PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS Having been chosen, the last two years, by my fellow class- mates, as president of the Senior Class of 1948, it is my pleasure at this time to express a few thoughts in their behalf. We have come to realize throughout our school life, and, especially during the last four years, as our minds became more mature, that we are all builders. We are building a structure which we call life. Our years of school are but the first blocks, and we have tried to shape them wisely and well and to make the most of the opportunities which have been placed before us, realizing that our tomorrows, what we are and what we do, depend upon our todays and how we use them. Thoreau has told us that it is all right to build castles in the air, that that is where they should be: but, it is up to us to put the foundation under these castles. If we build today on a solid foundation we should not have to worry much for tomorrow, be- cause tomorrow will adjust itself if we are properly prepared. I do want to stress this truth that unless we build that which cannot be seen, as well and efficiently as that which can be seen, we should not have built well. Every member of the Senior Class intends to be an honor- able citizen who is respected by his fellowmeng one who fills his niche in the world to the best of his ability in order to help form a more nearly perfect society. Our God knows everything we do, just or unjust. After all we must live with ourselves, so let us, members of the Senior Class of 1948 build such a well-balanced solid structure that we shall have more abundant life. BY Robert Haas
