3 Superintendent’s Message Many people spend their entire lives searching for lasting happiness. The popularly held belief that money brings happiness couldn’t be further from the truth. True happiness is not something that can be bought or gained through monetary or material possessions. Happiness is defined by Webster as “a state of joy with one’s life.” People who are truly happy are enjoying life one day at a time. They do not dwell on the past but protit from it. They prepare themselves for the future but do not live exclusively for it. Although happy people strive for daily improvement, they are basically contented with what they have and what they are. God has richly blessed each one of us who live in this great nation. Most people in other countries would give everything they have just to be able to enjoy the freedom and the prosperity that we experience daily. May God bless you as you live and enjoy the things that this life has to offer. Dr. Bobby Bain, Superintendent Foreword i In a highly technological world, it is extremely frustrating to pick up the telephone receiver and discover the phone is dead. Communication has been thwarted. Before learning can occur, there must be communication between the sender of knowledge and the intended receiver. How well we receive the message is revealed by the way we participate in academics, sports, friendships, and other relationships here at school. When we enrolled in school for the first time, we began our search for knowledge regarding this universe and all its exciting mysteries. Surrounded by all the modern methods of communication, such as the media, TV, radio, telephone, etc., there is no excuse for one to be misinformed or uneducated if he has his ears and eyes open to the truth. May we seek to cultivate an open line of communication. Never take it for granted. It turns the impossible into the possible, builds faith where there is doubt, and turns weaknesses into strength. In its truest form, com- munication is the key to success in life.

Purina Chows — Bulk FeedB 601 East Walnut Decatur, Texas SAVING TIPS on electric air conditioning Air conditioning provides lots of comfort during the summer months, but for many thousands of homeowners it is also the biggest factor in the cost of electricity On the average, air conditioning accounts for about half of summertime electric bills. Here are ways you can hold down the cost of air conditioning and still enjoy its comfort. Central Systems 1. Sot thermostat on 78‘, or higher, during the summer. Turn unit off if you'll be away from home several days. 2. Keep equipment at top operating efficiency. Have it checked seasonally by qualified serviceman. 3. Check filter ever 30 days. Dirty filters cause equipment to use excessive electricity. If filter is permanent, clean by manufacturer's directions; if it's disposable, it should be replaced when dirty. 4 Keep furniture, draoeries away from air outlets and returns Clean grills often. 5. Close draperies and blinds to keep out direct sunlight. 6 Keep fireplace damper closed 7. Proper home insulation keeps tne heat out, cuts energy use Insulation questions7 Call TP L. 8. Shade on roof and walls can reduce energy needed to cool. But trim trees, shrubs away from outside compressor unit Keep it free of leaves, debr s. If air flow is blocked, unit uses more energy. 9. Weatherstrip doors and windows; caulk cracks to prevent drafts and cool air loss. 10. Keep windows closed. Open oCjtside doors as little as possible. Window Units Follow above suggestions, plus these: 11. Buy units with highest energy efficiency ratio (EER). Uses less electricity to cool. If EER is not on sales tag, ask for it or figure it yourself. Divide wattage into BTU capacity. Both figures are on unit. 12. Place unit where il l get as little direct sun as possiple. 13. Aim air outlets at lower half of doorway to next room to allow warm air from tnat room to enter at the doortop for recooling, recirculation. 14. Never vent air conditioner into garage Ventilation is usually too poor for top performance of your unit. Conserve electricity and you help conserve one or more of the fuels needed to produce it Conserve fuels and you help assure that there will be enough to meet essential needs for electricity in the future. When you pass a TP L office, warehouse, generating plant or other facility, you 'll see that we've turned off all non-essential lighting And, in as many other ways as possible. TP L is reducing its own uses of electricity. If you would like additional information on conserving electricity, call the Customer Service Representative in the TP L Office.
