Salutatory Parents, Schoolmates and Friends: The class of ’21 welcome you to the exercises of its one great day, the sixteenth of June. Tonight we have reached the goal for which we have been striving during these four years. We can now recall many pleasant memories as we look back upon these happy years spent in high school. Hut it is to the- citizens of this town, our parents, and teachers that we owe our gratitude for these high school privileges. You have been interested in our welfare and have brought it about that Colon should have a High School of this standard. It is through the splendid building and equipment of our school, the sacrifices of our parents, and the patience of our teachers that we have attained this goal. Hut there are many other goals for us to reach. Today may mean much in the making of our life’s career. We do not know where the influence of today may end.

As Dr. Trumbull says, “Today is, for all we know, the opportunity and occassion of our lives. On what we do or say today may depend the success and completeness of our entire life struggle.” So may we make the most of this day that every day following may be the best. Wo cannot always think of the past or the present. The future now faces us in a different way than ever before. Some of us will have the privilege of attending college, while for others this may be our last day of school work.

On every hand there are gates awaiting only the touch of an earnest young person. The chance is ours. Our higher education may come through books, travel, or the acquaintance of well-informed and thoughtful men and women. If we are persistent in obtaining the fullest and highest education, we may never despair in realizing this ideal even if
