PN, K1 N 56 M Principal V 'W' 3, N' f if as ,,,, . -. If For you, Mr. Brumsted, we have reserved a special page in our book as well as in the memories of our school days. As the seasons varied, you did not, and your integrity and stalwartness gave us a deep feeling of security and confi- dence. Your kind and friendly guidance made all our days at H.C.S. very pleas- ant ones, and all our problems minute ones. Often we may have seemed ungrateful for your fine efforts, but this is not indicative of our true sentiments. we do appreciate at all times your keen judgement, your fairness in making decisions, and your conscientious planning to make our courses of study and extra-curricular program so satisfying. Your presence at all our activities assures us of your concern for us and your in- terest in our welfare. Your active participation in the alumni variety show made us realize that your interest in us continues even after we have left school. Also, your deep concern about community affairs shows us what a versatile personality you possess. May we express our appreciation for your philosophy of life. Your benig- nity towards us gives us the assurance that we may always visit with you in your office and that you will always take time for us. We can only say that we shall forever remain indebted to you. '54, H saga ,l L'7 HH,ae: .,... K ' ill X iii0'N'f ,fllaamff t , if 'WX 1 x , X

Rickettson Superintendent The Board of Education is a most important agency in our community because it conducts and controls the local system of public schools. The members of our Board were raised in rural communities and know the problems of rural areas. They are em- ployed in various fields bringing together all phases of the business world. The interest that our Board has in the students is clearly shown by our educa- tional advantages and facilities. Our fine school plant, which will be even better when the new addition is completed, our excellent pupil transportation system, our broad curricular and extra-curricular programs all testify to the foresightedness, good judgement, and unselfish service rendered by the members of the Board. These services are given without financial remuneration. The Board Members must spend time and energy and sacrifice their personal interests. Their only re- ward is the satisfaction they get from knowing they are rendering an invaluable service to the community. They are examples of true citizenry. Sincere gratitude if extended to you, Board Members, for your untiring efforts to make our school f yieasant and profitable as possible. h rnrnledge the services extended by Superintendent Buell. His expert and J J f cf inestimable value to the Board of Education. gi Q

Reading, writing and arithmetic must be taught each day but somehow the members of the faculty find time to give the boys and girls the rich experiences which can be gained only by actual participation. The publication of a class newspaper, the planning of a field trip, participation in an assembly program, decorating the classroom or a party to celebrate a holiday -- these are indicative of the opportunities which the grade students are given in addition to their more academic work. Through these ex- periences they grow in self-assurance, discover their interests, make friends, and their founda- tion for future living is developed. The students at H.C.S. are indeed fortunate to have a grade faculty composed of teachers who have a profound interest in them. They appreci- ate the sincere effort which the teachers must put forth to teach them the three HR'sU and in addition provide so many opportunities for ex- periences which they shall never forget.
