SALUTATORY OUR INSPIRATION Friends: Did you ever stop to think how much may lie underneath the surface of this word that I have chosen to speak to you? Welcome! — the word that endeavors to assure you that you have Well Come, — the word that we try to express in so many ways, and yet that may be so beautifully summed up in the words of that clever hos- tess who proposed the enigma: My first, I hope you are; My second, I see you are; My whole, I know you are! For after all our fine words and high sound- ing phrases, how much more can be really put into this greeting for our friends — We hope you are Well, we see you have Come, and we know you are Welcome. Sometime during my high school life I have read the following from Longfellow ' s Psalm of Life : Lh ' es of great men all remind us, We can make our lives sublime, And departing leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. Such influence and inspiration from the lives of great people come only from reading and studying aliout them. One of tlie most in- fluential workers in our world today is Jane Addams. We seniors need inspiration if we are to live up to our class motto, Life Is What We Make It. Jane Addams first in- spiration was her father ' s thumb. She would sit for hours and rub ground wheat between her thumb and fingers, hoping that in time her thumb would become flat too. When but a mere child of six, she went to the dirty, crowded residential district of a large city and saw the way the poor people lived. She asked her father why people lived in such surroundings when they might have the beauty of the woods and wide skies that she loved so well. There it was ! She vowed to have a spacious house, set apart from the beautiful homes and placed amid the squalor of the city. Years later she stood on a Inisy street corner in London on a Saturday night and watched the poor peo- ple buy the spoiled food that had lain in the markets for several days. She remembered Page twenty-one her vow of an earlier date and set about qualifying for settlement work. The result was the establishment of Hull Hoiise. Jane Addams and Hull House stand for teaching the poor to appreciate beauty and the value of having good health. The blot on her hap- l)iness at the present time is that she has only two hands, one woman ' s strength, and only one great heart to share with the teem- ing world that she loves so well. Another famous woman is Helen Keller. When I think of Helen Keller, I think of a deaf and blind woman who has learned to see the beautiful. One day when she was still but a little child, she said to her teacher, 1 am blind and deaf. That is why I cannot see God. Then iliss Sullivan taught her something about seeing that many people never learn — there is a sight different from phy- sical sight that helps us to see the beauty in the visible things around us. A few years later ] Iiss Keller said, I am not shut out from the region of the beau- tiful because I have no physical sight. I know many persons who have jjerfect eyes but are really blind. Their eyes are open but their hearts are closed. One time Mr. Joseph Jefferson was ex- plaining to her what the bumps on her head meant. That, he said, is your prize- fighting bump. I never fight, she replied, except against difficulties. And she spoke the truth, for her whole life has been a struggle against difficulties. Think of going through school — and finishing college — with eyes and ears closed ! But knowledge to Helen Keller opened up a world of beauty that nothing else could have won for her. We, the senior class of 1934, wish to ex- press our appreciation to you, dear parents, teachers, and friends, for the inspiration you have given us during the last four years, and we hope that we may prove deserving of your untiring efforts in our behalf. — Harriet Ewers.
