Mr. M. Arnold Daflin Mr. William E. Focht Mr. George H. Keller, Jr. Mr. E. Haydon Pereira Wo Aro liidolilod to Thom Year after year, from windy autumn, ro snowy winter, to lazy spring we have trudged to classes; we have done our work. From the preparation of these early years we have moved forward in the fields of mathematics, science, English, French, social studies, physical education, and vocational studies. During our final two years when our study has become more specialized and much more difficult, we have learned that all our work was part of a purposeful plan preparing us for a vocation, for college and for living our own lives after graduation. We learned more than facts and things. We learned a way of life. The faculty portrayed the gamut of opinions, feelings and philosophies. From this wide range of ways of living, we chose those that combined to make for each of us his philosophy—not those of one person but something from each. A school is as good as its faculty and a survey of the achievements of former Girardians establishes the value of our teachers. We are indebted to them for their devotion to our interests.

THE FACULTY and the LIBRARY STAFF of the DEPARTMENT of SECONDARY EDUCATION During our years at Girard we have sometimes failed to recognize and appreciate how much you, our teachers and housemasters, have given of yourselves to us, your students. Now that we are about to leave, we wish to tell you that all your work will find its place in our lives. We shall thank you with our deeds.
