Those who come in daily contact with him have come to respect his patient pursuance of those ideals, those treasures, for which he is a crusader — high scholarship, high citizenship, and Chris- tian living. The seniors, though timid at leaving his protective guidance, are nevertheless confident that his protective influence will be with them in their hour of need. They are grateful for having had this opportunity to recognize his services before they say, Adieu. Eighteen

Although we feel that in his death we have sustained an irreparable loss, yet we are grateful for having had the oppor- tunity of coming within the sphere of his influence. Seventeen

For as the teachers are so will the youth be, and as the youth are so will be the future citizens of the town, state, and nation. The members of the senior class wish to express their appreciation for the unselfish services of their teachers — teachers who have been inspirational to their progress in the surmounting of those obstacles which are characteristic of the ever increasing complexities of modern civilization. Under the careful supervision of their teachers, the members of the senior class have been prepared to live in the future by being taught how to live in the present. They go forth to meet the future confident that their training in the past has been of such a nature that it will not desert them in their hour of need. Nineteen
