MR. DAVOREN AND MISS DILLON, his secretary, were just about to commence their new duties when this picture was taken. To Mr. Davoren, our superintendent of schools, we extend our sincere congratula- tions and best wishes. That beautiful bouquet of spring flowers was presented by the H. S. Teachers' Club. MR. DAVOREN SENDS HIS GREETINGS: May success shine upon each and every member of the class of 1947. May the teachings and counsel you have received during your Public School education fortify you in the complex responsibility which you are about to assume as citizens of our great freedom-loving and democratic country. May the Class of 1947 enjoy a full share of the multitudinous blessings and oppor- tunities existing in our land today and in days to come.

On behalf of the members of the Milford School Committee I am pleased to extend to the Class of 1947 of the Milford High School this message of greeting, congratulations, and good wishes for the future. Each year there are thousands of young men and women graduated from the high schools of our country. Many of them will leave their Alma Maters with well-formu- lated plans for the years ahead. Many of them will not have arrived at a definite voca- tional or educational decision. These situations are to be expected. It is our sincere wish and hope, however, that the twelve years that you have invested in your education, particu- larly that the last four, have been soundly invested and that the dividends that you will re- ceive in succeeding years will help you to attain durable satisfaction throughout your life. We hope also that your four years at Milford High School have impressed upon you the fact that to solve the problems of life successfully,' you must be ready and able to meet them. You must be the possessor of asterling character, one that will reflect credit and honor upon yourselves, your school, your family, and to society at large. You will find, as one season rolls into another, that you will get as much out of life as you give to it. Do what you do, honestly and well 3 give what you give, cheerfully and unselfishly. Do your best at all times, in the fall, the winter, the spring, and the summer. Carry these thoughts with you in all seasons of the year. Our good wishes for your success go along with them. ffffaaca 14. Bcugauni, 4. Cfmjrmmz of the Srfmol Committee

OUR NEW PRINCIPAL, MR. TOSCHES, SAYS: It is a pleasure for me to extend my congratulations to the Class of 1947. As each one of you enters into your chosen line of endeavor, it is my sincere wish that your attendance at the Milford High School will have proved invaluable in the attainment of success, and that you will cherish dearly the happy memories associated with your high school days. rw 1. vm THE SMILING OFFICE WORKERS pose here with Miss Florence Fertitta, Mr. Tosches' friendly and efficient secretary. They courteously wrote out our absent and tardy slips, and, oh yes, capably assigned to us those A-6 sessions, which we no doubt deserved. Oli wonders where the young Russo lad was when the picture was taken. He was always so helpful and willing that we shall give him at least a word-picture here. Yes, these office workers surely did help Florence out in this, her lfirst year. Flo succeeded Mrs. The- resa fDel Castelloj Visconti, of wlzom we were also very fond.
