Editorial The Niverville High School presents to you this third edition of its Yearbook. For the students, this publication may serve as a souvenir of the ’59-’60 school year. The yearbook is an attempt to set before your eyes the activities in work and play that make up a school year. Through pictures and write-ups we have tried to introduce to you the teachers and students, the work of the student council and of the various committees. Although the preparation of this yearbook has required a considerable amount of work, the experience has also been very enjoyable and beneficial and will be of value to us also in the future. We hope that you will enjoy reading this book as much as we have enjoyed preparing it for you. I would especially like to thank for their help and co-operation the staff adviser, Mr. Reimer; the members of the Yearbook Commit¬ tee; the solicitors for ads; the advertisers; and everyone who in any way has helped to make this yearbook a success. In closing I would like to wish the graduates the best of success and encourage the undergraduates and other students to continue their education. Be diligent in your work and use your time to the best advantage for in later years your school preparation will be of great value to you in you r chosen field of service. —Roselyn Hiebert, EDITOR Page 2

Inspector’s Message I would like to thank those responsible for editing this yearbook for the invitation to contribute a message. Also, because this is always a matter of great importance at this time of year, I want to wish all of the students of Niverville High School success in meeting the tests which determine the extent of achievement during the year. Right now you will be receiving much good advice about applying your energies towards passing your grades. Before you also there may be a considerable amount of guidance material that will help you in choosing a vocation suitable to your talents, and capable of providing you with a good living in the future. All of this is important. Ours is a complex world, with a confusing maze of paths along which we may suggest that you move. Those of us who are most concerned with preparing you for life have a responsibility, along with you, of seeing that the direction in which education leads you is a right one. We are prone, I think, because of our concern for your material success, to stress things material. We are prone, because ours tends to be a materialistic age, to stress things material— wealth, prestige, superficial pleasures. What we may not stress enough, I believe, is the solid fact that life’s real return to us is a measure, not of what we may get from it, but of what we give to it. Any superiority that our way of life has over ways of life that threaten it lies no longer in material things, if it ever did. It lies, rather, in moral nationhood, the product of Christian people. There is a great cry today for scientists who can help compete in the race for space, for engineers who can match the might of Soviet missiles, for every variety of educated person who can match or better the achievements made elsewhere in the world. True, we need these people; we need their contributions. But, above all, we need men and women, real men and women, with minds dedicated to right and justice and morality. Upon this depends our preservation. Will you be among them? K. R. Jasper Page 4
