The years spent at Luther South fill us with anxiety, anti- cipation, and awareness leading us to the threshold of maturity. During this period of our awkward growth, we- begin to formulate impressions of the world around us. In this world of our youth weget impressions ..... of our school . . . When we first approach Luther South, the cross at the main entrance impresses us as a symbol of the Christian faith. The school itself, which once im- pressed us as being built on a giant's scale, comes down to size after we fall into the routine of daily class work. We are impressed by the cleanliness of the hallways, classrooms, and cafeteria. At four o'clock when we look down the empty halls we feel a pride in the sense of belonging to the Christian student body at LHS. of our teachers . . . Formal introductions to the teachers and their academic and personal merits are made in the classroom. Their wisdom and knowledge impress us as being boundless. Later, as the months pass, we find them to be not only great examples of their profession, but also good friends and counselors. We are made aware of the interest each teacher has in us, as a class and also as individuals. The impressions we receive from their ideas and ideals act as guideposts on our road of life. of our classmates . . . Through the hustling halls, in the crowded cafeteria, and in the congregate classes, we form impressions of our friends. We watch all our friends, noticing those who mature and grow in stature, along with those whose personality seems unaffected by their education. The impressions we form of our classmates we use as guide lines for our own personal improvement. Clm'stz'anQy . . . Daily religion classes give us a foun- dation for our faith. Salvation through faith in Christ become more real to us through the study of His Word, daily chapel services, and private meditation. The calm of our small meditation and prayer chapel makes us aware that God is very near and eager to hear the suppli- cations of His saints. Our ability to formulate impressions is a human trait given to us by God, and therefore we must use this ability in a charitable and God pleasing manner. IMPRESSIGNS
