Many centuries ago, in the times of ancient history, a tiny cone no larger than your fist, fell to the ground and began to rot. From it sprung a small sappling which started its struggle for survival in the huge forest. Year by year it grew, progressing from a weak sappling to a strong tree. It developed its limbs and bark so it would have much room for growth in the years to come. Fire and wind lashed at it, but only ten- ded to strengthen the mighty tree. Century by century it grew, every year adding another ring of strength to its circumference and another foot of growth to its stature, until it grew to be a tree of great renown. Far do men travel to behold the mighty Sequoia, which is greatest of all trees. Our school is like the tree. Human sacrifice was put into its birth. Even now, as our school is young and growing, it is being perfected and molded to make a firm foundation for future growth. Though the fire of falsehood and the cold wind of indifference are at it thrust, it continues to grow, for God is with us. Our school is like a tree-- yet it is far greater: it has a tremendous outreach. The students go out to many com- munities leaving a testimony. God forbid that people should behold our school, merely for its academic merits. Be it far from our goal. Rather, let this school be a center from which students go the world over, witnes- sing for the Savior. Our student organization has completed its second year of action. It has been a deciding factor in the outreach of our school. The projects which have been started, what ideas have been conceived, and the habits which we have formed as students determines the growth and the effect of our school in the future. We have added another annual ring of growth and strength to our school. Another foot of advancement is added to its stature. From where we leave off with our actions, we continue with our prayers. Where we leave off, others take up the task. May the student organization of this school in the years to come aid our school, not only in strengthening and building it up, but in furthering its outreach for God. U Loren Lind
