f 1, S' yo X Diamonds are only chunks of coal That stuck to their jobs, you see: If they'd petered out, as most of us do, Where would the diamonds be? It isn't the fact of making a start, lt's the sticking that counts. I'll say It's the fellow that knows not the meaning of fall But hammers and hammers away. Whenever you think you've come to the end, And you're beaten as bad as can be, Remember that diamonds are chunks of coal, That stuck to their jobs, you see. ROBERT ED LEE Robert Ed Lee joinedthe faculty at Frank- ton High School inl930 and sincethat time had Frankton and the students in the school as his chief interest. In the fall of 1947, Mr. Lee assumed the role of principal, a position he held until the time of his passing, Sunday morning, December 21, 1958. Mr. Lee gave many long hours to his duties as principal. He was often found at work in the building in the wee hours of the morning. Truly the words of the poet who penned the lines above-he is a diamond. He stuck to his job. 4 7

TOWNSHIP BOARD OF EDUCATION The advisory board serves throughout the year as a council to the trustee. Their work is varied in nature and is invaluable to the trustee's office. Denver Mays, Dr. Fitzpatrick, and Charles Wells are pictured. Waldo Canaday first became trustee in the year 1942. He served fortwo four-year terms. Following this he was clerk for his wife, Millicent Canaday who served as trustee for two four-year terms. At spring ele ctio n time, the opposition did not put a c andidate into the field but gave full approval to Waldo as the p e r son for the job. Waldo Canaday began his third term as trustee of Pipecreek Town- ship in January of 1959. Millicent Canaday served the township well as trustee for eight years and it is with pride that we p r e s ent her here as clerk to the Trustee of Pipe- creek Township. 5 av. '?'
