 17 nnimimiimmii] The Class of January, 1917 Fellow Classmates: Captain Kidd’s pirate gold can never be found, unless one could know the key or code with which to locate it. Similarly the golden treasures of life—fame, riches, great place, happiness—can never he attained by us, unless we possess the key to their stronghold. What is this key? Older people tell us it is hard work, directed by a trained mind with a good foundation to build upon. Our parents sent us to Central to build that foundation and to train our minds. We are grateful to them for it; and we thank the faculty also for their assistance to us. For our share we have tried our best. You will remember that our class motto is “To know, to do. to he. As we leave Central let’s not leave the motto. We’ll always strive to know, to do, and to be. Your President, Mark Severance. 21
