Would it not have been for our parents, we could not have done this. They have toiled for us, en- coura ed us and given valuable advice to us. Now it is our turn to give to our parents. It is for them that We have taken time to take this brief journey through Lancaster Mennonite School. It IS to you parents, that We lovingly dedicate the 1956 LAUREL WREATH. -fr if N. -R P 3 QQ - -I ,- 'L..,g sal ' - 3-AJ? ' . - --' ': 5 , .vgt --A. !

Bible Dear Seniors, Graduates: Two things account for your having achieved the status of a graduate. They also account for the quality of your gradu ate standing as well as your future successes They are: your God-given endowments talents, opportunities and His continued mercies toward you on the one hand, and your own use and application of them on the other. God is good and God is faithful You can count on Him always, for He will not fail you. Herein lies the testing of our faith, at least in part. Another very important aspect of our faith in Him is our willingness to trust our future, and our plans for the future, entire- ly in His hands and to accept gladly, un- complainingly whatever disposal He makes of them. If you are willing and ready to have the Lord Jesus decide the place and manner of your service, i.e., anything, any- where, then you can be assured that your 14 , .,.,.Y. prayers lor guidance will always be an swered Also your life will count for more in the light of eternal values than ll possl bly could in any other way This ideal IS not unattainable It IS pos sible and I believe will be realized in a large measure by this graduating class I believe it because I believe in God and I also believe in you and your Christian faith I am confident that he which hath begun a good work 111 you will perform it until the day of esus Christ Phil 1 6 As you leave this school you will carry with you many memories the best of which under Gods gracious providence, will be the more easily and lovingly remem- bered. You will also carry with you our very best wishes and fervent prayers that as God shows you the path of life you will carefully walk in it, and find much joy and happiness in serving Him. . J NOAH G. Goon, Dean Route 4, Lancaster, Pa. Clzemistry, Physics, German, Senior Adviser You have passed another milestone in your life.

Richard Weaver, Vice-President: Alma WVert, Treasurer: Sara Marie Kauffman, Secretaryg Donald Sensenig, President Presidentfs Message We have come to the place in life where we must make important de- cisions and begin to face life on our own. We are confronted by many ques- tions and problems. One of the most important questions We face is, What shall I do with my life? In order to find the right answer, we must have a true sense of values. True joy and satisfaction in life are not found in self-gratihcation, but are only to be had in giving of that with which we are blessed to others for the Lord. We do not all have equal gifts, but we all have something to offer the Lord. Classmates, may we each meet this challenge, willing in whatever way we are able, to give our lives for service. -DONALD SENSENIG. 25 Parent Name Address ERLA MAE BECKER Mrs. Fannie Erb 109 South Queen Street Lancaster, Pa.

Class and Religious Activities Class and religious activities at Lancas- ter Mennonite School have come to a close for t-he Class of '56. We have great- ly enjoyed the fellowship, the activities, the gains in religious and secular knowl- edge, and above all, the more intimate relationship that we have with our Lord. We have now reached the final point of attainment here, that of graduation. We as students know that if a ship is to be brought safely into harbor, it needs a faithful and constant guide. In Brother Good, we have found these qualities and to him the 'Class of '56 says thanks for his faithfulness and willingness to share in and guide us through this school year. john Buckwalterg Noah G.

Waiting for the rest Class History Freshman Year Sixty-seven timid freshmen arrived at L.M.S. to register, September 9, 1952, and our high- school life began. After becoming acquainted with each other, we elected the following officers: President, Joseph Shenkg Vice-President, Homer Boll, Secretary, Naomi Beilerg and Treasurer, Doro- thy Shenk. Our fellows triumphantly won the annual tug of war on September 27. They felt rather proud of winning. Brother Clarence Lutz and J. Irvin Lehman were our evangelists. We soon learned how rnuch these revivals profit us. An interesting dialogue of The Courtship of Miles Standish was given at the Thanks- giving social. A high light of the year was the class outing. We enjoyed every minute of it until Orpha Stoltzfus broke her leg while playing a game. It had a sobering effect on a group of gay, lively freshmen, Sophomore Year We were back again with some old faces missing and new ones added. We now num- bered sixty-two. Do you remember the fun we had on hikes with Sister Good to collect wild flowers, and dissecting frogs and grasshoppers in biology lab? Discussions became very interesting when we could get Sister Good slightly off the subject, As our Christmas gift, the class gave money to Ralph Palmer and to our school tract band. Brother Moshier took our world history class to the Reading Museum. We saw a beautiful mummy, among many other things. Brother Roy Geigley and J. Irvin Lehman were our evangelists this year. Each year's re- vival meetings helped us to go deeper with the Lord. The class outing, the final tests, and school was over for another year. Junior Year We numbered sixty-one as we began our third year of high school. We had homeroom in the bookkeeping room this year and were all together. This year we began a student forum at L.M.S., and we elected four members from our class to serve in it. For Christmas we gave a program at the Oreville Old People's Home. We went carol- ing afterward. - As an American History project, we took a trip. We visited some of the interesting places such as Wheatland, New Holland Machine Company, Ephrata Cloisters, and several oth- er places. We attended the Mission Board Meeting at New Holland church one afternoon in the spring, One of our interesting experiences this year was preparing for the annual Junior-Senior outing. Senior Year This year found us back at L.M.S. as a group of seventy-three seniors. How those last three years have flown! Our elected class officers were: President, Donald Sensenigg Vice-President, Richard Weaver, Secretary, Sara Marie Kauffman, and Treasurer, Alma Jean Wert. We also elected Esther Jones as Laurel Wreath Editor, and an industrious staff to assist. During the fall revivals, we had a great out- pouring of the Spirit in our midst for which we praise God. We trust He will ever continue to lead in our lives. We greatly enjoyed our trip to Washington this past fall. At Christmas time we again experienced, by caroling and cheering others, that it is more blessed to give than to receive, May our lives always be for service. 55 mm wxz Q M 5, ,Q 'ww Kun, N Q, :,,5,,.Nd .

