WE ARE ALL CAPABLE OF MORE THA WE DO MR ROBERT T. CI-IEATHAM T These words by Mary Baker Eddy symbolize the key to successful endeavor. The challenges of today are met with confidence when we realize the true heritage of our ability. Our American history is filled with events which aroused world thought. These events have brought at the same time a high expectency of responsibility for the correct utilization of freedom. Decisions of men, who right now share the present together, are based on past experiences and trust in the future. This trust cannot be broken by any supposed wedge of discouragement-discouragement which would condemn man erro- neously to incapability. By impersonalizing our accomplishments we clear the way for a fuller expression of our God-given talents and prove our limitless capability.

137 726164 M C6576 Years ot devotion to Berkeley Hall, the true education of hundreds of children, and to the cause of Christian Science is what Mr. Nelson gave us. Every person who was fortunate enough to have been associated with Mr. Nelson must in some way have benefitted by this man's great kindness, love and understanding. Mr. Nelson served Berkeley Hall for twenty-five years. During that time he con- tributed much-not only to the regular education of many children, but to the spiritual education ot these children, their parents, and the teachers of Berkeley Hall. What a pleasant way to start the day with a cheery good morning from Mr. Nelson as he opened car doors tor the primary grades! Who can ever forget those wonderful birthday spankings during those First, Second, and Third grades? Intermediate grades bring reminders ot Mr. Nelson calling for applause for the Halloween Party costumes or having lust one piece of chicken at our Play Day Picnic. Junior High School can remind us of the many times he patiently took our pictures at assemblies, Ninth Grade Tea, Fortnightlies, and many, many other times. Remember his auctioning at the Box Social, and the pleasant reminder of boys seat your partners at the Fortnightlies? When we express what Mr. Nelson worked so hard tor us to learn-that we are all God's children and by our spiritual growth we can express Him, then we remember him and the great service he rendered Berkeley Hall. EVER TO BE FORGOTTE MR. CHA UNCEY B. NELSON
