A Message from the Chairman of the School Board THE WISDOM THAT IS FROM ABOVE IS PURE — The Bible In our modern world of today we meet up with many items which are no longer one hundred per cent pure in quality and texture. We have learned to accept many of these items in our every day living in place of the real products, because often substitutes are easier to obtain and not as hard on our pocket book. In our search for wisdom we must, however, never accept substitutes. As students no doubt we will often be tempted to make use of substitutes, and no doubt it will often be difficult to discern between pure wisdom and ar¬ tificial. The experienced student who has come in contact with both, the pure quality and the substitute, should have no difficulty in distinguishing between the two. We trust that the students in our school have been challenged to seek pure wisdom and that in their future quest for wisdom they will be guided by the taste they have developed for this true wisdom. On behalf of the Winkler School Board I wish to congratulate the Grad¬ uates on their achievement and wish you every success and God’s Blessing for your future. H. F. Wiebe Page 3

A Message From the Principal One might say that the character of the school is a reflection of the commu¬ nity in which it has developed. Like¬ wise the community is a reflection of the school. One stands in reciprocal re¬ lationship to the other. If there is to be social and cultural development, each must strive towards the improvements of the other. If the citizens of Winkler have pride in their school, it is a just pride. If the graduates of Winkler School are proud of their alma mater, it is a deserving one. Parents, school board members, teachers and students have worked together for years to establish a school with a standard of achievement which has become traditional. It has become my privilege to work in an institution which has grown to its pre¬ sent status through the efforts of dedi¬ cated men and women. Graduates and students — you ho¬ nour your school when you succeed in your studies, your extra-curricular ac¬ tivities, and later in your chosen work. This success is not to be measured first of all by what material gain you might achieve, but by what service you are to God and man. This success will be of eternal significance if you heed two words of the Master, “Follow me” John J. Bergen Page 5
