Fairfax High School - Colonial Yearbook (Los Angeles, CA)

FELLOW CLAssMATEs: I feel particularly close to the Class of Summer '30, because you, or some of you, came to Fairfax as B7's when the school was opened, and have lived with me through all the life of the school. You have helped to shape the policies, to establish the customs, to start things which we hope will become traditions. Year after year we have worked side by side for our school, sometimes making mistakes, some- times building something of substance and durability, all the time coming to appreciate each other more, to see each otherls good traits, to overlook each other's faults. And now you are about to go out into a large field of activity, to put into effect the theories we Worked out together here. I trust that you realize that only the worker is entitled to live, that all labor is honorable, provided it has an honest aim, that to live largely one must be noble in word, honorable in deedvg that service must come before self, or as Rotary puts it, that 'Ahe profits most who serves best. If you have learned these lessons while we have walked side by side, your future years will be happy ones, your community will be the richer because of your presence, and We at Fairfax will have discharged a part of our duty to this city and to posterity.

We are subject, in our intellectual and spiritual life, to a darkness called ignorance, manifesting itself in prejudice, superstition, and hate. This darkness must be replaced by its antithesis-light. You have discovered long ago, however, that the mere presence of opportunity may mean little to you. It is necessary for you to use the opportunity aflorded. Greater knowledge brings with it greater responsibility-greater vision brings greater duty-these are yours as you leave this outpost lighted by the lamp of knowledge. Sincerely your friend, IZHI
