One hundred years ago, courageous men and women, lured by the prospect of fortunes in the Far West, moved across the continent in covered wagons and by horseback, traveled over mountains and the trackless plains, and braved danigers from Indians and starvation to reach their goal. These people opened to our country vast fields of endeavor. During the last one-hundred years, our country has grown in many ways. As it broadened in expanse, so it has grown in power, wealth, industry an-d knowledge. Today, we stand at the gateway of a new kind of civilization. The world of tomorrow is ours to formulate. The great discoveries of science, the wealth of those gold deposits, the power of industry and the knowledge of truth must be used by us to create a world of peace and unity for all mankind. It is our task. School life gives to us the keys to open those gates. As the pioneer collected provisions be- fore starting on his westward trek, so we collect stores of knowledge to fortify us in our jour- ney through life, In our journey we must brave the dangers of hatred and deceit. These tools, given us in school, will be our arms against the world so that We may, like the pioneers, reach our goal successfully. 1 -..,f' JUL 1 A, fri' 'ox ' 1' 'ff !ll.sti73'.,
