There is increasing evidence that education is a far more powerful instrument than most people have been willing to admit. The Fed- eral Government has recognized this fact and is trying to implement additional educational programs designed to raise the cultural as well as economic development of the American citizen. It is with this fact in mind that the Senior High School of Poplar Bluff, Missouri must continue to put forth its most concentrated efforts to meet the educational needs of the young people of our community. Superintendent of Schools May I suggest that you enjoy the most wonderful years of your life while you have the opportunity to do so. Your adaption into adulthood during these years is most trying. There must be sweat and tears, work and play, joy and sorrow in order for you to mature into moral, stable, honest, sincere young people. May I advise you to have some real good friends —most of these friends will be made up from your peers. However, it is well if you have some adult friends to guide and counsel with you. How much you have meant to me as your friend you probably will never really know. I wish for you the best that you can give life and life can give to you. Most sincerely. Assistant Superintendent 15
