TO THE GRADUATES 1'or the past three years you hate been accepting the offerings of the California Polytechnic school. H e hope the vocational opportunity you received has been all you have anticipated and as a result of your diligent efforts, you will be better able to take your rightful place in the occupation for ivhich you have prepared yourself. The faculty and all those connected with the institution are proud of you. H’e expect to hear great things of you in the very near future. If you will apply yourselves as you have while students at the California Polytechnic school, your success will be assured. Your success will be our success. The time you have spent with us, even though comparatively short, will always bring us pleasant memories. You are taking away with you a great deal more than the mere training which you received in your classes. The comradeship of your fellow classmates and instructors, the traditions of the school, the activities in which you have participated, and the many responsibilities which have been thrust upon you, should be of great value to you in your life work, f rom now on you will have to depend a great deal more upon your own initiative and ability in the work which you will be doing. I am convinced that each and every one of you trill make records that will not only bring glory upon yourself, but also upon your alma mater. The future of the California Polytechnic school will depend a great deal upon your success and your loyalty. JULIAN A. McPHEE.
