»« 4i£ A. B. Gelwick, A. M. Superintendent The aim of our present day public schools is to prepare the student for life with a definite conception of leadership, and to give specific and fundamental training for the several professions. Since the public school is the most democratic of all institutions, the work of the Falls City High School is directed to the development of the student’s mental powers and it aims to give him his bearings in the universe of nature and in the world of men. I congratulate the Class of 1930 upon the successful completion of their high school work. May succeeding years bring you success in your chosen fields of labor. Sincerely yours, A. B. Gelwick. A. W. Starkebacm A. B.. Principal To the Class of 1930: Commencement returns with the regularity of the seasons. Though the graduating class changes from year to year, yet in the larger things of life each class is the same. In the profound depths, die hopes and ideals of youth are ever the same. Some of you will go to higher learning; I wish you a fruitful college To those of you who will pursue other activity, I wish you continued success. Sincerely yours, A. W.

University of Nebraska French The best thing we have received from our High School course is an acquaintance with the lives, purposes, and achievements of many of the great men of history. This acquaintance could have been secured outside the walls of any institution in so far as facts are concerned but the knowledge is small in comparison with the spirit of the instruction, for almost without exception, every member of the faculty is an inspiring teacher and able to impart his inspiration to the class. In short, the most valuable thing we have derived is an inspiration to make ourselves worth while and for this we are indebted to the quality of our teachers. Page Ten
