We are confident you will employ the advantages available to you for building an even greater America. Today, more young Americans than ever before are afforded the opportunity of striving for scholastic excellence. This product of American Democracy is the best nourishment possible for sustaining itself. CONGRATULATIONS ! CLASS OF 1966 To be able to take life as we find it is the key to wholesome living. Not to fret because everything isn't the way we would like it to be. Not to fear because living is fraught with dangers. To recognize that there is some happiness hidden in every circumstance and life is an opportunity to share in it. Nearly everyone would like to be born brilliant and witty, wealthy and wise. But the lucky number who are is small indeed. What little brilliance most of us achieve is the result of hard work with an average brain. Our wit is recognized only by those who have a deep affection for us. Our wealth is more in the opportunity to live and progress in a country where there is still a reasonable degree of freedom. Whatever wisdom we attain comes from the consequences of many mistakes. Though we live in times when evil men threaten the thing we hold most dear, yet we cannot let awareness of them determine everything we do. We must face up to danger as a part of life. Most fears never materialize if we go about the business of living with courage and confidence and a readiness to enjoy whatever happiness comes our way. EAU CLAIRE PACKING CO. R. A.
