MURIEL L. VARNUM D i 1: e C t 0 1: o Home Economics DCEIII of IW7O1'I1C11 In our daily concern with the material and tem- poral, we often lose sight of permanent values. We would do well to remind ourselves constantly of the many fine things that Farmington olfers us. Only as we feel and express gratitude for the opportunities that life here gives us, do we enrich and deepen our capacity for new experiences. In this my first year at Farmington State Teach- ers College, I feel grateful each day for the oppor- tunity of working with young people. It is such an experience that makes life challenging and brings a deep satisfaction that is the reward for those in the teaching profession. For you who are nearing your goal and will soon take your place in the ranks of one of the noblest professions of our times, it is my hope that you Find the same joy in working with your students and fellow teachers that has been mine at F. S. T. C. Then you can say with me, I am truly grateful I am a teacherf' MABEL I-IASTIE

Dean of Instruction The theme, Gratitude, has a truly great im- plication for future teachers. It points immediately to a positive outlook, to a seeking out and an aware- ness of those things that are right and good. A gen- eration of teachers with Gratitude U as a theme can work marvelous improvements in our society. For us who are working toward the goal of be- ing responsible teachers, the following quotation is pertinent: There are Two kinds of gratitude: the sudden kind We feel for what we take, the larger kind We feel for what we give. This implies that we must be aware of our needs, our goals, and of what situations we shall experience in our college life. Here at college, we should express our gratitude for what we takef' But most im- portant, as we search for truth, promotion of good will, and democratic behavior, will be the larger kind. Do you and I give freely of our time and experi- ences and feel that we have a great job to do as teach- ers in guiding American youth toward responsible behavior in our way of living? CLAYTON E.
