Ill? RAYMUND ll. MEADE UUR PRINCIPAL A school is not a thing of brick and mortar alone but is also composed of stu- dents, teachers -and employees. In a good schoolall must work together harmoni- ously. Bloom through the years has been fortunate in having had appreciative students, cooperative teachers and conscientious employees. The program of training in a school like Bloom should contribute to its stu- dents' intellectual, social, physical and moral development and broaden their outlook on life. You who are members of the Class of 1946 face a future filled with many challenges as well as many uncertainties. The extent of your opportunity to suc- ceed is limited only by your training, your health, your desire to achieve, and your willingness to accept responsibility. The future of America rests in the hands of you who constitute the rising gen- eration. Upon your shoulders will fall the duty and the privilege of upholding Freedom's torch. To you we of the passing generation are entrusting our most precious heritage - life, liberty and pursuit of happiness in a great democracy. May you enter upon t.his most sacred obligation- with courage, vision, and a pure heart! , A X K-K-RN YXN 40 N xx xxx XX

Lange Secretary BOARD UF EDUCATION The Bloom Board of Education represents a body of men who with Mr. Meade aim to carry on the machinery and aid in keeping up the standards of Bloom Township High School. Too often the efforts of the Board go unrecognized. Although their work is done behind the scenes, it is cl most important factor in the success and efficiency of an educational institution. W-illingly they give much of their time and energy to work faithfully in the interest of the community and students. In all their work the Board members have been supported whole-heartedly by the townspeople who have been most cooperative. For their efforts and accomplishments we students are grateful. f,,W,,. , .1-
