Each member of this graduating class will always think of i955 as an important milestone in his life. This is as it should be since it signifies the culmination of basic nfeparatory years and the commencement of a larger, iuller life of greater responsibilities and realities. While in high school it was our task to provide those opportunities necessary for you to secure an education. Your graduation signifies that you have taken advan- tage of these opportunities. The degree to which you will have benefited can be told only by the manner in which you put your knowledge to use. It is our desire that the education obtained will not only be used for personal gain but for the welfare of all humanity. As you travel on the road of life improve society when- ever possible and when it cannot be changed learn to accept it as is. Set high goals, yet seek these through high moral and ethical practices and always with the help of Almighty God. My personal good wishes for success and happiness go with each of you. P. C. DUNKELBERGER, Supervising Principal 5-5-1 M-Sv' M-A For a long time you have looked forward to graduation from high school and now this time has arrived. It will be a great day in your lives. For many of you it will terminate your formal education, for others it is just the beginning of a broader and more specialized education and training. It is important that you set a goal and strive earnestly to attain it. Life is going to be a struggle. Learn to face your prob- lems and figure out ways of overcoming them. Do not whine and fret because the world owes you something better. Everyone cannot be wealthy or famous, but everyone can have a happy and satisfactory life. While you are plan- ning your life do not neglect to give it a good religious foundation. Learn to look at everything in its proper perspective. I trust that your high school education will have helped you to develop a strong character, a pleasing personal- ity, and good habits. l extend my sincere and best wishes to you, the class of 1955. L. MERLIN STAUFFER, Principal Ph.B., M.Ed.
