OUR EXPERIENCES AS

Page 12 text:

We, the LAUREL WREATH staff and the Class of 1961, take this oppor- tunity to express our appreciation to a member of our faculty whom many of us have greatly appreciated. He has always been eager to listen to our problems and to give us answers which were founded on his faith in God ' s plans for our lives. Brother J. Irvin Lehman, it is to you, as a token of appreciation, that we dedicate this Laurel Wreath, and with it goes our wish for God ' s blessing upon your work in the future.

To the Seniors: We are standing at the gateway of life. Let us set wortliy goals and then press toward them. Let us not succumb to the stagnation of the age: to the complacent acceptance of mediocrity characteristic of our day. Let us move forward and upward not letting vigor of youth slip into the apathy of age with nothing accomplished. Let us not be satisfied to be passive observers of events and situations, but let us find our niches where we can contribute to the common good, can be useful influences for the right, and can lead a searching mankind into a kno vledge of God, remembering that greatness consists not in being served, but in serving. We have dedicated our abilities to God for His use wherever in His wisdom He may lead. For we have said, Lord, use our talents for Thy tasks. For the sake of honor, for the sake of the Avelfare of man, let us be true to that commitment. —Gerald Stoner, President.
