OUR GIFT The only gift is a portion of thyself. Therefore the poet brings his poem, the shepherd, his lamb, the farmer, corn, the miner, a gem, the sailor, coral and shells, the painter, his picture, the girl, a handkerchief of her own sewing. This is right and pleasing, for it restores society in so far to its primary basis, when a manis biography is conveyed in his gift .... Ralph Waldo Emerson, Gifts With these words we present our finished product as our gift to you from eager typists, anxious editors, and concerned workers. We know it will grow morevaluable as the years pass, for every older person whom we asked has admitted to a use ofhis yearbookgreater then than his use of it when he was just graduated. He can identify his classmates as he unexpectedly sees them in various places and at various times. Sometimes he remembers a face but not a name, sometimes he remembers a name but not a face. But his reference book is always at hand, just waiting to yield its treasure of names or faces or events. The memories that our book will evoke as the years roll by will become more poignant. Our teachers and administrators and staff members will become more precious. And the class- mates with whom we have shared so much we shall cherish all of our lives. All of these will delight us anew as we retrace in these pages our three-year journey through Spingarn. Accept this gift of our hearts, our minds, and our spirit as we intend it to be, right and pleasing. The Staff of L'ESPRIT '67 Mrs. M.F. Hooper, Business Advisor Mrs. V.L.
