P. D. Cannavan, B. S., M. S. in Education Oakland City College Indiana University History, Social Science, Biology UUR PRIHGIPHL Seniors, twelve long years l have watched you grow, develop, and now you are to blos- som forth as a graduate of dear old Jack- son-Liberty. While you were with us, you were constantly writing a story, the outline of which is contained on one folder which shall be forever on file in the office of this institution, and the details of the story re- corded in the minds of those of us who were your fellow workers. That story is filled with deeds and actions, some of triumph, some of defeat, but none of which can ever be changed in the written story. So let's turn our back to the past and face the future. There are three great decisions you have made or will make. They are as follows: What shall I do with my God? Whom shall I choose to be my partner in life? What shall be my vocation? How well you answer these three questions will in a large mea- sure determine how successful will be the remaining chapters of your life .... Your principal wishes you much success .... Your Alma Mater stands ever ready to help you. l look to your future with high hopes. UUR SUPERIHTEHDEHT In looking over the past few months of activity in Jackson-Liberty Schools, l have a feeling that we have lived together in a spirit that is wholesome for us as individ- uals and as a cooperative group. However, I can see plenty of room for us to improve our scholarship and our social efficiency. When we have improved our physical plant and reorganized our courses to meet the needs of all, l shall call upon every pupil to dedicate his whole plan of life in the school and the community to the high- est service of his fellows. By fulfilling that commission each student will have found himself . . . found himself in all that is satisfying to him individually and to the en- richment of his school. Let us go forward! Elmer E.

No where in all the land does a boy or girl have the opportunity to gain a good education as does he in the United States of America. This did not just happen. The fight to gain our system of free education was a long one. First the tree elementary school, then the gram- mar school, followed by the high school, and this followed by the free state uni- versities. There had to be many cham- pions of the cause of education. That work is now being carried on in a large measure by our Boards of Educa- tion. If you want to find a community in which education is on the march, you search for a community where good men will serve on the Board of Education. Men who have the good of all the com- munity at heart. ln rendering decisions the good Board member considers all angles - the pupil - the parent - the teacher-the janitor-the bus driver- the administration-the taxpayer and then decides in the light of what is best for all. The one who is so willing to advise what is good for education in a community too often sees only one an- gle of the situation and forms his opinion accordingly. We at Jackson-Liberty are fortunate in that we have good men who are willing to be the guardians of our schools. ' Board Members: We appreciate your good work and wish you much happiness in carrying on your important obligation.
