GXS TATTLER qXD THEME PIONEERS OF TODAY VER three hundred years ago the devout Pilgrim fathers embarked from Plymouth, England and with undaunted faith and courage sailed forth to the vast unknown. Like Ulysses of old, their motive was to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield ” Under the guidance of the Great Revealer of Truth they sought their goal religious freedom. Protected by His tender vigilance they crossed the ocean and landed on bleak and barren shores. Tneirs was to settle a wilderness and found a nation for their posterity. The vision of the future was ever present in the minds of the sturdy pioneers. They never lost sight of moral right and truth and the reward of a zealous pursuit of them, the principles for wnich they left their homeland. By deeds of piety and purity, the founders of our nation ever kept before them a vision of the Great Beyond. Almost twelve years ago, we, the Seniors of '34, launched on a journey over strange seas. Our motive was to bend our twigs so that we mignt reap forests of knowledge. Under the patient training of the faculty we started our voyage on unknown waters. Ours was to acquire mental development, to lay a foundation for our future. Four years ago at the beginning of the last circuit of our itinerary, we chose as our motto More Beyond. We have striven, as ever before, to be aware of the presence and guidance of the Great Teacher. Our foundation has been laid. Our next task will be to build, upon our foundation, stepping-stones to success. In a very short time, we, diploma in hand, shall be leaving this school, this, our foster-mother for twelve years. Like our sturdy ancestors we shall be leaving friends and scenes dear to us. But we shall always recall fond memories. As a token of our appreciation of the twelve happy years spent within these walls, we leave this year-book May you glean many happy moments from these pages. May you in your life be able to catch a gleam of the More Beyond. And now as we Seniors spend a few more happy hours here, and then set forth to learn in the School of Life, may we always keep before us a vision of the More Beyond. May we always remember that he is happiest who serves his fellow-men best. May we ever be worthy of the name, Pioneers of Today. Alma Belle Stoner, Editor
