Superintendent Of the members of the graduating class, I hope it may be said that you have studied with a purpose and goal in mind. To the undergraduates it must be said, that to strive without a punpose or goal in mind is folly. Nothing has ever been accomplished by promiscuous endeavor. The senior class has chosen for its motto, Steadfast in the Pursuit of Knowledge. The motto would mean more if it were to read, Steadfast in the Pursuit of Knowledge for the Advancement of Mankind and our Civil- ization. If we do not have a purpose of this nature and we are alble to gain a great amount of knowledge which may be used to destroy instead of to build,'we and our civil- ization may be destroyed by our own folly. Through the study of the sciences, much knowledge has been acquired which may be used either to heal the physical body of man or may be used to destroy it. We are living in an age in which it is possible for an entire nation to be completely annihilated in the matter of a few hours. Therefore, it is im- perative that we learn as early as ,possible that the ultimate goal of each student should be study for the benefit and advancement of our fellow man. -7.- PAUI.

The School Board MR. RALPH MUTZFELD is president of the school board, of which he has been a very active member for the past ten years. In addition to his duties on the School board, Mr. Mutzfeld helps to manage a large hardware business. In his spare time he enjoys playing his cornet. And he is also quite a capable golfer. MR. C. J. MAXTON, another capable man, has served as secretary of the school board for the past six years. He owns and operates a local auto agency. When he is not busy in his office or on duty as secre- tary, he, like Mr. Mutzfeld, enjoys a game of golf. He is also one of the top bowlers in Butler. His vacations, however, are spent in hunting up North. DR. C. B. HATHAWAY takes time from the busy routine of curing peoples' ills to serve as treasurer of the school board. He has served in that capacity for the past six years. As a hobby he collects antiques, and is keenly interested in local history. He also spends many of his vacations hunting in the North. And he is one of our most faithful basketball fans. MRS. LOUISE SPAKE is the very ef- ficient clerk of the school board and serves in the same capacity in the school office. She has held that position for the past six years. She enjoys bowling and puts this exercise into practice weekly. -5-
