ike Seniors OU are about to gradu- ate from Beaverhead County High School. As one of your sponsors, I hope that you will always look back upon your school days spent here with pleasant mem- ories, as time well spent for your preparation for life, as a citizen of a community, state and nation. We worked together, played together, and had our problems to “iron- out” and solve. We live in a great country, and have a government of which you are a part. We have an abundance of natural resources, and in the nation as a whole, a high standard of living. But with all this, we have our problems. Production is still a problem, but not as great a prob- lem as our ability to use all the products made by machinery run at its maximum capacity. The problem of world peace is still unsolved. Traffic- accidents are still too high. Crime and juvenile delinquency are still problems, and many others. We have had great problems in the past, we have them now, and doubtless will have them in the future. For those of you that wish to continue your formal education, we have a great number of educational institutions. There you can obtain the kind of education and training of your own choosing, to help you in your task of solving your problem, and in making a living. Upon you and others like you depends the future progress that we may have, and a more abundant life. To all of you, frankly and sincerely, not just as a teacher, but as a citizen and neighbor of your community, I wish you the best—of good luck, happiness, and living that our country can obtain. Assistant Principal.

I L ll Success to the (3la ss of V9 N a world of tumult, concerned by the horror of what tomorrow may bring to civilization, it is of healthy impact to observe that human- ity goes on planning with a faith and a hope undaunted- This hope and this faith lies in our educational system. Our educational program is committed to the principle that all children are entitled to receive an equitable education regardless of social or economic status. Today’s educational program is also committed to the principle of making education a continuous process, rather than a few short years. Every citizen has a right to expect that the schools will do certain things for the youth of the community. We, as citizens, face a common destiny. Therefore, it becomes our common duty to prepare for this common des- tiny. The only medium through which this can be done is the public school. Education seeks to prepare people to recognize the age-old problems of humanity and to supply the key to the solution of our economic and social problems. Education seeks to keep alive within the individual the courage to believe in the future and meet it with confidence. May success be yours throughout the coming years. Principal.
