You have attained your high school graduation, toward which you have been working for four years. When you began your course, this goal probably seemed far distant. However, for those who have work that challenges them to the best that they are capable of doing, time passes quickly. Let us look at graduation from high school from the standpoint of attainment. Ac- cording to statistics, out of every one hundred pupils who enter the first grade only fifty enter high school. From this group, only ten are graduated. Therefore, you are a select group. You have qualities and characteristics that are worthwhile, you have mastered that which has confronted you thus far in life. Many of you will continue your education in institutions of higher learning. More- over, not every high school graduate has this privilege. Statistics show that only three out of every ten who are graduated from high school enjoy this privilege. You, then, who go to school should prepare for greater service because of your increased training. Those of you who do not enter college will find other worthwhile goals. To whatever you select, may you give the same quality of effort that you have displayed in your high school work. Always keep the goal of service before you. Wealth, fame, and honor, if attained. may pass away quickly. But true satisfaction and joy will crown the efforts of those who have kept before them the thought that We live to serve. My sincere wish is that you may be successful and happy in whatever your life work may be. May we cherish in our hearts the memories of our association in high wmdww school.
