Class isforcy We, lhe class ol '57, have come lo lhe close ol our High School days: now we look back over lhe pasl four years. Slarling wilh our Freshman year, we enlered lhe halls of Lynden Chrisilan High a lillle uneasy because il was so dillerenl. The Mixer helped us gel acquainled. Our advisors. Mr. Bill Blake and Mr. Andrew De Jong. also helped us gel accuslomed lo high school. We fell more al ease when we relurned lo school as Sophomores. Our advisors lhis year were Miss Mar- ian Van Dyken and Mr. Bernard Engbers. We enioyedour class hile lo Sumas Mounlain. even if we did gel soaked in lhe rain. Our Junior year was a busy one. We chose our class rings a few weeks aller school slarled. We were very happy and proud lo gel our rings. even il some didn'l keep lheirs long. Anolher greal evenl during our Junior year was lhe Junior-Senior Banquel. We pul many hours of work into lhe Swiss selling. Auf Weidersehen. We hoped lhe Seniors were as delighled wilh lhe resulls as we were. Miss Marian Vander Ark and Mr. Norman De Boer were our advisors during our Junior year. We were very sorry lo have Mr. De Boer laken away from us. We will always remember him. lor all he has done lor us. and for everyone else. We lhen became Seniors: lhis was a very happy and busy year. We were proud ol lhe Seniors who won honors for us by parlicipaling in debale. speech conlesls. dramalics. choir. and many olher evenls. We will always remember lhe Junior-Senior Banquel. al which we ,were honored. guesls. Our Masquerade Parly and our Senior Skip Day are olher evenls vwe will nol lorgel. Miss Alice Terpslra and Mr. John Vander Veen were our class sponsors. Now lhal-we have looked over our pasl four years. we are ready lo look' ahead lo a new period in our lives. We lhank God for guiding and prolecling us lhus far in our lives, and may He walch over us as we each go our separale ways. As we are ready lo leave Lynden Chrislian High, we musl all say. Lead Me.
