W ' I - an fg .4- ' na-... s L Class DPOPIWQCQ Standing on the threshold of the future, we the class of 1951, lift our eyes to the uncertainties and realities of life. Many difficulties, disappointments await each of us as we approach the path of tomorrow. Because of the ideals, ambitions, courage, and dreams which we have acquired through our faithful, persevering teachers and Alma Mater, we approach the door to the future with hopes and resolutions of making this world a better and finer place in which to live. We, as a class, shall go into the world as messengers of peace, love, honesty, and hope. We shall hold these traits constantly before us as a pattern for democratic Christian living. We cannot prophesy the de stinies of each individual of this class, but we can ascertain that, with the knowledge and inspiration which we have gained here at Rock Ridge, we can expect success and happi- ness which await beyond the Door of Tomorrow.
