Q2-in . Milestones I Class of Winter '32, you have reached the first great mile- stone in your educational experience. However, remember that intellectual, moral, and spiritual GROWTH is the law of a well- regulated life. Constantly use the many opportunities sur- rounding you day and night to better prepare yourself for your life work. Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul, As the swift seasons roll! Let each new temple, nobler than the last, Leave thy low vaulted past! . Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast, Till thou at length art free Leaving thine outgrown shell by 1ife's unresting sea. S. V. Gooo, Principal It is your good fortune that you are graduating in this Bicentennial year when the nation is celebrating the two hun- dredth anniversary of George Washington's birth. You are being constantly reminded of the fine qualities of this great man-his devotion to his family, friends, and countryg his broad visiong his unselfishnessg his love of peaceg his abiding interest in education. Valued and loyal graduates of Luther Burbank Junior High School, grateful for the opportunities it has afforded you, you are especially appreciative of Washington's interest in universal education. It is our confident hope that you may develop these qualities that made him distinguished and that as splendid citizens you too may contribute much to the advancement of the interests of your nation. ' CLAIRE EPLER, Girls' Vice-Principal You, the members of the W'32 class, are fortunate to have your graduation' fall in this Bicentennial year, when we are especially honoring the memory of the Father of our country. It is hoped that each member of this class will be impressed by the true value of this noble character, and we trust that you all will try to emulate the splendid example set by this great American: Washington's courage and patriotism, his unsel- fishness and self-sacrifice, his wisdom 'of action and his purity of soul, will arouse the imagination and inspire the soul of everyone who loves his country.
