ou’(?r.s ] 1 lessdcje The years which you have spent in this school have included the endin and the aftermath of the most ruthless and worthless war that the world has known. Mil- lions have died in battle; other millions have been left cold and starving and hope- less. Men of good will are determined that such a calamity shall not recur if it can be prevented. Some nations abroad have proclaimed that democracy as we understand it has been a failure, and they have allowed the reins of government to be taken over by one man or a small group of men. America, more than any other country, has kept her head. We have had our strikes and other hardships, but we are unwilling to re- sign our birthright and let some one else shoulder our responsibilities. There is no doubt that the calmness, the patience, and the level-headedness shown by our people in these trying years is owing in large measure to the work of our schools. The purpose of the state in founding public education -for its own protection- has been vindicated. The work which lies ahead is a work of reconstruction, of building. You boys, and boys like you, will be the builders, for the building will be accomplished in the years of your young manhood. You are bringing to it all the vigor and enthusiasm and idealism of youth. You are going to be able to rise above the din and the con- fusion, to think straight, to see where you are going and whom you must help along the way. In this machine age, men have been trusting and believing in only what the could see and touch and count. Those material things are to work with, not to work for. Your building will last only so long as you protect and preserve its spir- itual framework: truth, honesty, loyalty, cooperation, trust in yourself, and trust in God. The words which Saint Paul, the disciple of the Master builder, wrote to the Romans two thou. ' and years ago are addressed to us also: “For, the things which are seen, are temporal; but the things which are un.seen, are eternal. “ Pag,e Seven
