V l ARTHUR J. OPLINGER High School Principal To THE CLASS OF 1958: Most of our living is confined to a rather small area. Beyond our family, our job, our community, our church, we seldom gog yet the challenge of the unsolved is always present. While I write this, the radio has just announced that the American Explorer has been successfully placed in an orbit around the earth. As you face the future, you can extend the horizons of your life, but it must be done one step at a time. Focus your eyes on the horizon of Wider opportunity and then with purpose proceed toward it. May all of you be successful in your purpose and helpful to those in your area of endeavor. Sincerely yours, A. J. OPLINGER l3l

MoNTFoRo E. Ii.i-1ci4 S11pf1'1'1ztf11df1zt Miawiiueizs or 'ruse Cmss or 1958: lfducation for all the people is America's noblest contribution to civilization. No man can leave a richer legacy to the world than a well-educated family. Character is molded in the process of education directed by your teachers, parents, and clergy. Character comes from endurance and fortitude. liscaping discipline and hard work has become one of the most common aims of mankind. Witlirntit discipline and work, men come to find that life consists of spurts and stops mainly stops because the superficial things that arouse their enthusiasm for a time soon collapse. Christian character flourishes not in the midst of ease and contentment, not in free- dom from pain, sorrow, and Worryg but in the thick of the battle of life. Wlieii the going becomes rough the character you have built in school, at church, and at home will serve you well. Any one of you with ordinary intelligence. who is morally sound, above board in his dealiiis, and not afraid of Work should succeed in spite of obstacles and handicaps. The possibilities before you are measured by the determination Within you. God grant that you may sense your responsibility to human kind and be worthy of the training you have received. Congratulations upon your graduation, and best wishes for your success. Respectfully yours, M. E. ILLICK l7l
