Jlai Recuenxlai Ad mi UA. tla liO i P'Uftci-p.al R. H. BREWER, PRINCIPAL MARY ELMA GARZA, SECRETARY The 1945 edition oi Los Recuerdos will always be remembered as the edition of the yearbook that was published at the turning point of World Wor II The signifi- cance of this fact cannot overlooked when one thinks of the many dif acuities that con- fronted those who were responsible for this book. The work of the sponsors, the stalf, and all others who made contributions de- serves the highest praise. The students and teachers in the art and printing departments deserve special ment.on for the excellent work done by them. The greatest pleasure that comes to me from my work is that which comes from working with people who know how and are willing to cooperate with others. The teachers and the students who have worked so diligently on our yearbook should be commended by all of us. So, in behalf of the faculty and student body I wish to ex- tend our sincere appreciation to all those who helped to make the 1945 edition of Los Recuerdos possible. We are proud of you and we are proud of our book. —R. H. BREWER

Particularly am I proud of the products which the school is turning out. Our boys and girls have made an enviable record and have distinguished themselves cn the battle fronts, as well as on the home front. Even to the casual observer, it is evident that Lanier school graduates are always ready and eager to do their share or as- sume their responsibility, This willingness to respond to an emer- gency is largely the result of the type of training received. A great deal of the credit rightfully belongs to the members of the faculty who have worked diligently and patiently to inspire these students to live unselfishly and abundantly. Students who have shown a disposition to cooperate with the faculty have been given skillful and sympathetic advice on how to solve the various problems of everyday life---edu- cational, vocational, moral, social, health, or problems related to their personal ad justment and welfare. Lanier School believes that a well- rounded education must take care of the spiritual and moral values as well as the academic or vocational skills. We make a conscious effort to teach that such traits of character as truthfulness, honesty, loyalty, and fair dealing must be practiced. It is quite a satisfaction to receive favor- aisle reports regarding the worthwhile con- tributions and splended achevements of our ex-students. To them, I wish to say that we appreciate their letters of confidence in the work we are doing. Here's wishing the best of luck to all our alumni and particularly to those who will shortly join that group of ex- Lanierites. F.L. TAFOLLA
