Principal Greetings Three years have passed leaving memories as oT a beauTiTuI musical number played on The sTrings oT youTh- Tul human inTeresTs. Progress in schoIasTic aTTainmenT has been The melody: Triendships, The harmony, and The Thrill OT ioyTul living, The rhyThm ThaT has sTirred To splendid eTTorT. The occasional diTTicuITy encounTered has been buT The dissonance which, when resolved, makes olrhei- parTs The sweeTer by conTrasT. I wish Tor each oT you ThaT The whole oT IiTe may be a symphony of happy experiences, numerous and IasTing Triendships, abounding heaITh, enough oT weaITh, and courage To engage in vigorous combaT when necessary. W. C. P. Ivleddins The highways OT IiTe are well- marked wiTh signs and direcTions To guide us along The iourney, so Ier us Think seriously which road will lead To The desired goal. There are guesTions ThaT each in- coming pupil may well asls himself as he begins his secondary Training: WhaT will be The resulT oT Three years spenT in Lincoln I-Iigh School? Will I be Tully prepared Tor whaT may TOI- low? Am I going To puT TorTh every eTTorT To Iearn all I can? Am I going To be a good ciTizen? Ivlay your IiTe ever be one oT hap- piness, heaITh and progress. B. O. Beal fe 0, Vice Principal 8
