FAIRHAVEN HIGH SCHOOL OFFICE OF THE PRINCIPAL To the Class of 1959: You have chosen to use Greek mythology as the theme of your issue of the Huttlestonian. Our Bible tells us that God created man in his own image and that he loves man and wishes the best for him always. This is obviously a much loftier conception than that of the ancient Greeks who created gods in their own image, attributed to them traits both good and bad, and were never sure whether their gods would use their power to help or hurt mankind. Sometimes the people of this early day put us to shame in the matter of gratitude. When they believed a god had helped them they poured out before his altar their sweetest wine and burned upon his altar some of their choicest possessions. How often do we say a word of appreciation concerning those who have provided pleasant home life for us, those who have made our educa¬ tio n possible, or our God who has preserved us even to this day and placed us in this good land. The myths show people acting up to the best light they had, feeble though that light was. If we with our clearer understanding of God and his universe were to live up to the best ideals of conduct we know, the world would be a better place. As you go out to join the throng of F. H. S. graduates, use the educa¬ tion you have acquired here for your own good and for the good of others and remember to express your gratitude by your words and deeds. Sincerely, Chester M. Downing, Principal
