I have received a deep satisfaction and enjoyment in seeing you grow physically, mentally, and culturally. We share with you your mixed emotions. Happy that you are graduating and life ' s beautiful adventure lies before you. Sad that you are leaving something beautiful behind. May the best come your way and may the blessings of peace, prosperity and happiness be yours, are the best wishes of your friend and Superintendent. L. C. Skelton It is with a feeling of great satisfaction that I reflect my thoughts to the past two years. Certainly the many successes and plaudits you have received as representatives of the R-Hl school district reflect the type of class that you have been. You have every right to a sincere personal pride in your school record and its related accomplishments. Whatever the future holds in store for the graduating class of 1960, I sincerely believe you will be able to meet its challenge. Good luck in the future and may God be with you always. A. E.
