ILUIRZJIRU As you are at the end of your high school education, you are called upon to make some of the most important decisions of your life. Your future depends largely upon the decisions that you make in the next few years. Some of you will, no doubt, go to college, while others of you will try to find a place for yourself in the world of business. You should not, in any sense, consider high school as the final step in your education. High School only prepares you for higher forms of learning, whether it be in the business or technical field. It enables you to use better judgement in your decisions, because it gives you more liberal views. The world hasn't much use for the so Called Hjack of all tradesn of old but specialization of the highest degree is demanded, and this can only be obtained by persuing in the annals of a higher form of education, a college, a univ- ersity, or perhaps a technical school. Either of these, has for its back-ground asound high school education, which enables you to under- stand the meaning of a highly specialized world, and propel you to the highest point possible for yourseffort. High School Ed- ucation is the threshold to your career, so build it well. Douglas Parker Seniors: 444444444 OUR APPRECIATION We, the Senior class of '38 wish to ex- press our appreciation to the faculty, board of education, principal, parents, chamber of commerce for the help they have given us during this past year. We want to thank those teachers that were substitutes for those members of the faculty that have been absent due to illness. Mrs. Harold Abrams and Mrs. Woodrow Call for Miss Gahagan, English teachers andldrs. George A. Van Arnam for Mrs. A. Melville. We hope that the class of '39 will have better luck in keeping their teachers in good health.. Seniors xsxvxxxxv ACTIVITIES OF THE FRENCH III CLASS OF 37-38 At the beginning of the year we talked of taking a trip to Montreal, Canada. To help us along our way, we decided to earn some money. At the Hollowe'en Party in the fall, we had a booth. Here we made our first few dollars. Later we sold candy and made quite a lot. Then to raise some more money we sold writing paper. If we don't raise enough money, we are going to divide it up among the class. we hope, though, by the time you read this we will have been to Montreal. Virginia Leete 444444444 Rays of Sunshine The greatest affair in life is the creation of character, and this can be accomplished as well in a cottage as in a palace. 444444444 The value of our success depends on our use of it. 444444444 If you want enemies, excel your friends, if you want friends, let your friends excel you. 444444444 Learn to say NO, and it will be of more use to you than to be able to read Latin. ' 444444444 When it begins to sprinkle, it is usually too late to begin to save up for a rainy day. 444444444 The clock that ticks the loudest dOeBn't always keep the best time. 444444444 Men spend their lives in anticipations, in determining to be vastly happy at some per- iod when they have time. But the present time has one advantage over every other-- it is our own. Past opportunities are gone, future are not come. We may lay in a stock of pleasures as we would lay in a stock of food, but if we defer the tasting of them too long, we shall find that both are soured of age. 444444444 The less we leave to chance, the more cer- tain success will be. 444444444 The wise man keeps ambition alive with hope for tomorrow, but he makes tomorrow's hope more promising by work done today. 444444444 Take time to work--it is the price of succms lake time to think--it is the sourse of power. Take time to read--it is the foundation of wisdom. 444444444 Every outstanding success is built on the ability to do better than good enough. 444444444 He has not learned the lesson of life who does not each day surmount a fear. 444444444 Five things are requisite to success-- ability, clean hands, dispatch, patience, and impartiality. 44444444444 Of all the things you wear, is the most important. The catch a glimpse of yourself window or a counter mirror, at your hat angle and check your expression next time you in a store skip the glancey up on the expression just below. Then decide if it isn't worth a little time and effort to ex- change that look of grim determination for something a little more appealing.
