Q F i 9 I'o ffzv Clam of Jzmv, I9,.9: You are looking forward to graduation and commencement. How encourag- ing that those two ideas should be synonymous! If the completion of some worthy undertaking means also an opportunity to begin more important work, with what Zeal we finish the first task, that we may hend our efforts toward greater endeavor. This will not he your last graduation or commencement. As the ending of spring is hut the beginning of summer, so in all nature and life new channels open as old ones disappear. If we stroll or ride through unknown country, with what satisfaction we find at each road end, a turn leading to new discoveries. How disastrous if our chosen road hranched into no attractive or interesting paths, hut merely ended in a wall of ohlivionl May you each not only choose roads that open into many delightful avenues, but also follow each path with the persistence and keen search, which never misses an opportunity for growth and service. STELLA C. CULLEN. Twelve

T0 the Clam' of June, 1929: By your deeds we have known you. By your deeds you shall be known. Four years ago you assumed your duties as members of this class. Today you enjoy your reward in the consciousness of having successfully and honorably completed the tasks assigned you. Soon you will be scattered unto all parts of the globe, some never to meet again. Wherever you are and whatever you do, always bear in mind that actions speak louder than words. You have been most fortunate in your choice of class officers. It has been a privilege to be allowed to work with so splendid a group. They have not shirked, but as a body they have tried to serve you. lVlany of you I have known personally and I highly appreciate these friendships. To each of you I wish the best that life can give, and when the real test of character comes may you be given the strength to live up to the spirit of West Philadelphia High and be able to say, I am here to do my duty. Sincerely, AARON S. LONGACRE. Eff-11611
