Violet Hcritz: PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS As president of the senior clnss of 1940, I sxtend to you n hearty Welcome to these class night sxercisos. During our high school days wo have worked hard but I don't believe that any of us can sny that we have done our best. We could have put more time and work on our studios and received better grades but at times we had other things on our minds. They might have becn less important things, but that is hard to decide. There is fur more to get from a high school education than what may be obtdnod from books. There are the ect- ivitics, such as dances, parties, hikes, picnics, etc. In athletics and in associating with other students, wc lcnrnod the importance of cooperntion. We found that things didn't always go ns ve would have liked. Other peoples' opinons and edeas are of just as much vnluf as our own. We learned to give and take. Ve hnvc had msny good times and we will certainly miss them, but vo expect to find different wnvs of gaining knovlodgs and amusement. Iam sure thft there isn't sry- thlng thut fill mnko us forg et our high school days, Tonight ve will pres it to you some of the history of th class and L few of thu jvrus, along with the prosp cts f thc future.
