PARENTS VISIT, THEN RETURN FOR CLASSES. Our parents had their usual opportunity this year during the American Education Week open House to attend our classes and visit with our teachers. Shown at the left are Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Warling, parents of Russell, leaving the bus which Russell takes to school every day. Their next stop was to obtain Russell's schedule of classes from Future Teacher Sharon Peterson and proceed on their way to class. (Left Center) Some liked school so well that they decided to take advantage of the Adult Education Courses offered during the year. One course offered was beginning golf, taught by Miss Joan Garvin. 1959 runnerup to the State Amateur golf champion. Miss Garvin is shown (Right Center) checking the grips of her students. Some parents also wanted to know more about mechanical drawing, so Mr. Wills is showing Peter Krause. Sr. just what is to be done while Richard Gay works out his own problem. (Bottom) 4

RESPONSIBILITY FOR SCHOOL POLICY Every pupil is his own most important teacher. He is the only one who knows what he really accepts and what he really thinks. Since you are your own most important teacher, try to do the best you can for yourself. Remember, life gives the final examinations--the ones that really count. And remember, you are often being examined when you have no idea of it. People are watching you. Life is the candid camera that does not wait for you to pose. Set your goal now. You can change later on but start out for some certain place--don't be just driving around. We have just opened the door into the limitless reaches of the universe and we can see just far enough ahead to know that man is at the threshold of a momentous area. Here is opportunity, challenge, adventure so tremen- dous as to exceed anything which gone before. With so many talented young men and women in this year's graduating class we can be sure that America will continue to be great in this limitless frontier because you will take up the challenge and be the wanted leaders of tomor- row-leaders who will have wisdom which knowledge and understanding may bring. It is my hope that at St. James we have helped you grow into the broadest, deepest, most vital person possible with a heightened insight that has made you see more clearly what the world is about, and how you can fit into it creatively and significantly and do your part to help create a better world. I shall miss you, but I am proud to call you my students. Sincerely, A. J. Cole, Superintendent Select objectives--thoughtfully. Choose your associates--wisely. Develop your attitudes--conscientiously. Plan to be something--wholeheartedly. With these goals in mind and having confidence in yourself, you will become a first rate citizen. Congratulations and best wishes. Richard Madson, Principal —
