They have made lxfe-long fnends of teachers and fellow-students. A friend as a Jewel that shxnes brightest m the darkness of mnsfortune The Semors have achxeved one goal ln lxfe and now as they start out to achneve others, we wxsh them-Success F MARION Ducxwau. What You Are To Be, You Are Now Becommg It does not take much strength to do thmgs, but xt requnres great strength to decide what to do I hope that twelve years of school has helped you to decide what you are going. to do and has given you the strength to accomplish your goal. Always remember God gave man five senses-touch, taste, sight, smell, and hearmg the succesful man has two more, horse and common. May the Umon Townshxp School class of 50 realize that they are now becoming men and women m a society that makes many demands. The best way to meet these demands is to do thoroughly every job every day Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work at hand. The suns rays do not burn untnl brought to a focus. I extend my very best wishes D RUSSELL!! Q and congratulations to every member of the class of '50. 4 , , 1
