Members of the Class of '52, the School Board of Snowden Township, individually and as representatives of the people of Snowden Town- ship, congratulates you on your successful com- pletion of the prescribed course of study in our school. Although there are many things that you learned which, in your opinion at the time, probably seemed useless, they all become, and are, a part of your reservoir of knowledge, which should, and we are sure will, make you a better citizen, a better neighbor, and a more tolerant person. During your twelve years in the public schools, you worked continuously, delving into the past, studying the histories of the various countries of this world, and particularly the his- tory of America. In your geographic studies you learned of the various cultures, trades, occupa- tions and customs existing throughout the world. Everything that we have today, whether it be a piece of line machinery, whether it be a special skill or knowledge, or whether it be the freedoms which we have long cherished but often 'take for granted, is definitely and clearly tied up and linked with the past, and, just as surely and inex- orably, you, individually and as a class, and your generation, will contribute and add to the future. The lessons of history are as important to us as a nation as our own individual past experi- ences are important to us as individuals in the development of our own trade, our learning, and our education. We can learn from the study of the past that 'throughout history people have made errors, that often times have been turbu- lent and the future looked dismal, and yet the world, and this country, not only survived such ordeals, but came from out of these dark periods better for the experience. We believe that We are at such a place in history now, that if you learn and keep in mind the lessons of the past, that the future will be brighter than it ever was. Again, congratulations and good luck!
