FOREWORD . . Time flows rapidly onward, and in its wake follow the lives of our many friends and classmates, only too soon to become a part of the irrevoc- able past. Thus, in the pages which follow, we have attempted to record some of the more pleasant and intrinsic phases of school life, in order that our readers may re-live those golden experiences of their school days. In our portrayal of school life, we have employed the theme of “Jour- ney westward,” conceiving of the classes as part of a covered wagon train, moving across the “prairies of life” to a land of promise and opportunity. We hope that this theme has enhanced our treatment of life in the Ran- chester Public Schools, and that it will add to your enjoyment of this year- book.

ROBERT F. STRAIT We, the students of Ranchester High School, take great pride in dedi- cating this 1951 RUSTLER to Robert F. Strait, a pioneer who knew Ran- chester long before the luxuries of life in the early days became the necessities of our modern civilization. Born near the Kansas-Missouri border on March 15, 1877, Mr. Strait journeyed west, and while en route to Yellowstone Park, he became em- ployed at the McShane tie-camp, where he was to undergo one of the most dramatic experiences of his life, that of surviving the hazards of the Rock- wood forest fire. In 1913 Mr. Strait married Edith Carter and lived on Five-Mile Flat until 1924, when he and his wife moved to Ranchester. Still a resident of Ranchester, Mr. Strait is the father of four children, all of whom are grad- uates of Ranchester High School. It is indeed with pleasure that we dedicate this yearbook to a man whose knowledge of life in the early days around Ranchester was gained through actual experience.
