Dr. C· N. jensen THE SPIRIT OF JORDAN The name by which an institution, a corporation, a club or any organi-~ation is designated, carries with it a distinct morale, tone, influence, orradiation. This is particularly so when mention is made of the Beet Diggers.I presume this name originally was coined because of the excellence offarming required in raising beets. Lands are exceptionally free from weeds,carefully tilled and every effort is made for excellent and superior produc-tion. This same spirit manifest by these superior farmers in their work, isseen by the students who attend the Jordan High School, which is situated inthe midst of this farming area. The students and faculty uphold the spirit of superior, wholesome envir-onment, freedom from noxious practices, the cultivation of habits which leadto high standards of conduct, achievements in the field of the arts and science~.as well as in the field of vocational endeavor. Truly it may be said, thespirit of the Beet Digger is that which elevates, makes for greater and granderaccomplishment, as well as for happiness.
SALUTATION The Beetdigger is a tradition at the Jordan High School. Many years inthe future a yearbook will bring to mind memories of friends and activitiesof happy days spent at school. For years, with some few intervals when no yearbook was published,the Beetdigger has made its presence felt among all members of the JordanHigh School. Unless unforseen difficulties appear, faculty and students withthe help of our friends among business advertisers will continue to compiledata necessary to publish the Beetdigger. It is a vital part of the school lifeof all students. The friends of today in school, as well as the activities in which one par-ticipates, will not exert the same influence they now wield as the years ofabsence following graduation from school begin to increase. New experiencesin life outside of school, some of them very disconcerting and discouraging,as well as some which will bring satisfaction and success, will come toweaken and crowd out the experiences of school days. But intervals will come when one's thoughts will revert to school daysagain. That is the time that the Beetdigger will brighten one's later life. Itwill renew acquaintances and cause experiences and activities to live againin one's mind with much satisfaction and joy. Time out of mind has this experience come to me. May it also happento you.
