EDITOR'S MESSAGE AND STAFF Since the beginning of time, our civilization has made noticeable advances in many fields. This progress is due mainly to the intelligence of man and the use he has made of his capabilities. Although man is born endowed with much native ability, the most important factor in his advancement has been the manner in which he developed and used his innate abilities. The training and broadening of one's mind is not an easy task. It requires a great deal of courage and determination in addition to guidance. The few years of our lives which are spent in school constitute a small sacrifice indeed when compared to the priceless education we receive in return. Today's world is so complex and standards so high that more and more knowledge and skills are needed to success- fully meet the challenge of even the smallest Jobs. Therefore, in order to be ready to take our place in this great society, a large amount of preparation is necessary. The issue of this preparation is, to a great extent, dependent upon ourselves. It is fortunate that there are so many trained and experienced people to help us. It is a very wise person indeed who avails himself of this guidance. In meeting today's problems, it is my opinion that one must think for himself, especially when decisions have to be made. Advice and guidance should not be disregarded, it is true, but one must be able to analyse and weigh this advice and then arrive at a final decision alone. Confidence in one's own Judgment, a worthwhile goal, and unrelenting effort to attain or even surpass this goal are , I feel, factors which contribute to success. Valuable members of the staff, without whose help there would have been no 1967 Pirates Log are as follows: Miss Marie McCarthy, Senior Class Editor. The Senior section, which includes the Senior Will, the Senior Prophecy, and the Senior Index of co-curricular and extra- curricular activities is, in great part, the result of many long hours of thinking, corralling and staging on the part of this talented Senior. Marie was indeed the work- horse of the staff. Miss McCarthy j,or . e secon(i year in succession, Norris Grigg has been Business Manager of the Pirates Log. His record sheets indicate that the 1966 edition showed a modest profit. The 1967 version of the Pirates Log, the largest ever produced, will, it appears, also pay for itself. The cost of producing a yearbook has been met from three major sources: advertising, subscribers, and the commission received from the handling of student individual phorographs. Also contributing to a greater or lesser degree were John LaDuc, Sports Editor, Kathy Weekes, Assistant Editor-in-chief, JoAnne Stevens, Literary Editor, James Scanlon, Photo Editor, Lucille Collier, Activities Editor, Carol Lancor, Underclassmen Editor, Suzanne Benson and Marcia Gonio, Assistant Senior Class Editors, Cindy Irish, Cheryl Scott, Rhonda Ray, Sandra Mantle. A contest was held, inviting students and faculty to submit designs for the cover. Unfortunately, the response was poor. The cover finally selected was created by Mr. LeBlanc, adviser to the Pirates Log since its first edition in 1954-. The division pages were also from the pen and scissors of Mr. LeBlanc. The staff intends to hold another such contest in 1967-68. The staff wishes to thank all those who helped it to produce the 1967 Pirates Log. As in all undertakings of this nature, there are many who materially contribute to its success without claiming recognition. Miss Karen Ripley Editor-in-chief

DEDICATION MRS. MARIAN HATHWAY It is with great pleasure that the faculty and staff of the 1967 Pirates Log dedicate this edition to Mrs. Marian Hathway, horn and educated in Harrisville. Although Mrs. Hathway retired in June of 1965, it has been our good fortune to have had her in our midst since her retirement as a regular substitute. After attending Potsdam State University Mrs. Hathway entered the teaching field in West Carthage in 1929« Shortly thereafter, she accepted a position in the Harrisville Central School system as a kindergarten- primary teacher. Her effectiveness as a teacher is legendary. Mrs. Hathway has served not only her school but her community. She is a past Matron of the Eastern Star, a past president of the Rural Letter Carrier Auxiliary, and a member of the Christian Church. Married in Harrisville, in 1952, to Mr. Leon Hathway, Mrs. Hathway has three children: David, District Park Supervisor for the state of Maryland, Don, a mechanical engineer for the Charles T. Main Consultant Engineers, and Philip, a Senior at Harrisville Central School. Mrs. Hathway delights in travel, music, and sewing. It is our fondest hope that you remain with us many more years.
