Over the drawbridge anddtiirougii the castle gates, streams of youth pour in and out. There is a marked difference in their appearance. On the faces of those enter- ing to receive a four-year training for lcniglfitilood are mingled expressions of apprehension, curiosity, and eagerness: but the countenances of those leaving to take a more active part in community life radiate self-reliance, courage, and knowledge. ii if LLJJXQ , I 25 flu, r.

CO US PRESIDENTS ADDRESS Fellow-classmates, Ladies and Genttemen: At tast, seniors we have passed the third and tast milestone in stucties and high school activities, and we are now ready tor more ad- venturesg ctetinite plans tor the iuture have heen matte hy some ot us, hut, tor the most ot IIS, uncertainty prevails. Un the whole this uncertainty can he attrito- uted to the depression. All ot our junior high and senior high school ctays have tleen spent during this trying perioct. Vve have been com- petted to he satistied without participating in many events which classes ol' previous years have deemed necessities. Vvhen we liirst en- tered school, prosperity was at its peatc, hut att too quictaty the depression came. VVhen this linanciat and economic sutnnormatcy hrotce upon us, we were old enough to realize its importance. Vvhenever it was possitnte, we helped our parents in this crisis, not only toy worlc, hut also hy sacritice ot our personal toihtes. It is true that the prospect ot employment immediately upon graduation is not so good: hut it we do not dissipate our strength and character, t am sure we may avoid the ranlcs ol the unemptoyect. The school attempts to meet this situation hy its vocational guidance program. This program has made it possihte lor us to tearn something ahout the type ot wortc in which we are interested. We hope the tmowt- edge gained through these vocational interviews will he toeneliciat to us. We tmow our scholastic tmowtedge wilt he ot use, it we exercise it. We have atso received guidance on the use ot our leisure time. We have taeen taught to have hohtoies--to stcetch. to play some musical instrument, to wortc in woods, leather and metals, to sew and cootc, to read and write, in short'-to express ourselves. Because ot these experiences, we wilt he more ahte to meet and cope with the protmtems ot physical existence. lVtentat existence has been made possitzte through years ot association with students who have had similar ideals, ideals which have ted to a tovetier sense ot tettowship and to a realiza- tion ot the necessity ot unity in our tives, it we wish tor a continuity ot the pattern. As our last year comes to an end, t urge you to tootc hactc, to reminesce, over your school years. Thinlc ot the happy times we have had, and the deep lrienctships we have tormed, never to he hrotcen. To me it stitt seems incredible that the largest class in the history ot the school has reached its last mite-post, that this is iourney's end. tn conclusion, t wish to thantc you att tor your friendship and cooperation during the past year. it is my sinceie wish that your tuture will contain a't the success and happiness which tie world can bestow upon you.
