.X wif GREETINGS TO THE CLASS OF l957: lt is a pleasure to have this opportunity of extending a greeting to each of the l957 graduates. You have re- ceived your diploma, and I hope much happiness in life will follow. I am sure it will if you follow a few simple rules. First, you must get along with others. lf you be- come a griper, you not only upset your own happiness but the happiness of all those about you. Lincoln once said: There was something good that I could learn from the worst man l knew. Next, I would encourage you to develop good personal habits. By doing this you will en- ioy better health. Good health and real happiness go hand in hand. Next in your quest for real happiness you must have the proper relationship to God. People who are truly faithful to God are foreign to thoughts of personal glory or wealth gained at the expense of iniury to others. Their energies are focused upon purposes defined by their Lord. In conclusion I say to you, if you follow the Commandment, love thy neighbor, develop good habits, and have a close fellowship with God you will not only attain real happiness but will spread happiness wherever you are. FWS-. . fm., ,,,,.ff 1 ,fe- pg, You are now graduates of a fine school so l urge you to keep in touch with it and support its many activities. DAVID LICHLITER Supervising Principal OUR SECRETARIES Dorothy Wirbick and Janet Fetzer

'tv '--if With your graduation you will be leaving the doors of Forbes High School to enter upon a new, and in many respects, a different way of life. Some of you will be going on to college to continue preparation for your Iife's work, some of you will enter imme- diately into the industrial and agricultural life of our communities, and still others will enter the armed services of our country. But whatever you choose to do, I sincerely hope that you will avail yourselves of the boundless opportunities in this our complex and challenging world to make a better and happier life for yourselves. For surely like all others, you will be trying to find real happiness. ln your search for this happiness, the going will not always be smooth. At times you will be beset with struggles and disappointments. William N. Thomas shows us the way to achieve this happiness when he says: True happiness comes in giving. The greatest and perhaps the only perfect gift that we can give to the world, is the gift of ourselves at our best, and that means not iust the skill of our hands and the cunning of our brains, but our dreams, our finest resolutions, and most solemn promises to ourselves. l am sure that those of us whom you will be leaving here at Forbes will always be ready to do all in our power to help you achieve the happiness that you desire.
