Superintendent y MR. THOMAS J. F LAHERTY B.Ed., M.Ed. Duquesne University, University of Pittsburgh In this world everything that marks an end, also marks a beginning. The end of one day is the commencement of anotherf So it is with.. our education. What you have learned at school, valuable as it is, is only the beginning. The end of high school work merely means the commencement of those experiences which will put to the test the principles you have learned. You have enjoyed that blessing which a benevolent community has bestowed upon her children-a free education. To you has been given freely that which great men of the past have obtained only with many sacrifices and much labor. May your hopes and dreams be realized as you begin the larger life which lies just beyond the threshold.

Board of Directors In every school district there is a committee-the Board of Education, elected by the people to plan for the educational needs of the community. This representative group is confronted with many problems- which concern the welfare of the pupil. The 1960-61 school year at Hurst -High School depicted in this Colophon is the result of the honest endeavors of these men. Their valid and reliable decisions have given them the satisfaction of knowing that they are responsible for having given the youth of our community a well- rounded education, essential for propagating the Democratic way of life. From all who have been affiliated with Hurst High School during this past year, we give our sincere gratitude to the Mt. Pleasant Township School Board.

Assistant -Superintendent MR. C. KENSEY DILLON A.B., West Virginia University M.Ed., University of Pittsburgh I would like to congratulate the seniors of Hurst High School upon their gradua- tion. For you, I hope the very best of everything in whatever venture you may find yourself. You must always remember that your graduation from high school is just the beginning, and you must continuously, in all areas, try for self improvement. May you consider this from Albert Camus: My role, I know is not to transform the world, nor man: for that I have not virtues enough, nor clearsightedness. But it consists, perhaps, in serving where I can, those few values without which a world, even transformed, is not worth living in, without which a man, even new, would be worthy of respect.
