Parkland High School - Par Key Yearbook (Orefield, PA)

JFnrentnrit While the doors of Parkland will soon be closing behind us, let no one gain the impression we are leaving. We are just moving along into the greater tradition that is Parkland. Commencement is not the end, but the beginning of study and service in larger fields. Wherever we shall go, we shall take with us the golden memories that so long have dwelt within these walls. You, who follow us, will be faithful to the high educational purposes and the lofty spiritual ideals of the Pennsylvania Dutch, so emblematic in the theme of this book. Here our heritage, as in few other places, so promotes our responsibility. Ours, it is, to bring again the spirit of brotherhood into the life of an unfriendly world. To all our faithful teachers, by whose wise guidance and willing interest we have learned, beyond all else, something of the true art of living, we express our deep and sincere gratitude. We wish also to acknowledge our indebtedness to those many interested people, our advertisers, through whose generosity the payment for this publication was made possible. The editorial staff of the Par-Key especially desires to thank Mr. Randall to whose help and encouragement we owe so much. These pages of Par-Key, nineteen hundred and fifty-one, officially close the record of our academic life as members of this class. We have succeeded in what we have done only if those who follow shall have gained from it an inspiration to excel it. Higher and higher we shall lift the banners as we move along. Mary Louise Urffer Editor
