WHITEFEATHER Page Eleven STAFF OF THE SCI-IOOL'S SUCCESS Not to save, but to spend wisely. It is necessary in any business to spend money. ln the school it is a very difficult job to tell just how much to spend. ln business you can tell at the end of the year whether you have made money or lost money, but in the school it is hard to tell whether the added equipment has improved the quality of the students who graduate, thereby worthy of the money spent for it. When the board put in a commercial course, they spent much money for typewriters and other equipment. They were not sure the course would be worth the money spent, but we know that it has helped to improve the qualities of the students. The Senior Class at this time wish to express their appreciation to the Board of Education for all the equipment and improvements they have made to make their school life more enjoyable and more worth while. Standing: William Steveley, William Werst, Ralph Walthers, Clerk. Seated: Dorwin Brookhart, Lewis Bowersock, President, Frank Wheeler, Vice Pres.

Page Tin WI-IITEFEATHER TO THE SENIORS The making of this annual has been an accomplishment for which you should be justly proud. This project has brought you in contact with real life experiences, many of which will be beneficial to you in the future. For twelve years you have earnestly striven for what some people are still prone to call an education. They believe that the more an individual attends school the more educated he is, the more degrees he can attach to his name, the more educated he becomes, To your credit you have a whole array of marks and credits which you can present as evidence of your ability to do certain things expected of an educated man or woman. You have learned to repeat many definitions, translate foreign languages, work problems in algebra, and a whole array of other skills, and yet, how many of you can meet the modern demands of education. You do not live in an academic world alone. You live in a social, physical, ethical, moral, civic, emotional and spiritual world as well as a mental. Without training in each of these you would be as incomplete as an airplane without wings. Your school, home and church has striven to train you in each of these necessary qualities, but it does not actually follow that these agencies of training have been successful. The school does not definitely insure you development ofa complete education. After leaving school you will pass through numerous phases of experiences, many for which you will no doubt be unprepared. You will find that scholastic attainment while ranking high in importance for success is only one step toward becoming educated. Education is something that never ceases. It is something we must continually strive to perfect. Try as we may, we will come to the end of our life still without perfection, but the nearer we reach this perfection the more successful our life on this earth will be. Mr. Lynch.

Seemingly insignificant, but in reality they are very important to our school. They transport the majority of the school body to and from school, twice each day. They have also been used as a means of transportation on various occasions, such as basketball games. The buses together with their drivers, have done their daily task well and faithfully. Five buses were in use this year. Although a few minor repairs have been necessary, no seriousness has resulted. We were all very proud of the new bus purchased last year, but used for the first time this year. This bus was driven by Mr. Lloyd Bruner and carried a total number of 55 passengers. Another new bus has been purchased, but will not be used until next year. This bus will replace the Reo driven by Mr. Lester Bowersock.
