Valedictory Address Friends: The hour has come when we, the Seniors of Chatham High School, will pass from our sheltered school days into the hands of the cold, demanding world. Yet, we have not reached the end, but only the beginning of our lives. When we look back upon our school days, we heave a sigh of regret - regret that we will no longer be a part of Chatham High School and no longer engage in her act- tivities. Still, we should and do look forward to the future - there is a place for us to attain in this world. Our knees may shake a little and our confidences may waver, but we can reach it. Let us look for a moment at our class motto. ‘‘The Word American Ends In ‘I Can'.’’ Yes, we can and will succeed in this life. Sometimes this has been hard to believe. 1 know that most of us, when we first started in school, felt that we could never reach graduation. However, we kept poing year after year and now we have finally reached that long ago seemingly impossible goal - grad- uation. Fach year we learned more and more how much “I can ’ really meant in finally accomplishing our various tasks. Fach one of us can with a little work, thought, and action. To sum this up, I'd like to quote an old proverb. ‘‘Sow a thought, - reap an action; Sow an action, - reap a habit; Sow a habit, - reap a character; Sow a character, - reap a destiny. It is up to us to sow and reap our destinies. If we did things well while in school, we will do them well now that we're graduates. We could not hope that a slip- shod attitude in school would produce in us specialists upon graduation, for ‘’as we sow, so shall we reap.’’ Before we have had parents and teachers to see to it that we did what we were supposed to do when we were supposed to do it. Now we will be on our own. If we have sowed the seeds of thought and initiative while in school, we will reap the harvest of honor and success as graduates. True, we may suffer many disappointments and many reversals before we find what it is that we really want and really can do. We owe a lot to our Alma Mater, and we will miss her, too. Still, we are not being forsaken, but we have just been prepared to live our lives to their fullest and happiest extent. It is with this thought in mind that we pass this evening from the end of school into the beginning of life. Ruth Smith
