School Board of District 0.12 Around the table are: Prank Lange, Bill Smith, Jack Dawson, Ruby Jackson, clerk: Chet Larson, chairman: Ike Nees. The school board and clerk are the people behind the scenes who make a school function properly. Sometimes their efforts are not appreciated when they are doing their best but in the long run they are appreciated. They try to keep the budget balanced and they select and hire faculty members. The group worked well together and did their best. They all deserve a big Thank You. The school board in action at one of their regular meetings

U r P T E H R 0 I M A s N c T u E N N N .Z f E N 5 3 T ' 5 A S A M G E 'When Wednesday evening, May 22, 1957 passes, the day at Rosebud High School will be only a memory for another Senior Class, the Class of 1957. Like many a class before them, this day seemed to be so far in the future! Yet, Now is the Hour, as the song goes. Only memories are left, memories of many things. The Freshman initiation in the fall of 1953, the proms, basketball games, trips and other good times will always be remembered whenever the classmates meet each other in the years to come. This day is significant for our underclassmen as well. For them, it is a reminder that, as each day passes, their high school days draw closer to an end. They must realize that preparation for this memorable day should begin on the first day of school in their Freshman year. Education and achievement are not rewards to be secured in a last minute rush to deliver. The last minute is here much sooner than we think. This lesson is most aptly expressed by an ancient Oriental poet: The Moving Finger writes: and, having writ, Moves on: nor all your Piety no Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a line Nor all your Tears wash out a word of it. --Omar Khayyam Superintendent

Girls' State Message I was very happy to hear that I was elected to attend Girls' State for the year of 1956 at Montana State College in Bozeman. It was an experience that I'll never forget. As soon as we all arrived, we were divided into two parties, four counties, and eight cities. We had regular meetings just like the real govern- ment so that we understood more of what it is really like. We had Parliamentary Procedure, religious meetings and assemblies everyday be- sides the governmental meetings and elections. On our last day there we had the Governor's Ball. Since the Honorable Governor Hugo Aronson was out of state, we had the honor of listening to Lieut. Governor Gosman give the speech at the Governor's Ball. I want to thank everyone that made it pos- sible for me to go. It was really wonderful to meet all of the girls and develop new friendships. Marcie Boys' State Message I was very lucky to be chosen to represent Rosebud High School as a delegate for the 1956 Boys' State Session held at the Western Montana College of Education located at Dillon, Montana. Up there was a program for the delegates that built both social and governmental goals for the boys to attain. As reinac ting actual govern- mental practices it set a challenge for us to conquer. I met new faces, enjoyed their company and learned how to get along with them socially. Lieut. Governor Gosman spoke to us as Governor Aronson was away at a convention. We had demonstrations from the FBI and the State Highway patrol. We had a caravan style trip to the town of Virginia City where we learned some of the beginning of the government of our great state of Montana. I learned how our government is run and also had a wonderful trip. In closing I want to thank those people who made this trip possible. Thank You WMM Myron l
