MR. SPENCER RAVEL Our educational system has come a long way since the little red schoolhouse of our grandfathers. The important issue now, however, is not how much better we are than yesterday, but whether we are good enough for tomorrow's demands. Careful planning is needed, and a concerted effort must be made to keep our strategies dynamic. Our failure to do so can result in our becoming second rate and will eventually affect our influence, prestige, and strength among nations. Most of us feel that education is important, but few realize that it is urgent. lt is in your hands, as citizens of tomor- row, to see that we move forward. The hopes and prayers of your administrators and faculty go with you as you go forth to meet your future. . Afggwfvk l MR. LLOYD JAYNE A person owes it to himself to utilize his re- sources in raising the standards of his own life as well as those with whom he associates. Your talents have been explored, but need much more development. Your future provides a challenge to develop other qualities. Consider these: Friendship: the art of looking for the good and not the bad, and learning to under- stand both ourselves and others. Cooperation: the ability to work together with our fellow-man. Tolerance: the willingness to listen to the other fel- low's point of view. Courtesy: consideration of the feelings of others. Gratitude: appreciation of the many blessings received no matter how small. These attributes together with a sense of re- sponsibility to yourself, your family, your community, and your country demand your best. We wish you success. ff-cffffj
