Dr Frank L Cloud Pruncnpal THERE comes to all of us ln the course of our llves changes which seem so radical that for the time we cannot get our bearmgs Such a change us coming to you the graduates of the Class of June l936 The state of mmd and the physical sltuatlon both become from this day a new and strange world The responslbllltles that you face must be met by you alone No longer do your teachers and your parents share them as they have done heretofore Your posltlon m the world has shifted so that you must carry you may undertake You can not shlft the responslblllty to some one else You must assume rt all How well you will do this depends on the results that you have obtained from this mstructlon you have recelved In Hugh School Your weeks and months of what you thought was hard work wlll appear easy In contrast to the future that IS before you But out of It will come that existence whlch we call llfe with all Its pleasures and pams Your school wlshes you all posslble success and us ready to rejonce when you rejouce and feel regret If you do not succeed ' . 1' I ' I your own burden, make your own decisions and succeed or fofl in whatever , .
