To the Class of 1953: The fundamental hopes of Man have not changed since the days when the Knights of old envisioned an ever brighter future. Man has always been a pioneer, forever going forth in search of a better world. Age after age he has pushed forward with the belief and hope that the future would be brighter than the past. All his heritage has been won by daring adventure into the unknown, and by a deep conviction of the val- ue of things to come. In search of truth and freedom he has endured all thingsg and to establish justice for himself and all mankind he has bravely lived and bravely died. With all his progress Man still looks for a happier world where equality shall be the fruit of brotherhood, and good will shall be the law of all nations. It is my fondest hope that the members of the Class of 1953 will embrace with eager hearts the privilege of lives dedicated to an ever better world. As you leave your Alma Mater, the best wishes of the Faculty go with you. ,p , 3 William F. .Tack . X Qi , .

To the Class of 1953 The old order changeth yielding place to ne ' and the age of chivalry and knightly combats is now only a colorful page in history and legend Yet ancient conflicts are always repeating them selves in new forms To grapple with problems arising from modern scientific advances, you may have to arm yourselves with more and more know ledge To secure the benefits of good citizenship in your community you may have to fight social IHJUS tice and greed Because the whole world IS presently engaged in a great struggle between the ideologies of democracy and of communism you may even be called upon to rescue the oppressed in other lands. Civilization never ceases to move forward because the youth of each generation bring to its problems a spirit of adventure and enthusiasm. I hope that Niagara Falls High School has helped to prepare you for the challenge of our times. My best wishes to each one of you. Beatrice Ballinger Vice-principal 9

To the Class of 1953: There was a time when graduation from high school was a fairly good preparation for life. Today, this is no longer true. The complexities of modern social and economic life requires not only education beyond high school either in school or while at work, but continuous learning throughout our lives. Therefore, as you approach your graduation day you should have some plan for further education. This may be in college or in some type of employ- ment that offers an opportunity for learning while working. You may be sure that the rewards of such a program will be Worthwhile. May I extend sincere congratulations and best wishes. William J.

I hope that you are con- sidering this just one phase of your whole program and that other steps to follow will be completed. Ed- ucation is a continuous program and should lead to a better and happier life. Life is much more compli- cated than in the era of Knighthoodg therefore it re- quires much more from each individual. Are you planning a successful program? James H. Erwin Deputy Superintendent Za
