To the Class of 1912 Each year, through the pages of the Senior Annual, I have tried to express some thought that would be of value and interest to the Senior Class. To your class let me dedicate a thought of Mrs. Browning’s. She bids us beware: “Those Olympian crowns We run for, till we lose sight of the sun In the dust of the racing chariots!” In the world before you there are ever Olympian crowns to run for, there is ever strife and turmoil and perchance victory. There are ever chariot wheels—and dust. May it be your lot, as you enter these contests of life, to keep ever in view the distant and eternal sun. Most heartily yours, UNCLE MAC. —10—

To the Class of 1912 gTj' N EXTENDING to you my hearty congratulations at this, your Sli graduation time, and in wishing for each one of you the greatest suc-cess in your future life and work, I want you to remember that “The Commonwealth requires the education of the people as a safeguard to order and liberty.” Therefore, whatever work you may have to do in this great world of ours, so manage it that you may have some time to devote to the education and uplifting of others. Unless the whole people are properly educated and trained for their greatest efficiency we cannot expect our nation to solve its many perplexing problems. In return for what your city has so abundantly given to you, you should make every effort to have the community of which you may become a part, possess the very best school system that is possible, remembering that no city is ever greater than its educational system. Above and beyond the knowing and the doing of that which is best, I want each one of you to be in your heart and mind just what God would have you become. With loving remembrance, believe me ever, Your sincere friend, JOHN N. GREER.