The Freshman Class This year seventy-eight of us entered the portals of L.M.S. for the first time. It Wasn't long before we heard friendly seniors discussing graduation dresses and diplomas. We were very happy for their presence and hate to see them leave, for they have had a great influence on us, and have helped us many times in our Christian lives. We are confident that they will follow their class motto, Our Lives for Service,',' and we trust that they will be a shining light in this dark World as they continue to serve Christ in their daily lives. 68 A, .fast ,lgilvfgi F :Sri 1 'a l- .! is-J ,fs axx fleft to rightj, First row-Betty Krady, Lois Weaver, Joyce Mills, Carol Stauffer, Marlene Stoltz- Ius, Catherine Yost, Joanna Mast, Sue Russell, Lois Wert.

If you should look for us each morning at 7:35, you would find us in our dormitory rooms. Doing what? Drawing nigh to God. It is here in the quiet atmosphere of morning watch that we find strength for the day ahead. In God's Word we find precious promises which fill each of our individual needs. Then, for just a moment, we kneel in silent, earnest prayer, and place ourselves and all our doings in our heavenly Father's care. We hear the 7 :45 bell ringing for early morning class. We leave our rooms with peace and joy in our hearts, and with assurance that God is with us each step of the way. -ALTA MAE ZIMMERMAN. tf'mi7QQ in 'mb 1 , . H '53-fm' . . sl , r ti, ,f,. .

Before us on the platform are seated nine students. You may ask, YVhy are there no faculty members? Because it is the students who participate in our Student Religious Program. The entire audience joins harmoniously in several songs. Following this, we are led in Bible reading and prayer by two students. This morning the main topic is Consistent Christian Living, divided into four subtopics: At Home, At School,', In the Community, and At Church. Each subtopic is well discussed by a student. In closing, we sing two songs. Brother Weaver makes several announcements and dismisses us. This gives you a glimpse into our Tuesday morning Student Religious Program. -ESTHER SAUDER. . ,T M-M.. ...T-FT, we-so . X Chapel Begin every day with God. Do you have a load of care and Worry? Come to chapel and find in Jesus one who will take all your burden. Do you ever feel discouraged, feel as though nobody understood you? Come along to morning worship and realize that jesus loves and understands. Have you arisen some bright, clear spring morning feeling that life is wonderful? Come to chapel and join in as we sing, Hark! ten thousand harps and voices sound the notes of praise above. -JOSEPH C. SHENK. Conjoint Prayer Circle Listen! Are they singing already? We must be late. As we ascend the steps to the girls' social room, beautiful four-part music Wafts its strains to our ears. This is Thursday evening, the time for joint prayer circle, when the boys and girls assemble once a week for a prayer and worship service together. Tonight a returned missionary will speak to us. Usually we have a visiting speaker or a faculty member to conduct the service. As We sit and worship together in the quietness of the evening, our hearts are drawn closer to our Creator and fellow men. -Lois BRUBAKER. CCNCLUDE THE DAY WITH GOD Evening Watch Nine-thirty. Quietness! A sudden hush has enveloped the dormitories. As we have started the day with God, it seems very fitting that we should close our day with Him also. Now that our minds are weary from much studying and thinking, this time serves as a period when we can remove ourselves from all other things and think with God. As the happenings and experiences of the day parade before us, this time can serve as a reviewing. We can now see the mistakes we made or could have made, and realize that we are still growing. The reading of God's Word clears and settles our minds so that we can spend the night in peaceful and undisturbed slumber. After communion with God in prayer, We come to the end of another day, and rest. -JOHN LUTZ. Q r I E 11 ,.,..--94 7 ig: V1 , wx 1.3 ,, xl NJ-R.

