 If one of the purposes of education is to guide young people in developing appreciation and understanding of the complex world in which they live and participate, then the extent to which the schools succeed in accomplishing this purpose will determine in no small part the future of civilization. Even from a purely selfish standpoint, every individual is personally affected by the education afforded children. The schools de- termine, in no small measure, the character of the community in which the individual lives. Each man's welfare is thus dependent, to a large extent, upon the schooling given his neighbor's children. May we,—the school, the students, and the citizens of Bridger,—dedicate ourselves to pro- viding a better education for the pupils of to- day, THE CITIZENS OF TOMADD™-'

Sfio t4 n4 The intellect of the wise is like glass; it admits the light of heaven and reflects it. MRS. HOLZUM Train a child up the way he should go, and walk there yourself, once in a while. The class of '50 would like to express its ap- preciation to Mrs. Holzum for her direction and guidance in assisting us in the publication of this annual. Like the director of a symphony orches- tra, she has with patience and understanding, trained each section of the annual staff. Then as in an orchestra, when each section had mastered its score, she brought the entire ensemble to- gether in perfect harmony. MR. PERSON It is on the sound education of the people that the security and destiny of every nation chiefly rests. The seniors express their deepest thanks to their class sponsor, Mr. Person, for his support and understanding during the past year. His calm direction has been the magic baton which has toned down our raucous energy, so that our senior prom, class play and other extra curricular activities became noteworthy events. To Mr. Stanley J. Person, then, we express our gratitude.
