To the Graduates of Central High Ichoolz Your schooling in Central High School is about to end. but your education is just beginning. From each and every experience throughout life you should be- come better educated. If you have learned in school to give some thought to your problems before determining your course of action, to be decent and honorable in your dealings with all people, to hold your pleasures always under control, and to be unspoiled by your suc- cesses, in the opinion of Socrates you are well started on the way toward becoming educated. Be assured that your achievements will always bring happiness to your teachers who have tried to inspire and guide your edu- cational growth and to your parents who have always been willing to make any sacrifice to give to you both schooling and an education. If you will but be true to yourself, to your best thoughts, ambitions, and feelings, in all your educational efforts, yours will be an educa- tion of which you need not be ashamed. May every success attend you in your effort to obtain a worthwhile education. ' Sincerely, J. R. Holmes Superintendent City Schools To All the Members of Our School Community: It is my wish for us, that we may, Know the truth and that we may find our way to freedom in that knowledge. In the changing world in which we live, may we have the prudence to Prove all things and hold fast to that which is good. May we find happiness in service. May the opportunity, and the zeal, be ours to spend our lives in useful work. May our influence in the world be always for good to the end, that ours may be a better world. May we fully realize and act upon the realization that education is the final safeguard of civilization and society. I consider it a great privilege to serve a group who so cheerfully and effectively use the opportunity of self-improvement which is theirs. May we always con- tinue to grow. Yours sincerely, L. M.
