DEDICA TION A sage . . . talking with his hands . . . it has bookness . . . trips to the elementary wing . . . ipso facto . . . no class without a chromium sphere . . . i.e. - all mean a distinguished and noteworthy gentleman who has devoted his life to teaching. He is a man respect- ed by both students and faculty for his intellectual prowess and his unique talent for provoking thought. Students eagerly await spending an hour or so in his class each day. No matter how puzzled one is over a German verb or a philosopher's theory, he is always willing to help. It is with admiration, gratitude, and affection that the Yearbook Staff dedi- cates the 1965 Milfordian to a teacher and friend . . . Mr. Raymond Palmer.

Since the public schools of Delaware are committed to serving all the children of all the people, it is a pleasure to report that the Milford School District has for the present reached the point of ample space with the occupancy of our new Junior High School Building on March 9,1964. Our parents and taxpayers are to be congratulated for supporting the physical needs of our pupils. Now that we have adequate buildings and scores of excellent faculty members it is sin- cerely hoped that our citizens will show their appreciation of our teachers by supporting them economically on a level at least commensurate with that in the school districts sur- rounding Milford. There is much to be done in our schools and teachers should be encour- aged wherever possible. All boys and girls must master reading, writing legibly, calculating, and many other skills and habits to the limit of their abilities, while many students must go on to new exper- iences and heights beyond our fondest dreams. All of this calls for courage and desire from both pupils and teachers. May we continue making progress in our public schools and contin- ually achieve a better tomorrow. It is a pleasure indeed to extend congratulations to the class of 1965 and the Yearbook Staff for publishing the Milfordian which will bring much appreciation and many occasions to reminisce as the years go by. I sincerely trust that each member of the Class of '65 will be able to look back and truthfully say that his days in the Milford Schools were among his hap- piest and most profitable from many points of view.
