In a world of conflicting ideologie-s, democracy versus communism, men must possess firm bases for making de- cisions. Your school has provided the educational opportunities required for making these most important decisions. All students have enjoyed equal educational opportunities for fulfill- ing their needs as individuals and groups in a democratic society that is America. They must realize, though, that these have been opportunities and not guarantees. What stu- dents make of these opportunities will be reflected in the strength and progress of our country. The students who understand and value the basic ideas of freedom and who are ready to participate effectively in the civic life of our nation will have demonstrated their achievement of these opportunities. The future holds further a challenge to our democratic way of life and a preservation of the dignity of the individual. By achieving permanent foundations, the graduates of the class of i960 will be able to push the buttons of the future for the salvation of mankind. f 15

Not I, is your quick reply, believe me, l'm glad it's all over and at last l can enjoy freedom from teachers and the grind. Now I can do just as l please. I am sorry to tell you that graduation is just another stepping stone and not the end. Whether you take any additional formal education or not, your public school training from kindergarten to grade twelve has been the foundation upon which you will build your entire life. Just as you have grown physi- cally in these past eighteen years, so you have grown mentally and morally. It is our hope as a school that we have given you the broad, firm foundation upon which your life can be built to unlimited heights. We hope that we have inspired you sufhciently to continue your mental and moral growth as long as you live. Remember, however, inspira- tion without perspiration will end in a dream and not reality. 355,94 101:04 Luther A. Weik Administrative Assistant . . . Lebanon Valley, B.S., Univ. ot Penna MS
