A MESSAGE TO THE GRADUATING CLASS OF 1942 The heroes of Bataan and Corregidor fought around the clock and set patterns in loyalty and devotion never excelled in the history of man. American industry works in shop and mill and mine, at forge and lathe and furnace, in shifts of manpower that “keeps ’em rolling.” America is awake! America is on the march! It will not be too late! We are crowding hours into minutes and stout hearts are beating the march to victory. The poet has told us that: We live in deeds, not years; in thoughts, not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count tim • by heart-throbs. Into each hour America must con rontrate an eternity of deeds, an immensity of thought and feelings. We are liv- ing in action and in feelings while the stars measure time for us. We may rejoice that it is our privilege to forget the hour and to think only of accomplishments, to scorn the figures or. the dial as we embrace each sacred impulse to sacrifice. Colin P. Kelly lives forever in his deeds of valor and in the hearts of his countrymen. Brief though his span of years, he achieved an eternity of living. Heart-throbs of Americans measure time for him, and the figures on the dial are forgotten. The heroism of the defenders of Bataan, the fortitude f unsung pa riots who toil in obscurity, the toughness of fib:r cf your pioneer forebears—these treasures are your priceless heritage. You are equal to the challenge of the hour. No task will be too difficult for you, no sacrifice will be too great. You are ready and willing, for you be- lieve with all your fine young hearts that in this hour of wotli crisis, our beloved America is an instrument in the hands of God. Paul R. Taylor Superintendent of Schools
