The School Board The school year is drawing to its close. The curtain is about to fall. A few more days and another large group of graduates will go forth from our halls into the world. Some of the students will go on to college, others will try to find their places in our much disturbed industrial order. To all our graduates we say: God-speed. lt is our hope and prayer that you may remember the lessons which you have been taught and that you may shape your lives so that others may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. We, the Board, the teachers, and the parents shall feel ourselves amply repaid if you become good citizens, first of all of the kingdom of Heaven and second, of our beloved country. We trust also that you will always be loyal supporters of the school which has done so much for you. Remember what sacrifices your parents had to make to send you to a Christian Institution. Do not forget at what a price your teachers tried to lead you through the most critical period of life. Be loyal to the school. Remember the words of Paul, You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men. A tree is judged by its fruit, a high school is judged by its graduates. lf you walk in God's way you are our best means of selling the institution to the public. lf you depart from Gods way, you are our greatest handicap. As a board, we had a successful year. We could labor uninterruptedly and there was the best of harmony between the board and the staff. We have high praise for the teachers who labored faithfully under financial handicap. We were able to reduce our indebtedness but we are sorry that we must add that we could not pay the teachers more than 6574, of their salaries. This must be changed and can be changed if we all work together. Parents, follow the example of the ladies who work in season and out of season. Attend the gen- eral meetings. Receive the financial agent gladly and do what you can. We can reach the goal if we all stand shoulder to shoulder. The cause is worth it. We cannot give our children anything better than a Christian education. . . . REV. HERMAN BEL. l9l
