Every member of the Class of 1953 is familiar with Shakespeare's immortal statement in As You Like It that All the Worltl's a stage. Each one has played some of the parts. Other parts will follow. However, later on in his famous play Shakespeare wrote, 'lWhen my cue comes, call me, and l will answer. To be ready, to answer when the call comes, is one of the most important reasons for educational training. To play the part well, no matter what the assignment, should be the aim and ambition of each one. We feel assured that the members of the Class of '53 will continue, as they have in the past four years, to carry out their respective parts with credit to themselves, their parents, their school and community, and that wherever they find themselves in the years that lie ahead, they will he able to say, Wl1en my cue comes, call me and l will answer.

Education helps all of us to become interested in other things and other places. Education helps us to acquire the things we want and need. Education helps to give us a better background of training, a better understanding and a greater interest in things around us and in life in general. High school students are in the process of growing up, and I might add, growing up in very trying times. Wars and the aftermath of wars with their destruction of human life, wealth, and resources, inevitably leave their mark on all peoples. Wars with their accompanying destruction bring enumerable and challenging problems which will ultimately have to be solved by the youth of today. This is a challenge that must be met by you. Your high school education will help you to meet these challenges. Education signifies growth, both physical and mentalg and your growth has spread in many directions. You have grown in self-control and honestyg you know the difference between right and wrong. You have grown in your respect for proper authorityg you have grown in your con- sideration for others. You have learned proper mannerisms, and you have grown in your general behavior. Witli these growths comes a confidence that will carry you a long way in discharging your responsibilities to society and to help you to make the right kind of decisions in solving present and future problems. Good luck to all members of the class of 1953. A. G. Bostad
