Letter To The Reader As you page through this yearbook you may be wondering why the class of l95li chose the theme Time. The staff decided on this idea partly because of the format of the popular news maga zine of the same narrre, but mostly be cause they had read these words from the Bible. They are found in Ecclesiastes rl 0 '1 l-8 For everything there is a reason, and a time for every purpose under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die: a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is pl rnted a time to kill, and a time to heal: a time to break down, and a time to build up: a time to weep, and a time to laugh: a time to mourn, and a time to dance: a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing a time to seek, and a tinre to lose: a time to keep, and a time to cast away: a time to rend, and a tinre to sew: a tinre to keep silence, and a time to speak: a time to love, and a time to hate: a time for war, and a tinre for peace: 'l4Hli STAFF Index Foreword ............ . 3 Lower classes ......
