Our teachers and pastor too, rejoice with us tonight, for the work that they began in a small way eight years ago has now come to a successful close. "Once more, welcome, to all welcome."

"We have had much to be thank ful for. The Dear Lord has watched over us and protected us to this day. He has so led us that we have been more fortunate than many other children in receiving a thorough training and education in the essentials of our true religion. He has provided us with patient and faithful teachers, and a school that has met all the requirements. He has given us parents who have not alone watched over our body welfare, but also over our spiritual as well.

"For this we are truly thankful and tonight on behalf of the class of 1937, I voice, the gratitude we feel to all those who have aided and assisted us up to this time.
