Not only in her teaching of commercial sub- jects but also in her faithful services as Student Body Advisor and Annual sponsor. She has been and still is a vital part of Tonopah High School life. In appreciation and gratitude for her interest in our wel- fare, her support of our school, and her efforts toward making this Annual a success, we, the Annual Staff of 195'7,dedicate this Nuggett to our sponsor, MRS, LILLIAN RUMBAUGH, clminisfrafion MR.

May they believe in boys and girls, the men and women of a great tomorrow. Believe in the cure of ignorance, in the efficacy of school, in the dignity of teaching, and in the joy of serving another. Believe in wisdom as revealed in human lives as wellas in the pages of aprinted book, in lessons taught not so much by precept as by example. Believe in beauty in the schoolroom, in the daily life and out-of-doors, Believe in laughing, in all ideals and distant hopes that lure us on. Believe that every hour of every day we receive a just reward for all we do. Believe in the present and its opportunities, in the future and its promises, and in the divine joy of living. few N4 'QV MR. CHIMBIDIS MRS. RUMBAUGH MR.

STUDENT COUNCIL e During the past year the Student Council has grown stronger, undertaken more re- sponsibility, and continued in its original capacities unusually well. This body is the nucleus of every form of student affairs and school life, and the whole spirit of the school hinges on the leaders who serve on the Council. May the members keep always aware of their obligations and may the group as a whole continue to grow in stature and wisdom.
