Principals Message The month of june in the year of 1945 will always be of major signi- ficance to each of you, for that is the month and year in which you completed the first step in preparing yourselves to assume the responsibility of community citizenship. The term Commencementv is frequently used at this particular time. I prefer this term rather than Graduation . I grant that you are being gradu- ated, but I like to feel that you are about to commence the great adventure of participating either in the society of the local community or in some insti- tution of higher learning. This opportunity will give you a chance to practice the principles that your teachers have presented to you during your twelve years of elementary and secondary school. You must participate in your new adventures to the fullest extent of your ability, but may I warn you that the compensation for this participation will not always be measured i.n terms of material wealth. The greatest reward that one can receive is to be recognized by his fellowmen as a highly respected citizen. This recognition comes only through conscientious and diligent ap- plication to the homely tasks of daily life. For six years we have been closely associated. Not infrequently during that time vou have confided to me your ideas, desires, and ambitions. It is my honest' hope that these plans materialize. To each of you I extend my pmrsonal wishes for a successful future. The faculty who have watched over and assisted you these past years wish you the best of luck. 1 hope you will continue an active association with your school and its affairs. HA1iol,n A.

The Yearbook Staff XVhen the first plans for the yearbook were discussed, the staff decided to try to make the book somewhat different from those of previous years. As we were fortunate to have among us many who were skilled in drawing and writing, it was just a matter of combining our best efforts to produce something which we hoped we could be proud of. Miss Newton, who was our adviser, spent many hours working with us. Because of present conditions we were not able to have either leather- bound books or the variety of snapshots that we wanted, but the addition of several pages of new features and cartoons more than made up for them. It was with a sigh of relief that our book was finally sent out to the printer, but we all agreed that working on it was lots of fun. pllglj -SCUCII O
