If these very halls could speak there would be some- thing like this in their echo. Let us suspend time for a few moments and hearken. I watched all of you enter in the various stages of your career, as l have watched others. You have entered in various classes, and many have dropped by the wayside unable to cope with the situations as they presented themselves. Those of you that stayed had your fun. Your laughter, quips, and wanton wiles resounded through the halls. You enjoyed the contacts and the friendships which will probably endure forever. Your joys far exceeded the disappointments because you stayed to the end. ln your thoughts you will give proper consideration to those influences in guidance, both in administration and faculty, not only for the knowledge but for whatever attempts' were made to help you become better citizens and better fitted for this life you are to live. You will also appreciate the attempts made in the progress of the curriculm in having included mechanical arts and skills as well as those extra-curricular activities which have such an important place. All this has been a definite part of the heritage of the past which in its own little way may fit you for the future. Scientists, writers, dramatists, all other noted people were probably none other than the products of such a school as this. In this World of Tomorrow who knows but that some member of the graduating class of 1940 may write his name in the hall of fame of future generations. ,fi ATC, V Vg ,A -, 1, Q L5 '.,f,Q1 .T W1f.l,TER KOBESKI .... . . . .Presidrnt ROBERT SWOBGDA ..... . . .Vice-President JOSEPHINE CROSSICK , . . ....
