Mrs. Helen Southee, Secretary to Mr. Hazard; Mrs. Celia Arnold, Secretary to Mr. Bartholomew. Our school has its own accounting department. The work of this department is in the capable hands of Mrs. Southee, Mr. Hazard's secretary, and Mrs. Arnold, Mr. Bartholomew's secretary. The accounting department of Athens High resembles the payroll department of the Ingersoll Rand --they both make a definite contribution to the efficient operation of the industry . ll

CLASS OF 1953: This year completed fifty years of achievement for the Ingersoll Rand Company, the mainstay in the economic life of our valley. Your yearbook staff has, very appropriately, used this notable event as its theme and has developed a parallel between the industry and high school education. May we develop a parallel beyond your graduation? We believe that the same basic elements which are necessary to produce notable success in an industry are also essential to make a life notably successful. I will list a few. First, an industry and a life must be able to recognize an essential need of humanity and plan to contribute to that need if lasting success is to crown their efforts. Secondly, they must build up confidence in their product by never offering shoddy and low grade workmanship. When the public is led to expect much from any person or industry by a glowing build up only to be duped by receiving something cheap or inferior, its confidence is destroyed and any advantage gained through such deceit can only be temporary at best. Thirdly, they must not be satisfied with things as they are but ever study to keep abreast of the times and to meet the ever changing needs of humanity with new and improved procedures. The education of an industry or an individual can never be considered as complete. Remember the ancient words of wisdom, This, too, shall change. Only by constant study and alertness can the successful crest of the waves of change be ridden and the trough of oblivion be avoided. Fourthly, immediate profits must not be the goal. Often the worthwhile profits are much enhanced by having been deferred until real value has been established and the services can be more highly appreciated. Believe with all your heart in what you are doing or don't do it. If the value to humanity is there, the appropriate reward will follow in due time. Other parallels might be drawn. We believe this will suffice for the present occasion. Our wishes for your continued success in the ways that are lasting are very sincere. MR. IRVING HAZARD High School Principal MR. RALPH HOPKINS 10
