-5AXNT on tin athletic teams of the high school. Ami then another year was from . We were Juniors. We became a more important part of tin school. Again we took our part in musical, literary ami athletic lines. Again we upheld our honor as a class and helped uphold tin honor of the school. Next we entered on our career as Seniors. The past three years had slipped so swiftly by that we began to he fearful that our high school life was nearly over, and we determined to make the best of what part of it was left. We entered with a vengeance into every possible school activity, and still did our utmost to keep our records as scholars. We believe that this last year has been our most successful. We have represented and helped represent our II. S. in every kind of a contest: in literary and musical contests, in athletic contests of all kinds. We have tried to do our share in bringing honor to ngola. During these last four years we have worked together in making history for A. II. S., and we realize that we are together responsible for what she lias done. Whether these past four years are to he a credit or discredit to us, only time will tell. In any case, tonight, our only wish is, that we had worked harder, made better use of our time, and been a correspondingly greater credit lo our high school. We feel that in life's school, just as in school life, there are tasks for us to do, and with the benefit of our high school training we hope that again we shall feel the joy of accomplishment. During the last four years we have learned the value of team work. We have learned that by working together v e can accomplish far more than we could by working as individuals. I believe that this is the most valuable lesson that has been taught us. It is this theory of a nation working together that makes a democratic government possible. If our high school training has tended to make us better citizens than we otherwise would have been, it has been a success. If not it has been only wasted time. We shall soon know whether or not we have taken proper advantage of our training, and whether or not we have studied enough and understood the principles upon which our government is founded; or what is better, if our training here has put into our minds a thirst for greater knowledge, and with tin satisfying of this thirst a correspondingly greater efficiency in our place as citizens of a great country. Ilonoiable members of the school board, members of the faculty, parents, and citizens of Angola, we feel that you will understand and sympathize with our mingled feelings of joy and sorrow, of enthusiasm and regret, this evening. Many among you no doubt can remember when you were in similar circumstances and experienced like emotions. We want you to understand that we appreciate the advantages that you have given us: that we have appreciated the privilege of attending a good high school, and the privilege of being under the guidance of good teachers. We want you to know that we have appreciated the loyal way you have supported the school activities in which we were interested. Before the curtain falls that raised tin morning of our first iay in school, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all those who have helped make our school life a success. Four years ago we may have made a great many mistakes while trying to gracefully enter the II. S., but it will never be said that we knocked as we entered. And now, as we leave, because of the splendid co-operation of the people of Angola in making us happy while here, we will leave the same v ay, without knocking, from what we consider the best and dearest old H. 8. in Indiana. With the best wishes that friend can have for friend, we bid you all a kind farewell. CARL CRAMER.
