Because in retrospect we value and appreciate so many of the lessons she taught us. We, the class of 1965, dedicate our Northern Lights an- nual to and salute Mrs. Jenevie Lauffer. Superintendent Foreword To the Class of 1965 - We have labored together these past years in educational harmony. You now go forth to bring the benefits of your labors to mankind. Let the light of your knowledge lead others from the darkness of ignorance. May your guidance smooth the way so that others may fol- low with greater ease. Life holds many heartaches but also there is much happiness; no one has a mo nopoly on either. I sincerely hope that we, who have taught you, have given you the courage to face up to the heartaches and the wisdom to live in happiness. May God ' s richest blessings go with you in your graduation. Bruce G. Milne Supt. of Valier High School Sponsored by DR. D. D.
