Here's to the Class of 1940 E. B. BERGQUIST Superintendent .ai ,, MR. BERGQUIST Mr. Bergquist, our Superintendent, throughout the past years, has al- ways tried to keep our educational system modern. The many new policies which he has introduced into our school system has made it one of the best in the state. We, of the graduating class, wish to thank him for his untiring efforts in our behalf. The Rapid City Public High School is again saying goodbye and Godspeed to a group of over two hundred graduates. The school board and school faculty are natur- ally proud of their products and they as well as the parents hope the outside world will not be too much of a disillusionment. A company of' soldiers, only two hund1'ed strong, may be a very small part of a great army of citizens, but if every one of you has fully caught the infection of the social and literary serums with which you have been innoculated in our classrooms during the past three or four years, you could work miracles of better social conditions in our community and state. To the extent that your abilities and enthusiasms are directed toward service to others, you will profit in a coin that neither depreciates nor diminishes. Wliat a world is yours to work onl Youth, Shining Youth, is given us but once, and you now have that priceless possession to dispose of as you will. May you use it temperately and unselfishly. That you may realize to a generous degree these possibilities for usefulness and true happiness is the sincere Wish of E. B. BERCQUIST, Your Superintendent.
