The American people know that good education is essential to our Nation. Our schools are dedicated to help all youth acquire fundamental skills and to develop loyalties, habits, and attitudes needed by them to participate in the activities and responsibilities of citizenship. HARRY B. SUTTER Principal Students: Find for yourselves the many loose ends you have lost and use new days to tie them together again. FRANCIS W. DUFFIN Assistant Principal

 One ship sails east, another west. With the self-same winds that blow; 'Tis the set of the sails, and not the gales, That determines where they go. One of the fascinating miracles of nature is to see two sailboats gliding in opposite directions, impelled by the same breeze. It is also fascinating to observe two students, subjected to the same influences in the same high school, following diametrically different courses after graduation. Why is it that the same environmental breezes” impel them along such differing routes? What is the set of your sails? If your course so charted and your rudder so set that your voyage through life will be fruitful and productive, regardless of the gales that may blow? As the poet has pointed out, you can, in a large measure, determine your own destiny by the way you respond to the influences you meet every day. Happy voyage! CARL E. KLEIMOLA Superintendent
