This yearbook will be appreciated more and more as the years pass along for it is always a thrill to turn the pages of an old yearbook and relive those experiences that it brings to mind. It has been a pleasure to work with each and every student. I shall always cherish these years it has been my pleasure to work with you. To our graduating eighth graders, our best wishes will follow you always, and to the students remain- ing, let's all unite and combine our efforts in building a greater and better school. People judge our character by our actions, our speech, and our associates. Jesus, the greatest of all teachers, gave this pattern for our action when He said, Whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do even so to them. The wise man Solomon paints a beautiful picture for our speech, A word in due season is like apples of gold in a network of silver. Shakespeare has wisely stated, To thine own self be true and it must follow as the night the day, thou can'st not be false to any man. ” That each of you may reach whatever height you aspire to is my heartfelt desire.
