7704. Summa!! clawed fzacgha Seen running between the council room and her own small guidance office in 229 many times a week, is Mrs. Ruby Somerville. She could well be called one of Lincoln's busiest faculty members. Here is the job of advising the Student Council. She also guides officers of the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Classes. As problems arise each day to confront the council, a customary phrase to be heard is: Let's ask Mrs. Somerville for her help and opinion. The fact that she gives this assistance so willingly is one of the many reasons for her ever-increasing popularity among those who know and come into contact with her. AHL 2:4 1: R. Eddings.

ent aaemmemf RALPH EDD1Nos Student Body President Slaafeat burned! Zimczxea 'gang eafalz 1-icziudtiea Clirnaxing a busy year's activity for Lincoln's student council was the trial court established in April. One more important step had been taken in the student body's all-important march toward student government. Through exchanged visits with the Bremerton student council, where a student court has been successfully operating for some time, the group got the idea for a court at Lincoln. Other important ideas for the improvement of Abe student government were also acquired during the visits with Bremerton. It's your court, emphasised Ralph Eddings, student body president, it's up to you to develop it. Numerous assemblies were presented by the organization for other schools. Junior high schools were entertained and an attempt was made to acquaint them with Lincoln, One of the most important functions, of course, was the annual exchange assembly presented under the direction of Vice-president Jack Maddex. Any spare time that was available was consumed with various activities around school: the council dance, scholarship fund contribution, Mclean-up Week and many others. On behalf of the student council, commented Ralph on completing his reign as council president, HI want to thank Mrs. Somerville, our adviser, for her priceless assistance and enduring patience, to the faculty and administration and to the students, themselves, for their fine cooperation, It has been an honor and a pleasure serving you.

Vvfho makes the hit that brings the runner in. An old saying? Yes. but one that is very fitting when speaking of Lincoln's faculty. After completing three years of high school many students have left the familiar halls of Lincoln and have gone on either furthering their education in higher institutions of learning or entering at once into the business world. Many of these people have been very successful and have become outstanding in their chosen fields. Like a building which will crumble and fall if it stands on a Weak foundation. so would these individuals, if they had not had such fine cooperation, help, and instruction from their high school teachers, lt is at this time, while their characters and personalities are being molded and shaped from adolescence into adult ways of thinking and act- ing, that this guidance is vital. They receive little credit for their part in the lives of the thousands of students who come and go as the years pass by, Yet they realize it is their job as the teachers, to pass on to these young people as much as possible of the knowled e with which their 'ears of stud ' have endowed them. 3 l Y We, the students of Lincoln, thank you, the faculty, and take this opportunity to tell you we appreciate your kind help and the many acts of thoughtfulness and consideration you have Shown us during our years spent at Lincoln.
