“Press bravely onward!—not in vain Your generous trust in humankind: The good which bloodshed could not gain Your peaceful zeal shall find.” —Whittier J. WALLACE SANER, B.S., M.A. PRINCIPAL DIRECTORS Accept my sincere congratulations upon your high school graduation. Many of you 1 knew in the Walnut Street School; others of you 1 had the pleasure of working with in the Junior High School; all of you 1 have watched this year as you passed in the halls, engaged in your class activities, and did your pari in creating a fine spirit about the school. As you leave the more or less cloistered life of the schoolroom and go out to meet the problems of the recent graduate, I would offer one hit of advice LEAR TO GET ALONG WITH OTHERS. The inability to get along with people is the chief cause of many personal failures in the shop, in the office, in the armed services, in the college, in the home. Regardless of the amount of ability and training you possess, if you become the social “sore spot”, life can be most unpleasant at best. If all of you realize your own faults and learn not to expect perfection in others, you will be on the road to success in human relations. It is my hope that you can develop in your heart a deep sense of kindliness and sympathy for the other fellow; thus bringing happiness to yourself and to vour associates. Success to each one of you in your future undertaking. Sincerely, Kl) ARI) R. DEERY. B.S., M.S.Ed SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS 10
