VALEDICTORY Graduation is here at last. For twelve or thirteen years we have been learning; we have experienced happiness, sadness, enthusiasm and boredom. The use we make of this learning will determine the real value of our education. When we leave here, some will use this know¬ ledge to seek employment; others attending university will have a sound basis for higher studies. Though our high school days are gone, I hope our desire to learn does not lessen, for every day should bring new exper¬ iences that will broaden our minds. All the degees and diplomas that we might acquire would be worthless if we did not apply the knowledge thus gained to everyday life. The sad part of graduating is saying farewell to Camrose High, our friends and the school activities that have been such an important part of our life. The guidance of our teachers, the companionship of our school chums and the fun we have had together will never be for¬ gotten. To our Principal, Mr. McCleary, and to our teachers who have been so patient when we have been difficult, we express sincere thanks. They have imparted to us various phases of knowledge and have tried to prepare us for becoming useful citizens of tomorrow. To the School Board members who have kept the school run¬ ning smoothly, and to our parents who have encouraged us in our studies, we owe a great debt of gratitude. To the undergraduates who follow us, I extend best wishes for you to be a credit not only to our school but also to the community. In closing I should like to leave with you these words of John Oxenham: “To every man there openeth A way, and Ways, and a Way. And the High Soul climbs the High Way And the Low Soul gropes the Low, And in between, on the misty flats, The rest drift to and fro. But to every man there openeth A High Way and a Low, And every man decideth The way his Soul shall go.” SYLVIA ISAKSON
