It is well that it works out this way, for as one grows and acquires experience, the most valuable learning one gets is through correction and redirection, as a result of mistakes. In modern teaching practice, we try to adjust our learning for real living situations so as to prepare the learner for cooperative and democratic living. In addition to this we try to teach applied ethical practices and religious principles in action. It is our duty in the operation of classes, activities, and wherever we can to exemplify the highest moral, ethical, and religious conceptions. It is only in this way that we can hope to achieve fair play, the respect for individual personality, the brotherhood of man, and integrity of character. We hope each year that we will improve in the achievement and fulfillment of these ideals in our schools. With these goals as our objectives, our teachers cannot help but grow and transmit this growth to the individual students in their charge. ducation must be accepted frankly as a process of preparing people for life situations and the school must be regarded as one .nstitution in the community that is dedicated to making intelli- gence count in life. The program of education today should aim to produce a generation of adults: loyal to their people, cooperative in habits, and vell-informed in economic, political and other problems, capable Jf maintaining happy and effective homes for their children, cap- ible of carrying on ther vocational activities, able to spend their eisure time profitably, sound in bodily health, mentally sound, and nterested in, and capable of, continuing to study all aspects of life ind culture. Henry W. Jones High School Principal john Duckstad Superintendent of Schools 60 fha 01725 602 6L 5 O fha ra 5 We, the class of 1949, humbly dedicate this 'annual to our parents. It is to them that we owe our opportunities of education, good homes and an equal chance to grow up as we have, to- gether, and to worship in our own choice. It is they who have encouraged us in our chosen pro- fessions, and helped us adjust to adult life. We hav,e reached the turning point-not the only one we'll face-but one of the most crucial ones. Today we are students, tomorrow-citizens. To some of us the future holds further learn- ing and to others a job and responsibility. It depends on us whether we succeed or fail but the ideals we have thus developed through our parents will give us re-enforcements. As we say a final farewell to our teachers, our school and our fellow students, we give this tribute to the moms and dads who have helped us leave our childhood to face the future as men and women.

DeWayne Olson, who is campaigning for mayor, is making a prolonged speech over station L.A.Z.Y. Harold Folkestad, the famous millionaire, had gone on a short trip in his 1849 convertible to inspect a new claim, be- lieved to be his richest.

Darrel's wife, the former Esther Schraw, was in the corridor await' ing developments. Carol johnson and Margaret Phefer, reporters for the Pantherville Press, were enroute to San Francisco where they will board a ship to the Orient. They have been sent by the paper's editor, Robert Stanford, to report on the possibilities of gold in China. james Mattson, inventor of kitchen gadgets, was in his workshop testing his latest invention, which is guaranteed to peel potatoes, mop floors, and wind clocks in one easy operation.
