. 4 9 of 16 lo .. az..fm.l.f..f Greetings to the Students of Boise High. Once more advice has been given, final grades have been averaged, caps and gowns are ordered, pictures have been taken, and diplomas are engraved. We - approach another commencement! lflow the lower classmen look up to youl How we oldsters envy you seniors! There is really but one commencement period in life, and that is yours just now. College graduation is not comparable to these glamorous high school exercises. You are here at home. Your friends and relatives are admir- ing onlookers. You thrill with the ambitions and hopes of youth. The weight of future responsibilities is not upon you. Joy, peace, happiness, pleasure, anticipation, expectation each in turn tugs at your heart for mastery. May each senior get the thrill of all these emotions and record them on a lasting memory, for of such is a well-rounded life made up. You have been a source of real pleasure to your instructors. Your deeds have enriched the tradi- tions of your alma mater. VVe who now bid you go forth and try your mettle in other fields of conquest wish you to know that you carry our blessings with you. The institution from which you graduate expects to bask in the reflected glory of your achievements. Nay you live up to the very best that is in you and enjoy a long life of service and usefulness-then you will be happy. VVe could not wish you more. INCENT ACTA' Sincerely, W. D. Vxmcmrr. ZKU1 of ?.4 You high school students today are worried, and l don't blame you. When you look beyond graduation you see overcrowded conditions in every career, every profession. You see millions on relief and other millions working for starvation wages, with advancement and opportunity almost forgotten hopes. You are wondering what you can do to earn a decent living a few years from e . l . l EDWIN H. Amms now, and you are sometimes decidedly skeptical about the worth of going to school at all, in terms of financial return. Some of you are coming to school hungry, some are poorly clothed. You are too proud to let us know or to ask for help, and we must admire your spirit. You wonder whether it is not your duty to drop out, get some remnant ofajob, and help your parents in this emergency. Home life has changed so greatly for many of you that you are worried, unhappy, finding it hard to retain your old ambition to finish school. There is no certain solution for these problems before you. Your teacher-advisers can not give you a magic formula that will point the way to happiness and a life of economic comfort. All we can do is to try, as we reach the facts of English or mathematics or mechanics, to foster in you an -,initiative, a working faith, a spirit of conquest to carry you through strenuous times-the dauntless ' spirit of those pioneers whose shout, Les boisl prefaced our comfortable lives here.