Chorale Singers Every Monday morning for the past school year, a group of upper- classmen and several faculty members met in the auditorium to sing God's praises. This was a select group of students who enjoyed singing the more difhcult of our hymns and anthems, and who enjoyed singing our old hymns correctly and with correct interpretation. Our leader and instructor, Sister Mumaw, pointed out our flaws, and helped us correct them. A climax to our practicing was the privilege of participating in school programs with the other school choruses. We also had the privilege of witnessing in our church institutions, such as Philhaven. We are all grateful to the school and our director for this opportunity of singing. It will surely be among our fond memories of the school. -M.

This is what we who sing in Ladies' Chorus have experienced when we all blend our voices in singing praises to our Maker. Through this chorus we have enjoyed singing together, and have received a spiritual blessing which cannot be forgotten or taken away. Our theme song, My Task, has proved to be a Well-chosen song. This has challenged our thinking and has made us realize what our tasks really are. To love someone more dearly every day, To help a wand'ring child to find his way, To ponder o'er a noble thought, and pray, And smile when evening falls, This is my task. -NAOMI BEILER. fleft to rightj, First row-Ray Geigley, Clair Mast, Donald Sensenig,VLawrence Umble, Elvin Stoltzius, Daniel Wert, Robert Wert, Alvin Zook, Wayne Miller.

Here a group of twenty-eight boys meet every week for practice. Broth- er Moshier, our director, is largely responsible for our success. As we sing together from week to week, we not only sing for pleasure, but We sing to praise and glorify His name. -VERNON MAST. .ve U fleft to rightj First row-Michael Mast, John Gerlach, Daniel Wert, john Buckwalter, Alton Good, Daniel Weng- er, james Shelly, Clair Smith.

Senior Chorus Is any merry? let him sing psalms Qames 5: 135. Who would dare to say that the Senior Chorus is not a group of merry young folk? The chorus is given an opportunity, each Tuesday afternoon, to release the overwhelming accumulation of merriment and gratitude to the Almighty in the form of song led by its leader, Sister Mumaw. The goal of the Senior Chorus, which is composed of members of the junior and senior classes, is not only to improve the quality and accuracy of our singing and to create a greater appreciation of better music, but also to praise and glorify the name of the Lord, our Maker, who has made all things most wonderful. May God richly bless the voice that is used only for His honor and His glory. 82 -DONALD MARTIN.

Chorus Singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord is our duty. We have found it to be a happy privilege also. This year the freshmen and sophomores assembled each Week for chorus practice under the direction of Brother Stoner. The main purpose of junior Chorus was to lay the foundation for later training in music. The basic rudiments were stressed and we were taught to sing accurately and correctly.. Many profitable and enjoyable times were spent in singing together from Life Songs No. 2. Not only did we learn new songs, but we also gained more appreciation for those songs we knew before. -FERN GRAYBILL. 83 my fleft to rightj Seated-Frances Kreider, Daniel Wert, Esther jones, Edward Kurtz, Clyde Horst.

Laurel Wreath Staff Dear Subscribers, As We were going about our round of duties here at L.M.S., we decided that you might Want to go to L.M.S. with us and share in our activities. So We added your interests to our schedule and started making a journal which would add some information to your interest. In the first section of the journal, you tour with us through the build- ings. You now see where We live during our time here. In the second sec- tion, you see and become acquainted with those men and Women who have dedicated their lives to teach us. We seniors who are going forward with our motto, Our Lives for Service, ever before us, are in the third section. Next come the underclassmen who are climbing the ladder, rung by rung, to graduation. Last you share with us our activities-things we learn and do besides our regular lessons. We sincerely hope that you have received through this tour some knowl- edge about the school and some enjoyment for having been here. -THE EDITORS. S lf1i.lfff55-F V.

Short Bible Term Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law. We came to Special Bible Term with a deep desire in our hearts, in anticipation of rich fellowship in the study of God's Word. After six weeks of Bible study under able instructors, we return to our various places of service with renewed zeal, better equipped to meet the needs of the world through the knowledge of the Word. Our prayer group, which met once a week, was a real blessing to each one ofus as we waited before the Lord. The group discussions and weekly addresses were very helpful and challenging, adding tothe precious truths we received in our daily classes. We praise the Lord for this opportunity of attending Special Bible Term. Truly our fellowship with Christ, the Word, and each other, has proved leaving our regular duties very worth while.
