DEAR STUDENTS: You arc now entering upon another phase of the adventure of life. It is an adventure of mingled trials and pleasures. None are forced to struggle through alone, but altogether, helping one another over the difficult places. Some of you it will lead, without doubt, into strange lands, some into scientific discovery or application, some into the great material treasures of life, some to heroic sacrifices, and all, let us hope, to worthy service IN and FOR a better state. Now, in this adventure, you hope to win success. “There is but one straight road to success, and that is merit. The man who is successful is the man who is useful. Capacity never lacks opportunity. It cannot remain undiscovered, because it is sought by too many anxious to utilize it. A capable man on earth is more valuable than any deposit under the earth, and the object of a much more vigilant search.” Very faithfully vours, Page 1H

 DEAR. STrDENTS: The time has finally come when you are to leave Brackenridge High School and are to go forth into other fields of endeavor, whether it be for further study or whether it be for the more serious business of making a living. It is my sincere wish that, when you have left the halls of this institution, you take with you the Brackenridge “Spirit”, and also a firm resolve that you will carry on as you have so nobly done here. We, of the faculty, have done our best to develop within you those powers which God has given you. You alone, however, are responsible for what use you will allow your abilities to be employed. I trust that your efforts will always be directed toward the good. As a parting bit of counsel, may I just quote a line from the Old Testament: “Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth. while the evil days eonre not. nor the years draw nigh. when thou shalt say. have no pleasure in them.” You cannot live your life without God, no matter how great your success might be.
