Pg A .QQ W1 A r V L TZ 3Life ILSTELLA Coram l.ife, what holdest thou in store for me? To each of us comes a time when we sit down and wonder why we are where we are, of what use we are to the world, and what life has to offer us. Thoughts wander on, and we picture ourselves in many walks of life. We realize that we have more talent along some lines than others, and then we chosse our life's work. 'XVe must decide whether we will serve humanity and be a help to the world, or whether we willdrift vxnth the tide. As we look back over the days we have spent at La Sierra and see how its principles can help us in later life, we would say to those who are yet in school, Determine early that vou will be true and honest men and women. Don't think that your school days are the only ones where you will have decisions to make, where battles must be fought. Life is filled to the brim with all kinds of experiences and the way you meet today's diffi- culties will determine your success for tomorrow. Learn the art of being calm, for it is a rare possession in human life. Dear old Alma Mater! The skies have not always been sunny since we, the Alumni, bade you good-bye. But the principles you taught us have helped us to be brave and to make the best of every circumstance. Since we came to the parting of the wavs, we have followed various paths. Many of us have continued in the search for knowledge and are again in school: some of us are teachers, scme nurses, some colporteursg still others are at work and a few are giving their time and talent to making homes. But wherever we may he, the memory of La Sierra lingers, and in our hearts its les- sons and principles, its friends and associations, have found an abiding place. May each class that is graduated always remember its motto and aim and strive to live up to them individually from day to day. Life is not living just for today: Life is not dreaming all the short way. To live is to do what must he doneg To work and be true, for work is soon done. 'Tis living for others, to lighten their load: 'Tis helping our brothers and trusting in God. uv There are two sciences which every man ought to learn: first the science of speech: second, the more difficult one of silence. Lincoln said, Keep pegging away, For pluck, not luck, will win the dayg And he who will. not he who won't, Will go ahead and reach the front. TWENTY-TWO
