AS A MAN THINKETH JAMES H. SWINK, JR. l'Ve have come to the end of one phase of our lives and to the beginning of another. Behind us lie twelve years of intense effort. During those years we have delved into the science of mathematicsg we have pried into the mysteries of our universeg we have scanned the history of our country and our world. We have caught a glimpse of far horizons. All of those years represent the combined efforts of ourselves, our teach- ers, our parents, our society, to bring us to this day- ready to step out into a new life. Today we are the youth of the landg tomorrow we are the hope of the world. In a great many respects we are similar to all the other graduating classes that have gone before us. We have similar dreams and visions. We have the same desires for peace and contentment, and we have the same wide world in which to labor, to make our hopes and dreams become realities. But in one respect at least, we are different from any who have gone before. lVe are the first graduating class in the memory of man horn and schooled in one age and graduated into another. We become the first youth to grapple with the problems of the atomic age. lve are indeed the hope of the world, for whether we go down to de- struction in one cataclysmic blast of nature's might, or whether we rise to new heights of civilized living de- pends very largely upon us. W'e are not the hrst youth who have been the hope of the world. Every generation has sent forth its young men and young women to make this a better place in which to live, and the youth of every generation have risen to meet whatever challenge life has presented to them. How well they have done is evidenced by the monuments that bear their names and that testify to their tremendous achievements. But, though their advances have been real, they have not given us a per- fect world. They have not solved all the problems that beset mankind. There is still poverty, with a good portion of the earth's people underfed and poorly housed. There is still disease, with heart disease, and cancer, and tuberculosis, the great killers of men, going on unchecked. There is still ignorance even in our own favored America-such ignorance that permits us to spend more for alcohol than we do for education and ten times as much for crime prevention as for train- ing our youth while they are yet young so that they will choose the ways of honesty and decency. Nor are these the only problems of the imperfect world in which we live. War continues to spread like a plague over the face of the earth, devastating cities, and de- stroying whole populations, and leaving the country- side blighted. Men are still oppressed, governments are still pervertedg justice is still blinded. No, we have not been left a perfect world in which to waste away our lives. We have been left unfinished tasks, and tasks not yet begun, and opportunities greater than any other generation has ever known. Some may say that youth, lacking in years and ex- perience and proven ability, is a slender reed on which to pin our hopes for better things. But, oh, my friends, youth, inexperienced youth, has unlimited capacity for the three things the world so desperately needs-dreams, and work, 'and faith. The world has traveled a long distance on the wings of dreams-out of darkness, and fear, and superstition to the glories of present day living, out of the cold and cheerless caves of our ancestors to the modern homes of today. For long centuries man plodded across the face of the earth in the dust and heat, but today, on the wings of yesterday's dreams, he speeds through the heavens. Dreams are the seedlings of reality. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and the highest vision of the soul, a waking angel stirs. Who knows what heaven-sent dream of some youth today will transform atomic energy from a destructive bomb to the obedient servant of humanity? In the dreams of the youth of today may be seen the shape of the world tomorrow. The world needs dreamers, but it needs workers also -men and women who are not blinded by the sweat that pours from their brows and who do not cringe from blistered hands. Thomas Edison once said, I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my in- ventions come by accident, they came by work. Mountains are not leveled without toilg rivers are not spanned by a wish, and the world of tomorrow will not be fashioned without work! The best verse hasn't been rhymed yet, The best house hasn't been planned, The highest peak hasn't been climbed yet, The mightiest rivers aren't spannedg Don't worry and fret, fainthearted, The chances have just begun , For the best jobs haven't -been started, The best work hasn't been done. Without work, dreams remain mere wishingg without faith, work becomes aimless drudgery. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. If in our daily tasks we lcannot see with the eyes of faith the world we are trying to create, then we are veritable slaves, doomed t row our galleys over the seas of the earth, and to liv and die in un- remitting toil. Perhaps to some of you the quiy ring voice of Fear may be whispering, i'HQ1N'fE-2E1XYQll dream about a world of which you know nothing? How can you have faith in your ability to solve problems never be- fore presented to man? Listen, you who fear, to a great truth spoken 2,000 years ago: As a man think- eth in his own heart, so is he. Yes, as a man think- eth, so is he, for like the wind which blows one ship east and another west, we are lifted up or pulled down according to the way we set our sails of thought: If you think you are beaten, you are, If you think you dare IIOI, you don't, If you like to win, but think you can't, It is almost certain you wonit. If you think you'll- lose, you're lost, For out of the world we find, Success begins with a fellow's will- lt's all in the state of mind. lf you think you are outclassed, you areg You've got to think high to rise, You've got to be sure of yourself before You can ever win a prize. Life's battles don't always go To the stronger or faster man, But soon or late the man who wins Is the man who thi ks he can. We are the youth the land. We are the hope of the world. In our creams we will find the world of tomorrow. lvith our work we will create it. Through our faith we shall enter into it. ff
