 bedicatian To the two most important guiding forces thus far in our lives . . . our parents and Everett High School . . . we dedicate this volume of memories. First, to our beloved parents because they have done everything in their power to contribute to the development of our lives; second, to our school, Everett High, which has made it possible for us to advance and prepare ourselves for the future. To both we are deeply indebted.

fyotewosvdl The yesterday that the world revealed to us is a thing of the past. We were as one—striving to advance, not knowing exactly what the outcome would be. We lived in a world of turmoil, war, and tear. We have lived in a period when many men, without question, did only as they were told. During that time we were educating and preparing ourselves lor that new world in the future, one of peace and prosperity. Now that new day dawns. Yesterday has shriveled into the past; tomorrow is an unopened bud that is tilled with new possibilities. The distant future is but a seed, just planted, of unknown quality. But even today v e are sure our preparation for that far-off tomorrow was not made in vain. We are to be the future generation. Let us take advantage of every possible opportunity.

MILLER C. HOOD, B. S., M, Ed. Indiana State Teachers College University of Pittsburgh Through the years we encounter obstacles both large and small. Large obstacles, strange as it may seem, seldom beat us down; more often, they act as a challenge, stimulating our minds and sharpening our faculties. It is the small obstacles of which we need to beware. Sometimes it seems to matter little to our present happiness whether we immediately conquer them or not. However, in neglecting to do so we build up a pattern of failure and soon form the habit of neglecting these minor obstacles which, in turn, overcome us. After you become alumni, you start over as beginners in life. Until the end of time there will be obstacles and the people who are successful in life will be those who have by constant effort developed a courage to surmount obstacles. I commend the class of 1950 for your school spirit and co-operation. May your success continue through future years. Quid Poltl America is still young, still vigorous, still flexible. Her people have weathered wars and depressions —and come out of them on their own feet, always moving ahead. It has been no accident that we have gained the highest living standards in the world—that we use half the world's telephones, three-fourths of the world's automobiles, half the world's radios, two-thirds of the world's crude oil and the best public school system in the world. Our forefathers intended it that way when they set up a political and economic system protecting a man's God-given Freedom. The greatest scientific discoveries are yet to be made. The greatest industries are still undeveloped. The greatest freedom lies in the future. Where de we go from here? That depends on us. I sincerely hope that each member of the class of 1950 will grasp and carry forward mankind's torch of freedom. D. RAYMOND MACK, B. S., M. Ed. Indiana State Teachers College University of Pittsburgh
