Klr. Benson who spent much time and ellort in planning and furnishing lX'illiam Chrisman. Di- vision I, well realizes that the new building with its thirty-two doors open is a svmhol of the many opportunities ofliered to each one who enters for the purpose of enriching his experiences. Those who are content with meager successes may End too late that through carelessness the door has closed to their opportunities. Therefore, as the door swings open. each must realize its values and hold on to its key of success. Mr. Lefeverls philosophy concerning doors of op- portunity is. This year we opened new doors into a wonderful new building. To many of us directs our path this was a new and most satisfying experience. It gave us a stimulus to greater achievement and a fresh viewpoint on many problems, as viewed in more spacious and pleasant surroundings. HA building, however Fine. does not guarantee a School in the true sense ot' the word. nor does it insure the best educative processes. The door that opens to these concepts is not made of wood and glass, but of intaneilmles. suelt as vision, intelligent Curiosity and judgement of values. May we have all the concern amd appreciation for the care and use of the building we occupy and also may we make it the means to an end-a place to learn. to excltanee ideas and live in a happy group situaitionfl 1 , Lu Ann Gardner Atlrndrznrc Secretary 6 If if f Y' , 'V W , flat -tix' Y if L l!? 7. , .we Q I Joseph F.
