To the Members of the June, 1952 Class: As tomorrow ' s teachers you have a great and shining future before you. Wealth of far more significant value than gold is to be yours, for you are promised the sincere devotion of girls and boys and the gratitude of everyone in the community interested in the welfare of our young people. Innumerable problems you will have to solve, but each one will serve as a challenge which successfully met will result In your personal growth and feeling of mastery over situations no matter how difficult. You are launching your careers at a most propitious moment, at a time when the status of the teaching profession is steadily progressing toward the high level of esteem which it merits. The American public is rapidly becoming fully cognizant of the true worth of the women and men who serve as guardians not only of the children in their charge but of the tradition that holds that the public school system is an indestructible force for the preservation of our democratic way of life and the principles underlying our American institutions. It is with this encouraging thought of the future that I express the hope that you may approach your work in the classroom with eager anticipation of the rewarding oppor- tunities and widening horizons that await those of you who accept the attendant responsibilities with courage, bringing to them good cheer, creative thought, knowl- edge, imagination, and that sympathy which makes you one with girls and boys seeking your counsel. To you all I extend warmest greetings and all good wishes for happiness and success in abundance. Sincerely yours, HEROLD C. HUNT General Superintendent of Schools

THEIR LEADERS Not everyone is born a leader, many more are followers. A good leader must know how to satisfy the needs of his followers. So a leader of children must understand the capabilities of his followers and help them to develop their potentialities as leaders.
