FAIRHAVEN HIGH SCHOOL OFFICE OF THE PRINCIPAL To the Class of 1955: In Washington, D. C. the government maintains the National Bureau of Standards to provide a place where materials of all kinds can be given accurate and scientific tests. Scattered across our country there are countless private laboratories where manufacturers test the great variety of products that pour from our factories. The business man making and selling a product in competition with others is vitally concerned about quality control. He insists that today's product must be at least as good as yesterday's, and if, by applications of science and Yankee ingenuity it can be improved, it must be better. Through the years, home, school and community have been testing you. They have been interested to know what knowledge and skill you had acquired, how well you could work and play with others, what per- sistence you would show when tasks were hard, what ideals of conduct you would display, what ambition you had for the future, what apprecia- tion you had of your rights and responsibilities as a citizen. Now, as seniors, you hope that your tests and measurements will in- dicate that you are worthy of receiving a Fairhaven High School diploma. But the tests will not end with graduation from high school. You will be tested and judged as long as you live. Why not, therefore, set up your own personal quality control laboratory? Why not write down some definite standards of character and achievement and from time to time compare your accomplishment with the standards you have set up? The self-evaluation made possible by such a system will enable you to know whether or not you are maintaining the standards necessary for personal satisfaction and for worthy membership in home and community. My good wishes go with you all. Sincerely, CHESTER M. DOWNING, Principal.
