of the destroyer who would burn the orchard down because blossoms have not yet become apples, and it is the escape of the weak-minded who would avoid the lnbog of cultivating the orchard. Arnerica's ruling word in her creative days was not violent change but development. Let the orchard grow and fulfill itself in fruit, give the fertile American principle roorn and the time, and an educated free electorate, and it will abundantly justify itself. This is where you fit into the scheme of things. MR. LAURENCE A. DUFFIELD, Principal.

PRCDDUCERS There is no greater public service than that rendered by the board of trustees of any public school. The school which we have at Analy today is due in a very large part to the public-spirited men and women who are serving now, and who served in the past as trustees. The board of trustees is the policy-making body of the school. lt is the func- tion of the administrative staff to carry out these policies. The board, elected by the pub- lic, serves for a threefyear term of office. Their legal authority comes from the state con- stitution and the education code. Their decision on school matters is final. Mrs. Gladys M. Brown, Guerneville, is president of the board and has served on the board since 1946. Mr. Donald M. Scott is clerk and has Served Since 1948. Mr. Burton M. Travis has served on the board since 1939. 1-fe has held the office of clerk and president for several terrns. Mr. H.
