FOREWORD Within the confines of the following pages, we, the annual staff have endeavored to make this not merely another annual, but a book of memories .... a book that will call to mind and memory the many happy activities of school days at the Home of the Braves. lt is our hope that each of you will cherish and preserve this memory book so that in years to come you can re-live your high school days with a sense of pleasure and satisfaction. However, your annual staff could not have arrived at any degree of success without the guiding help of Miss Dorothy Schoknecht and Mr. Richard Nelson, whose efforts were untiring. ln closing l would like to leave a thought with each of you: seniors, as you go out into the world and underclassmen as you finish your high school career. l would like to quote from the works of Edgar Guest. Life is a gift that the humblest may boast of And one that the humlolest may well make the most of. Get out and live it each hour of the day, Wear it and use it as much as you may: Don't keep it in niches and corners and grooves, You'll find that in service its beauty improves.

KENNETH A. RAWSON, PRINCIPAL FLATHEAD COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL TO THE CLASS OF 1953 There are so rnany avenues of life open to all of us that it is easy, when the going gets tough iand it always doesl, to quitffand go another way. You have not quit in your struggle to obtain for yourself a high school diploma. Therefore to you l extend the heartiest of congratulations upon your present achievement. May it be only the first in many of lite's successes in store for you. You now have a good start in developing your ability to do things. However, it is only a start. Remember the world judges you and pays you not for what you decide to do but for what you actually do. Dreams don't count until they begin to work themselves into reality. Don't expect something lor nothing. Work for what you want. No amount of talent or no amount of influence will carry you very far unless you work. An accident may put you into a responsible position, but nothing but fitness and work will hold you there. May the best of liie be yours. Kenneth A. Rawson
