Dear Moms and Dads, This year we, the class of 1956, want to dedicate our yearbook to you parents who have always done so much for us. All through our lower grades and high school you have remained faithful to us. Your willing- ness to buy various items we sold, and your patience and concern in helping to solve all our big and little problems have meant more than words can express. Now as we are reaching the end of our last year in high school, we realize that you are still standing be- hind us, and we will endeavor to fulfill your hopes and dreams. We have decided to write our yearbook in a diary form to give you an opportunity to see what goes on behind the walls of M.H.S. It will give a day by day report from the time when we assume our re- sponsibilities as seniors. Feeling that you are interested in all our activi- ties, we would like to share this our Senior Diary with you.

Monday — It hardly seems possible that the time has arrived for us to take over our place as Seniors in M.H.S. A meeting of the yearbook staff is called, and, as work begins, we realize that the great re- sponsibility of writing and publishing our yearbook has fallen upon us. Our various staffs — editorial, business, art, and typing — are all endeavoring to work together to record memories of our Senior Year in writing and photographs.
