amwzam Once again, here as schoolmates assemble, We fain would lift our hearts in song, To our HighfSchool, our dear Alma Mater, Let gladness the moments prolong, We are proud of our lads and our lasses, Of honors won in days gone by, So here's a cheer for our old High School, For our old HighfSchool, Our dear Old High ! Here's to our Classes Here's to our lasses, Here's to the lads they adore, Here's to the Senior, so mighty, Junior so flighty, Freshy and Sophomore, Let mirth and gladness, Banish all sadness, And as the days go by, We promise you'll find us ready, earl Boosting for Millcreek High ! Soon for us will the school days be ended, The dreams of youth, that fade so fast, But we know that the heart oft will ponder, In mem'ry, o'er scenes that are past, There are joys that will long he remember'd, And friendships, too, that ne'er can die, Then here's a cheer for our old High School, Our dear Qld High ! iest and steady S !

JAMES S. WILSON Supervising Princzpal As a graduating class is about to leave Millcreek High School, I find myself wondering what the years have given you here beside book knowledge. Have they given you ideals that make you good followers of the right pattern of living? A recent article in the Post impressed upon educators the idea that society needs great leaders far less than it dces honest, intelligent, and courageous followers. Schools should stress this more. All of you could not be leaders while in school. But, while here you were given an equal opportunity in all activities, by voting for your leaders, participating in debate and class discussions, by engaging in the social and sports program of the school. This participation has developed in you ideals of responsibility, equality and cooperation, and the desire to follow those ideals as you take your place as citizens. As a good follower you will think freely, choosing carefully whom and what you follow, rejecting all isms which threaten the democratic pattern of living. You can help to keep this pattern intact by following your ideals of responsibility in exercising your right to vote, demanding leaders who reflect your ideals. You can help by reflecting your ideals of equality and co' operation, in demanding equal rights for all regardless of race or color. You can help by following your ideals of religion, forgetting creeds and remembering that without it all ideals are in vain. Congratulations to the Class of 1949. Choose well whom and what you will follow. I. S. Wilsoii MRS. RUTH BLAIR MRS. SHIRLEY KESTLE Hr-wwf Secretaries to the Principals 10
