As Members of the Senior Class of 1945-46 you are getting ready to become the graduates of June, 1946. If my count is right you will be the 48th class to be graduated from the Banning Union High School. Even as | write this, we who help in the administration of the school are preparing to register pupils for their classes of next year. Your places will be taken by the present juniors who in their turn will be succeeded by those who are now sophomores. Nothing could better illustrate the inexorability of the passage of time. You have had your day of brief authority and prestige. You are about to go forth into a world that will not react in quite the same way as your school world has done. This outside world will ask you for results. It will demand rather than invite. Whether you go to college or to a a eee job or into a home you will be tested and tried on the basis of DR. WILLIAM C. GUNNERSON what you can do. And because you will be graduates of a high Superintendent school much will be expected of you. We who have known you, July 1937 — March 1946 fervently hope that you will do your utmost to prove to your- selves and to the world that you are worthy of being graduates of this, your high school. DR. Wm. C. GUNNERSON t Standing: Mr. William Westerfield, Mr. Al Nelson, Mr. Frank Miller, Mr. Ray MRS. LOLA KELLER Trudeau. Sitting: Mrs. Rose Thompson, Dr. Gunnerson. Secretary

MR. ALBERT PETERSON Civies Physics U. S. Histery World History lamestown College, A. B University of North Dakota, M.S Superintendent March 1946 — June 1946 Gone is the builders temple, Crumbled into the dust; Fallen those stately arches, Food for consuming rust, But the temple the teacher builded, Will last while the ages roll, For that beautiful unseen temple Is a child's immortal soul. Every teacher builds his or her life into the lives of the pupils. As each day's sunshine adds new cells to the blade of grass or the mighty oak, so the deeds, hopes, and aspirations of each teacher are destowed in some measure upon each pupil. It is the fond hope of every teacher that each pupil will develop into a mighty living temple, indestructible and incorruptible. Pupils are the clay which the master teacher molds into the immortal. As the seniors move on into new journeys it is the fond hope that occasionally they will look back and wave to those who have helped and guided them. Always in memory they will see a friendly hand waving them confidence anew, and if they will listen closely they will hear that cheering voice that will last while the ages roll, ''There they go; God bless them. Sincerely yours, ALBERT |. PETERSON
