From Mr. Sprague: Greetings to the Class of Nineteen Fifty-five! You have completed your work in the public schools. May we express our Congratulations to you and our Best Wishes for the years to come. A few days ago I was visiting a class. They were discussing the wealth of the United States. They were mentioning many vital assets—the soil, the rivers, the forests, the mills, etc. I suggested to them the health of the youth of the land. As the years go by I am more and more conscious of the fact that the greatest single asset in the wealth of the country is the health of its youth the mental, the moral, the physical, and the spiritual health. LYNN SPRAGUE. e c) From the Editors: Another year is drawing to a close and soon we, the seniors, will be at another milestone of life. We would like to wish each member of the senior class success in everything he undertakes. We, the editors, would like to thank the members of the senior class and Miss Sowry for their help in making this annual a success. Without their cooperation this annual would never have been possible. We sincerely hope you will enjoy reading the K-Lite as much as we have enjoyed putting it out. We also hope our future seniors will have as much pleasure in putting out their annual each year as we have had. RUTH and ART.

We, the graduating class of nineteen hundred and fifty-five, dedicate this seventh issue of the K-Lite to our beloved principal, Mr. Lynn Sprague. Mr. Sprague, pictured with his lovely wife, was born in Middleburg Township, Cuyahoga County, on October 12, 1893. He attended a one-room country school for 8 years, and finished high school at Berea. He attended Baldwin-Wallace College from which he received his A. B. Degree, and Ohio State University, where he received his M. A. Degree. He started teaching in 1912 in a one-room country school. He taught science at Ashtabula Harbor in the early twenties. For 24 years he worked in the Hubbard Schools. In 1959 he came to Kingsville as principal and science teacher. The senior class of ’55 will always remember him in our hearts as a beacon of guiding light.
