In Appreciation Wc, the class of 1966, observe the retirement of three fine teachers. Miss Marion Steurwald, Mr. Ralph Libby, and Dr. William Bettencourt. We are sure that the knowledge these individuals have shared with us will become a meaningful part of our background. “A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.” Henry Brooks Adams “B.H.S. graduates, you arc among the finest in v-v v v-America in health, in intelligence, and in economic opportunity. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching Latin to many of you. Since you have asked me for a message, I will tell you my earnest wish for you: that you •; may be worthy of your advantages. Nothing less than :. your best will do, morally and spiritually, as well as inv v:j:£:; the academic field. Be leaders in the right direction. It is easy to disregard advice from your elders. It takes real character to stand alone for right living among those of your own generation, but it brings great re-wards. Be honest, clean, and kind. The Bible can be your standard. And with all this, laugh frequently, most often at yourself. It is the best safety valve. God bless you all, and bring you through a troubled world with self-respect, with faith secure and courage

“It is very diflicult to sum up my whole career of teaching in a few words. There were moments of deep personal satisfaction and happiness, as well as times of disappointment. However. I do know that the students of Belmont High School are a fine group of people who will succeed in all their future endeavors. I leave the high school with mixed emotions. I cn-: joyed teaching very much. After my retirement. I look forward to devoting more time to my family.” ■ “Mottoes are sometimes considered pretty old fashioned, but they can make a point in brief which may be used as a point of departure in a conversation or discussion. Such is the motto which has hung on the wall of my classroom ever since I came to Belmont to teach many years ago: ‘Get your happiness out of your work or you will never know what happiness is : i I have always believed this and hope a little of this philosophy has rubbed off on my students.”'
