0-+044-Q-0-0-04-0-0-O-O-9-O-0-QQ-Q-0 MAKE A WISE CHOICE Q, Q OMMENCEMENT Day! What a thrill, what expectations those words bring to the heart of the graduate! A day filled with varying experiences: greetings, heart throbs, joys, regrets, am- bitions, desires, farewells. A day never to be forgotten. Friends, teachers, companions are parted, never to be associated in the old, happy way. The heart wells with sadness when the fare- wells are said. But these feelings soon pass. Life and its adven- tures stretch before. There is the excitement facing the future, the joy of Winning success, the expectation of building a glorious life. Ahead is the school of life. Success in this school is not made wholly by book knowl- edge, though it certainly contributes, but is largely determined by the strength and develop- ment of character. The graduate by this time should have learned to be persistent and stead- fast, and to think clearly. If a prob- lem or a question cannot be answered at once, the student has learned to go pa- tiently over the various points, to apply the light of clear thinking, and so to reach his conclusion from an unobscured mind. He has achieved other things, also 3 among them perhaps a strong, healthy body, and proficiency in some art or trade. But more than these are necessary. The character, to assure one's suc- cess, must be broadly developedf' The IL-ni graduate should express kindness and consideration. He must build on a con- structive foundation. He needs to be able to distinguish the desirable from the undesirable in life. ' To build this foundation he must se- lect his words carefully. Negative words will never build a constructive founda- tion. Just what are negative 'vvords? They are words of sadness, of failure, of sickness. They are the op- posite of joy, success, health, strength, enthusiasm. The graduate will know, when he stops to think, that words do produce after their kind. If one continually talks about failure and unhappiness, failure and unhappiness in- variably result. The person who makes life worth while sees success in the face of apparent failure, and dis- cerns a life of great hap- piness, joy and well-being. On graduation day it is Well that we should stop and think a while on the possibilities of life. We must decide what kind of life We desire to lead, whether it is to be the Wide road of pleasure, or the narrower path of great purpose. The giant tree, as we all know, has resisted rains, Winds, and storms, it has held to its purpose to be a good tree. In our purpose to be good citi- zens, we resist all negation, holding firmly and steadfastly to the higher principles of life. We choose to ex- press only the good, only the true. Commencement Day is the end of one span of our life's activities and the en- tering into a greater one. 4-o 4-o-0-o-0-0-0-QQ PAGE 22
