14 S an ' To the Seniors You are now numbered among the alumni of Geneva High School. Perhaps as you look in retrospect to the years you spent in this institution, you will recall many pleasant associations and profitable hours spent together. As the years go by, those memory scenes will become more and more precious to behold. The passing years will reveal clearly and distinctly for you the importance of having taken full advantage of the many opportunities your school has afforded you, while you were privileged to be counted among her students. I feel that the most of you have sought, with varying degrees of diligence to be sure, to lay a solid foundation upon which to build your future lives. The progress that you make in future life, the successes you obtain, the good that you accomplish for yourself and your fellowmen will depend to a large degree on the habits and attitudes you have thus for formed. If your habits, attitudes, and methods of work point in the wrong direction, now is the time to make an ABOUT FACE. If the road you have been traveling leads upward, then increased per- severance, diligence, and initiative will help to carry you further along the route to success. Will you always remember that, The heights by great men reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flight, But they while their companions slept Were toiling upward in the night.

Mr. Ekern has a B.S. degree and attended South Dakota State College, University of Minnesota, and Kent State . . . Also having a tune to give her lessons by is Miss Virginia Forney who uses typewriters for her accompaniment. You can iust hear her soft voice over the din now telling one of her famous iokes. Miss Forney has a B.S. degree from Bowling Green State University . . . And there goes Miss Daugherty, on the run as usual, with a Talon in her hand in one of its stages. Besides keeping the Talon coming and putting on the Christmas Formal, Miss Daugherty even finds time for the girl's gym classes. She has a B.S. degree from Ashland College. 5 l.

AS The exactness, efficiency, and friendliness of Mrs. Cook, the office secretary, enables the school and the students to accomplish their work much quicker and easier. Around the school you can see the signs pointing to the presence of the maintenance men such as the sudden disappearance of a paper from the floor where you'd thrown it iust a while ago and many other little things which cause them a long day's work. In spite of this, they're always ready to help us and we appreciate it. P. Westlake, F. Trapp, E. Bartholomew, H. Conel
