Who’s got a problem

Valedictory Address Inspector Menzies Honored Guests Teachers Students Ladies and Gentlemen I feel great ' ly honored and privileged to have been chosen vale¬ dictorian for this, one of the most important and memorable days of our lives. We have long anticipated this day, but now we stand, somewhat hesitant, on the threshold of this new phase of life. But since we have reached objectives in the past we will again be able to do so in the future. We, as graduates, extend our gratitude to each one who has contributed to our education. A hearty “thank-you” goes out to the school board and the community for your services. We feel greatly in¬ debted to our parents who have on innumerable occasions sacrificed amenities in order to give us access to an education which has been denied them. We also thank each one of the teachers for your concern and your prayers, as well as the many hours of patient instruction at school. May the Lord reward you for the challenge and example you have been to us. Our deepest gratitude belongs to the One who has guided us with His omnipotent Hand. We have shared many pleasant, as well as some not so pleasant, experiences while acquiring knowledge. We now dare smile at the nasty history “quizzes” and those ‘distance, rate, and time’ problems in algebra. We realize that the seemingly useless composition classes may contribute to our success in the future as well. Because education is becoming increasingly important in our day and age, we challenge you, fellow students, to study diligently and be satisfied with no less than the best. While ascending the mountain of knowledge we have gazed into the depths beyond, still finding more knowledge to grasp. Even now we see many more peaks which we must reach. Our experience can be likened to that of Ulyses’ who found that ‘all experience is an arch wherethrough gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades forever and forever when I move.’ We must continue climbing in an attempt to reach the ultimate summit. May we all be found worthy, on that last day, of the words of the Master, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant.” Mary Lynn PAGE 10
