H Message to the Graduates U You of the graduating Class of l939 are going out into a highly transitional world. Confusion, discouragement, and conflict are everywhere. Shall your coming merely add another million to the mass of unemployed? Shall you worry away your energy in idleness and complaint? Or shall your coming mean a new stream of vitality, courage, and intelligence flowing into the currents of national life? Whether it shall mean the one or the other depends in the end upon you. Sound personal habits, disciplined minds, trained skills, and constructive citizenship will tell in the end. Determine to make the best use of your training and ability. Without a doubt, you are anxious to earn your own way and to have your part in the world's work. You cannot begin too early to observe how the world's work is done and to think of your relation to it. Do you know how to look for a job and to apply for it? Do you know how to hold a job once you find it? Have you trained yourself to get along with people, to carry out direc- tions? If you cannot find employment immediately, continue your preparation and self discipline. May your hopes and dreams be realized to the fullest degree, and in the years to come, may your names reflect credit upon your alma mater. OWQIQZ y. 'QZQWZS

ww Greetings to the Seniors III You, Class of 1939, are about to leave your high school, some to attend higher educational institutions and some to take their places in the World of industry. No matter Where we look, the future does not seem very encourag- ing, yet the World needs leaders today as it has never needed them before. What is to be done? People will expect more than you can give, you will meet the most per- plexing problems. Because of this, it is important to make use of every oppor- tunity as it presents itself. Be honest, reliable, tolerant, kind, and generous. Have courage, meet the World and its problems with head erect. Remember that the starting line is always crowded with contenders but as the race is being run the field spreads out and finally the one with the greatest amount of stamina and perseverance is the one to Win the race. Be satisfied to occupy the lowliest position but do not stay there. Conduct yourself in such a manner that you will gain the confidence of your community which will then recognize you as one of its leaders. .7-lllw J. Qllellet,
