Days are like identical suitcases; all the same size, but some people can pack more into them than others. As we look back through memory's haze to our golden days of youth we see: The golden leaves of fall flutter lightly to the ground and eager students come back to school and like doing it, because it is then that life is full of meaning and promise. The student opens his mind and heart and takes constructive aclion to reach goals and to make day dreams material- ize. The colorful days of autumn fade and the billowy-whiteness of winter becomes the follow- ing months. Students now have flurries of things to do and classrooms take on an air of business. But the grayness of winter ends with the freshness of spring, when everything is full of bloom, including each graduating student. These days take on a festive air and quicken the pulse with pleasure. Each graduate is awakened to the fact that the future is no longer a dreamy sometime world, but a reality that each one of them will soon encounter. In realizing this, each graduate becomes a more confident, independent, grown- up person. These golden years of life in school, are the days when knowledge overflows - each individ- ual may take and designate the size of his share. He has the golden opportunity of obtaining wis dom. He is far luckier than he then realizes. As he steps into the world after graduation he has to play up on this piece of luck - he must handle wisely each situation and responsibility, and it must serve him for the rest of his life.

To Mrs. Dorothy Lorenz and Mr. Merrill Pederson we look for help as our class advisors. They have encouraged the timid, inspired the in- different, and praised the brilliant. Genuine con- cern and sincere efforts, on their parts, have made a valuable contribution to the educational, social, and moral development of each and every one of us. The thriving Student Council under the direction of Mr. Pederson and the many success- ful class plays under the direction of Mrs. Lorenz scarcely begin to show the extent of their capa- bilities. For their patience, guidance, and faithful service to school and community, the senior class proudly dedicates to these two fine teachers, the 1959 CARDINAL.
