For the last word must be, to nany if not to all of us, Good bye! Tonight, we the class of 1939, appear before you to com- memorate the end of four years of High School life.

We have been very fortunate in rece1v1ng the advantages and privileges that we have here. And so we, mturally, feel very grateful to those who have nude it possible for us to come to th1s part1c ular school. We are especially happy to have a superintendent who beq- lieves that a rainy day only calls for a brighter smile-s superintendent to whom we can talk when problems seem too . N 0 emn occasion. ' .
