TO 'PHE lNlEMl3ERS OF THE CLASS OF 1940 PAGE Sanford High enjoys an enviable place among the high schools of our state due in great part to the forward looking citizens of our town, to the unselfish contribution of our teachers. and to the cooperation of our students, themselves. lt has been a place, not simply to gather, to recite lessons and to leave as soon as possible, but a place where real life lessons are learned-a live, pulsing community in itself. You will miss your school and it will in turn miss you, for you have spent four years as an important part of that community, contributing much toward making it a better place in which to live and work and learn. lt is my sincere hope that. after leaving, all of you will move steadily forward, continuing your education either formally or informally. I hope, too, that forti- fied by lessons of responsibility and dependability which you have learned in your school associations and activities, you will take your places as civic leaders or enlightened followers in the larger communities of which you will become a part. It would be wise always to keep in mind these words of Shakespeare- Men at some time are masters of their fatesg The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves, that we are underlingsf' LANVRENCE L.

WEEE IDNSTFAG HENRY R, PERRY I'l'HEl. E. PREsco'r'1' OUR VALIANT SCOUTS The success of our wagon train in making its journey across the wilderness of educa- tion is largely due to the able staff which supervised the trip, As we are about to disband, we would express our appreciation to each one for the part he played in getting us safely through the many danger spots enroute and in preparing us for our individual expeditions which we must soon undertake. The three able map-makers for our wagon train were Superintendent Robert McCarn, Principal Lawrence Page, and chief eouncilor, Henry Perry. NX'l1cnevcr we strayed from the designated route, Sub-master Ithel Prescott was always able to get us safely back by means of his blue admission slips. These leaders conveyed a definite confidence toward our success in the many deeds they performed. Serving as a general information bureau for the train and a clearing house of statistics on each of us travelers were Mrs. Morrow and Mrs. Sladen. Many a time our train would have been hopelessly mired but for the efficient and friendly services of these two secretaries. LAURA B. MORROXX' MURIEL W. SLADEN :tsl 5 iguuu C ll ll Il 25 Il U 1 L1 1
