— — Commencement Day COMMENCEMENT day marks the attainment of a worthy goal for which each of you have eagerly striven. The common interests which all of you shared in the various class duties and school activities during these happy years have formed numerous bases for enduring friendships. From your happy contacts with the faculty, the student body and especially with each other as a class, you have gathered many lasting impressions. These brief years of earnest endeavor and happy fellowship surely will afford you many pleasant life memories. In the numerous class activities which you as a group have fostered, you have found opportunity to exercise charity and forbearance with one another. To abide faithfully and loyally by the action of the majority has been the principle on which your class actions have been conducted. The ability to make such adjustments to environment is in a large sense the measure of one ' s capacity for service in the numerous situations met in later life. To the extent that you have exer- cised the principle of adjustment in the spirit of cooperation with your fellows, you have practiced the type and form of relationship which you will need to exercise in the experiences that you will face in the coming years. Our associations with you have been very pleasant. We have mingled feelings at the thought of your leaving. You have eagerly awaited the opportunity to take the responsibilities of the untried future which lies ahead. Your chosen fields of endeavor will challenge your best efforts to do well the work which you have decided to undertake. Your triumphs in the course of proper endeavor shall make us glad also. Your griefs and sorrows can not remain unshared by us. The keen appreciation of the deeper things of life which you have displayed during these years of happy school life, leads us to believe that you will not expect a life of continuous calm or ease. The tasks ahead will test your power of endurance and your capacity for graceful and harmonious adjustment without the sacrifice of any fundamental principles. As the years of experience will add to your wisdom, you will expect to be misunderstood at times when in your opinion there is the least cause for it. May we say in the words of another Accustom yourself to injustice. We have faith in you that in your chosen fields of endeavor you shall constantly live in har- mony with the straight edge of equity, exercise a keen sense of justice, manifest the mellow spirit of meek- ness and practice in sincerity the sound principles of righteousness, mercy and charity. In all your choices may you ever place first things first. We urge you again to follow unashamed and unafraid Him who came to become the Way, the Truth and the Life, keeping yourself in harmony with the will of God. May you find life radiant through the glow and glory of goodness in His service. Re- member that the largest conduct assets are attained by those who serve the best. Strive constantly to be a master in the Kingdom of Life. As students here you now receive our words of farewell. Your past attitude forms the basis for our firm belief in your constant loyalty to your Alma Mater. We bespeak for you a long and joyful life spent in the happy service of your fellow-men throughout a useful career. We pray the Fathers choicest blessings upon you as you go. May you always have the peace that passes understanding. May yours be the inheritance of the pure in heart, so that when at last you come to the close of your earthly career you may face the golden glow of life ' s sunset in the hope of a glorious and happy eternal Dawn.
