Principal of the junior High School Supervising Principal Principal of the High School Dear Seniors: According to noted authorities, the entire process of education is merely adjustment. By adjustment is meant the ability to live and work together - in other words, cooperation-cooperation for betterment in any and every situation. I feel that you have achieved an important milestone in your education fadjustmentj by your cooperation in all situations this past year. Because you have taken such good care of the improvements that the Board of Education approved for the 1949-50 school term, many more improvements are to be instituted for the next term. YVe are gradually becoming one of the best equipped high schools in the valley-thanks to you.

To the Class of 1950: This year is the half-way mark of the Twentieth Century. We who have lived through the years of the first half have witnessed many changes in our way of livingg from the horse and buggy to jet propulsiong from sulphur and molasses to penicilling from the reaper's cradle to the huge combineg from individual handcrafts to long production lines. As transportation, science, agriculture, and industry have speeded up, so has the tempo of life increased. In little more than three centuries we have grown from a few pilgrims that landed on Plymouth Rock, to the greatest and most powerful nation on earth. This has been achieved through the con- cept that all men are created equal in a land of freedom where free enterprise presents an equal opportunity to allg where each of us may worship God in our own way. In spite of the great develop- ments of the past fifty years, the frontiers of progress have scarcely been penetrated. It is with the greatest confidence in the ability of the class of 1950 that we place in your hands the future of this nation. May the Divine Blessing of God continue to be with you and guide you to the highest pinnacle of success. E. H. Johnston President ol the Board of Education THE BOARD OF EDUCATION ALBERT P.
