WE THA K YOU When a student's life in general seems out of tune, when teachers pile on the home- work, when a two o'clock assembly raises hopes for an early dismissal and those hopes prove to be ill-founded, when new rules seem senseless and the old ones impossible, upon whose shoulders is placed the blame? He who assumes the Herculean responsibility of serving as a high school principal seemingly must accept, along with the myriad iobs that are naturally a part of the office, that extra burden that we students, unthinkingly, add. On the days when we see things clearly, then we are aware of the daily impor- tance, in our lives, of the man who is never too busy to hear our problems, to give us his good counsel, and to encourage us with his kind and warm smile. The busiest man we probably will ever know is our superintendent. To be responsible for a school plant as large as ours is no insignificant iob. Problems multiply when many diverse groups have interests in the welfare of an organization. We feel very fortunate to have a man who sees the needs of our school and does something about them promptly and efficiently. As students we do not find his office as familiar as that of our principal, but we are conscious of a sense of security in knowing that the superintendent's office claims this genial and friendly person as its occupant. As our youthful thoughtlessness begins to fade and an awareness of value and quality begins to develop, we realize the need to express our honest gratitude to these two men. May the dedication of the 1958 Timberlane serve as a long-merited thank-you to our principal, W. V. Langen, who for years has helped us on our way to better citizenship, and to our superintendent, W. J. Murphy, who has made it possible for us to attend the very best of schools. 5 . 1 i S

Because of their forethought and fore- sight, because of their diligent planning and careful managing, we students have had the opportunities to enioy the best of educational facilities. Increasing enrollment necessitates an enlarged plant. A new grade school and junior college will be built to meet this need. These schools will provide more of the outstanding educa- tional opportunities which make better citizens ot us all, A hearty thank you is due this small group of citizens, all of whom give of their time sa Treasurer CLIFFORD BIRD Oliver Iron Mining Comp any, Oflice r ,.....-- 'CI Qlv Board member CLINTON TORFIN Insurance salesman, Prudential In sura nce Company. - it I fl 1? .L .
