To the Class of ’49: I find it difficult to adequately express my feelings upon the departure of a graduating class. Many of the previous graduates return to school for a chat about what they are doing, their ambitions, their families and their classmates. I hope the forty-niners” will continue with these friendly visits. I shall miss seeing you but I shall not forget you. For each one of you, I wish the best of success in your chosen field. Service to others renders the highest form of happiness. Much has been given to you, and much will be expected from you. I wish for each of you a life of happy and useful service to your fellowmen, MABEL R. FARLEY, Principal.

To the Class of 1949: Your efforts have brought you successfully to another milestone along the highway of life. Now, with a high school education, it is important for you to find your place in life and determine as quickly as possible what you shall do. This is important because the man, with a purpose, is invincible and will succeed. Life can never defeat him and there is no failure for him who refuses to deter from his goal. Over 2,000 years ago that great thinker, Aristotle, made this state- ment: All men seek two things: success and happiness; we must first have a goal, an ideal, an objective, or a life plan; second, we must secure the knowledge and materials needed to work it out; and third, we must make wise use of what we have right where we are.” The roads of life have many detours. The most minute idea with a purpose has more potential power than the greatest talent undirected. Many people seem to live in a perpetual fog and spend their time running frcm one detour to another, never fulfilling a purpose. More failures come from lack of purpose than from lack of opportunities. So, may I urge you to know what you want want it badly enough — be willing to pay the price — and the opportunity will find you. My cordial and sincere best wishes to each of you. DR. E. H. LeBARRON, Superintendent.
