Broadman Vice Sec.-Treas. Hail to the Seniors! Another year is swiftly drawing to a close. just a few more weeks and you will file in a seemingly endless procession past the principal to receive your diplomas. After that your present relationship to the school will cease. Time marches on. This is one of the most memorable times of your lives. You have been look- ing forward to graduation. lt is but natural that you should have a sense of satisfaction now that you have reached the coveted goal. We rejoice with you and congratulate you most heartily. Nevertheless, we hope that there may be also a little sadness in your souls when you reminisce and think of bidding farewell to your teachers. After all, they have made the most worthwhile contribution to your development. They, as well as your parents, made sacrifices in order that you might receive a Christian education. We trust that you have sensed that Christian High was not just another school where one might gather factual information or acquire technical skills. lt is our prayer, young people, that you may not only have learned something about the Christian life, but that you also learned to lead the Christian life. Your parents, your teachers, the Board, and all the contribu- tors to the cause will feel richly repaid if the result of their work may be a generation that fears the Lord. Many eyes are upon you. The eyes of God, the eyes of Gods people, but also the eyes of the world. You are our epistle read of all men. The school will be judged by what you are and what you do. Be strong. Resist the evil. Fight for the right. God-speed to our Seniors! HERMAN BEL Page Eighf
