CONRAD H RUPPERT To the Members of the Senior Class: In the vernacular of the carnival, snatching the brass ring denotes a profitable and satisfactory achievement. This year the brass ring of all time is within your grasp as op- portunities exist today as never before. Opportunity pre- vails because of a great heritage of freedom, the way of life in America. In light of this freedom, every person should understand the responsibility that each individual has. This is particularly true today with so many forces threatening. Our obligation is that we must freely contribute in a worthwhile manner to our society if we are to partake of its freedom. Our ideals should be unselfish. These ideals should inspire willing service to our fellow-man, to our community and to our nation without thought of personal gain. With- out such beliefs, we court national danger. It was Lincoln who said, Should danger ever reach us, it must spring amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men, we must live through all time, or die by suicide. A whirl of gaiety usually accompanies a ride on the carousel but our freedom should not be thought of in the same manner. Our obligation, also, is to perpetuate our heritage. Sincerely, Conrad H. Ruppert

Harry Lyndon. board of education Education in America has traditionally remained a State function without Federal influence and with a mini- mum of Federal financial assistance. In New York State education has been compulsory for all children as estab- lished by the State Constitution and subsequent education laws. Local communities are represented in this educa- tional administrative structure by Boards of Education who are elected citizens serving their communities without re- muneration of any kind. Each community is allowed freedom of choice in mak- ing many decisions through their Boards of Education. These decisions determine the nature of that local educa- tion and are arrived at by studying the wishes and needs of the community. Through this means public education has remained one of the most significant gifts of free gov- ernment to civilization and has served as the cornerstone of successful self-government. Our Board of Education has chosen wisely for tomorrow by being concerned vitally with the education of all children today. The problem of overcrowded classrooms, the development of a proper cur- riculum and the provisions of an adequate teaching staff are some of the problems that all Boards of Education face today. In this respect the viewpoint of the Board of Edu- cation of the Morrisville-Eaton Central School has not been static. 112.-
