I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the 1977 Cardinal Staff for the completion of a fine yearbook. As you thumb through the pages of this book in future years, I am certain each of you will pause to reminisce and have fond memories brought to mind. As you complete your high school career and go through the commencement ceremony, you mark the end of an important phase in your life. It is an occasion in which all who know you can share in your sense of pride and accomplishment. No one will have more pride in your accomplishment than the faculty and staff here at Woodland. Graduates and underclassmen, 1 challenge you to set goals in life and begin to make plans to achieve these goals. Commencement is not the end of your education; but only a phase in the continuous process of learning. Attaining these goals won’t be easy and you won’t do it by tearing down by negative thought or belittling. You can do it by hard work, humility, hope and faith in mankind. Try it! Q B.S.E. and M.S.E. Arkansas State Univ. Specialists Degree Univ. of Mo. Congratulations to the Cardinal Staff for another fine yearbook. May I extend my thanks to Mary Jane Graham, your editor, the entire Cardinal staff, and to Mr. Elfrink, your advisor. You are to be com- mended for all the hard work, care and anxiety it takes to complete a publication of this nature. Greetings also to the faculty, students and patrons of the Woodland School system. It has been a pleasure working with and for you the past two years. It is with deep regret our relationship as it now stands, must end. Surely as the sun will break over the hori- zon, life will go on. To all of you, especially the students, set yourselves high goals and work extremely hard to accomplish these goals. You can if you have the desire and determination. I dare you! There is an old saying, We become what we think about.” If you want to go a little further, We become what we think about all day long. Think about this! Anyone can be nothing. It takes a special person to really become someone. 7

In modern America it is a fact that all important decisions draw on information possessed by more than one person. These decisions draw on the specialized scientific and technical knowledge, the accumu- lated information and experience of many persons. It is imperative for the continued improvement of the democratic way of life that we learn to work effec- tively together. Individual talent must be brought to bear on the common purpose.
