'lt DUB PRIHUPHL Elmer E. Shaw B. S. in Education, Ohio State University Bowling Green State University Heidelberg College University of Chicago History, Social Science, Math The commencement season is one of both gladness andsorrow for me. Gladness because it marks a triumph in the lives of you seniors. The fact that you are graduates is proof of having successfully completed all therequir- ments of Jackson-Liberty. lt is an hour of sadness because it means the end to four years of living together, sharing each others suc- cesses, comforting each other in our failures, and planning together your future. In that future of yours, we, your teachers, are tremendously interested, and ever ready to counsel with you. ' Remember J-L as your alma mater and remember that the latch string is always out. UUR SUPERIHTEHDEHT P. D. Cunnavan, B. S., M. S. in Education Oakland City College lndiana University History, Social Science, Biology Congratulations, Class of l947, upon your opportunity to produce the year book com- memorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of your high school. This book also marks the beginning of an- other period in the development of the educa- tional facilities of this community. ln May we shall know by a vote of the people if we are to enlarge our .plant and enrich our of- ferings to the student body or whether we shall seek a union with some other school dis- trict. One thing we know, we cannot long remain aswe are. I have a feeling that this year has been one of growth for the great majority of our students. May all the next years show pro- gress, too. - Hard work is a kind of Patriotism. Joy in life is the test of balanced living. it 1 . - -. i -- . - . .. l . Y , 11, if PM .-Mr v .7 .

Members of Boards of Education have the responsibility of providing adequate schoolropportuinity 'for 'the youth 'of their community. The people in their respective communities look to them for leadership and service in the development and main- tenance of the type of educational program which will best serve the community and its children. The responsibility placed upon a Board member is not light. Inasmuch as Educa- tion is a function of the state government, the local school board member is respon- sible to the state. Having been elected to his post by electors of the district, he is responsible to the people. Before assuming his du'tiesfih'e 'd'ffi'rms that. he will .support the Constitution of -the United States and the Constitution of the State of Ohio , that he will faithfully and impartially dis- charge his duties tothe best of his ability and in accordance with the laws in effect . The compensation received is very small when reckoned in monetary values. We are indeed fortunate to have men comprising our Board of .Education who are sincerely interested in the welfare of our children.
