To the Faculty Achieving success requires the overcoming of many obstacles present in the path leading to it . . . verify this for yourself by consid- ering the life of any man whom you honor for his accomplishments. And so we, Seniors of '39, having recognized years ago that we would, in the future, be faced with perplexing problems, decided to facilitate our mastery of them by striving for academic perfection, knowing that through education alone could we expect to reap more abundantly of our life's work. Thus, at our graduation, we feel just pride in our fulfillment of a strenuous curriculum. But although we are proud of our attainment, let it not be thought that we overlook our obligation to those with whom we worked. To our many friends of East Night we extend our thanks for the encouragement they have transmitted to us through their persistence and fine examples. We have regarded them as comrades in a mutual undertaking, and a parting of comrades is always deeply felt. It is needless to reiterate our appreciation for the members of the faculty under whom we have had the privilege to study. It is under- stood that to them is extended our warmest acclaim, for they inspired us to fight for the acquisition of similar distinguished learning. Our best wishes for your continued success and recognition. Carry on, East Night! Let the hallowed halls that are yours- filled with the enviable traditions that are synonomous with you- ever reflect your benevolence. We bid you and that for which you stand farewell with the deepest regret. JOHN SCHEPER. Page Eleven

From the Faculty Life is always new and intriguing to those who want success, for they believe in the saying, The world is yours, oyster, but you must open it yourself. The pressure of the outside world may cause some of you to be a bit timid in opening your shells. Others of you may feel more confident and strain at your bonds, so that you may test your mettle with the world's finest. Whether you wish it or not, out you go to seek better vocations in life. No one acquainted with modern problems underestimates the difficulties facing you. It is by no means an impossible one. We, your teachers, will have failed during your four years with us, if you have not developed some sort of guiding philosophy by which to live. We are not concerned with the need of such a philosophy as much as with a method of development and with the ability to apply it. Our farewell wish is that, regardless of your individual philosof phies, you may accept this one challenge, to see life steadily and to see it whole. THOMAS K. F. BURNS. Page Thirteen
