Dedication The graduating class of 1948, to show its appreciation for the constant guidance and helpful advice, wishes to dedicate this twenty-fourth edition of The Echoes to Mrs. Sarka, who has been with us for the last six years. She was one of the originators of the educational trips in our school. Mrs. Sarka not only teaches school and helps with many of its activities but also she is active in church and community work. Appreciation To our parents, we wish to express our sincere appreciation for their many sacrifices Wh1Ch have helped and provided for our education and pieasures during these school years. They are the founders of our home. Home--the place where we grum- ble the most and are treated the best, where we can eat, rest, and be our- selves. Our parents cheer us when we are blue encourage us when we are in doubt, will do anything for us, and give the love that makes our life com- plete. They teach us respect for the church and give us spiritual guidance. As our last lessons are recited to the Master. may the accomplishments of our lives prove that their sacrifices were not made in vain. 17
