DEDICATION MR. EDWARD JOLING Mr. Joling is a faculty member who is well-known to every . graduating Senior. He ioined our faculty when we were Soph- omores in Hartford Christian, so it is with deep friendship that we dedicate our last and final memory to him. We have come to recognize him as an excellent instructor, a capable leader, a fine Christian example and a grand person to know. Thus, we, the Seniors sincerely dedicate our 'Torch' to you, Mr. Joling.

STEP BY STEP As thou goest, step by step, I will open up the way before thee, Prov. 4:12 F O R E W O R D Child of My love, fear not the unknown morrow, Dread not the new demand life makes of thee, Thy ignorance doth hold no cause for sorrow Since what thou knowest not is known to Me. Thou canst not see today the hidden meaning Of My command, but thou the light shall goin, Walk on in faith, upon My promise leaning, And as thou goest all shall be made plain. One step thou seest-then go forward boldly, One step is far enough for faith to see, Take that, and thy next duty shall be told thee. For step by step thy lord is leading thee. Stand not in fear thy adversaries counting, Dare every peril, save to disobey, Thou shalt march on, all obstacles surmounting, For l, the Strong, will open up the way. Wherefore go gladly to the task assigned thee, Having My promise, needing nothing more Than iust to know, where'er the future finds thee, In all thy iourneying l go before. Author unknown

An efficient principal and faculty maintaining order and discipline, having your welfare at heart. A board who desires to see that the fundamental principles of Christ are upheld. How we thank God for all of these and many more blessings. We say to you, Go forward young man, young woman. Remember all the good things you were taught in years past and your days in the future will be happy days with your Lord. May God bless each one of you, whatever your vocation in life may be, is our sincere prayer.
