IN NVITNESS WI-IEREOF, NVe, the senior class of 1953, have subscribed our names and fixed our seal the thirteenth day of May in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and fifty- three. Testator, Donna Sue Jones Principal, Troy E. Hirni Sponsors, Drusilla Krockenberger YVilliam Stevens Character Is The Cornerstone To Success lBy Russell McCann0n, Valedictorianl In the process of the construction of all material things there must be a foundationg a cornerstone upon which the base of the building must rest. And so it is in the construction of our lives: we must have a foundation from which to build and mold our lives into what can be termed Success, both in the eyes of others and of our Maker. I can think of nothing that better fulfills thc position as a Cornerstone upon which to base our lives than that of Character. Ive have spent the past twelve years develop- ing our Character so that the foundation upon which we build our lives might be strong enough to place upon it the weighty problems that we must face in our attempts to reach the outward goals of Success. But it is necessary that we pause here to pay tribute to our teachers, parents, and friends, who have helped us to advance thus far along the stepping stones of life. No doubt they often had misgivings as to the continuation of our advance- ment, but through their undying efforts, they have placed us in a position where we can direct our lives toward a goal which will best fulfill our ambitions. I The problems which we must face will be both huge and numerous, but through the proper con- struction of our lives we can face those problems with the vigor that will place us on top in every instance. 'With the passing of our coming graduation, we must each go into separate fieldsof livelihood. Some of us will become farmers, manufacturers, engineers, or teachersg yet others will join the armed forces and some of us will continue our education in some higher institution of learning. But no matter how diversified our interests are, I believe that we can find success if we will but heed the words of Maximilian Robespierre, No man can climb out beyond the limitations of his own character. And in remembering this quotation we must try to keep our character at a level that can be questioned by no one. The Builders By Peggy Tevis, Salutatorian Friends, parents, and teachers, we the gradu- ating class of nineteen hundred fifty-three, wish to welcome you to our Corner-stone laying. Tonight we are gathered here to lay the cor- ner-stone of character, the first stone in our build- ing of success. As the builders, we the graduation class have laid a firm foundation during the past twelve years on which to build. But as the builders could never accomplish anything without the work of the architect, engineers, and contractors, we could not have accomplished this without the aid of our parents, teachers, and friends. Perhaps we are best described by Longfellow in his poem, 'The Builders. All are architects of Fate WVorking in these walls of Time, Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. Nothing useless is, or lowg Each thing in its place is best: And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest. For the structure that we raise Time is with materials filled, Our todays and yesterdays Are the blocks with which we build. Again on behalf of the class of fifty-three, I would like to thank our teachers, parents, friends, and members of the school board who have con- tributed to the laying of our foundation and have made possible the laying of this corner-stone to- night. Isa!
