3 utc;itonj THE STREETS OF LIFE The time has arrived today. We, the class of ' 41, are to step upon the streets of life. Our hfe has been sheltered, our decisions made for us. We have been told to take certain streets and to be careful of the crossings. Tomorrow we shall have thrown off the cloak of protection and with the knowledge we have gained these past twelve yea rs, we shall be expected to choose our own directions. We are not to be considered children any longer. We are young men and women! We ' ve always thought of earning our living as something far away, unreal. Now that it is upon us, we ' re not sure just what to think. But we do know one thing, a thing so big that little, everyday qualms and fears of life dissolve and leave us feeling strong and glad. We know that there are streets on which men live, men who hold out fine clean hands and say to us Welcome. Here is life. Share it with us. When we step through the doors of Angola High School for the last time, our journeys will probably take us first — down the street of temptation, for all men are tempted. I need not tell you how we shall be tempted for there are many ways. The street is filled with those who have fallen because they were not strong willed enough to keep away from the wiles of temptation. If we survive temptation we shall go on down the streets of life. If we do not, we shall go only to the next street, the street to which temptation leads. Failure. On this street live men who have tried but once and not being successful have settled back to mourn their loss and to dream of what might have been. As our reward for not yielding to temptation we shall be allowed to journey through the streets of success. Great men have built their homes here. There we shall live in contentment, happiness, and security. And so I say let us build our homes upon a street where love and brotherhood have hung their welcome signs for others to see, where we may live and in our living give to other lives the selfsame urge to live. — MARYANN HICKS.
