TO Tl-IE CLASS CDF l935 Your entrance into the high school some years ago marked a significant milestone in your personal achievement. Again, and more seriously, you have met obstacles, accepted oppor- tunities, and gained accomplishment. Now you have come to another signpost marking the way of life. Many things have changed since you started to school that first day years ago. You, too, have changed and have come into the fulness of young manhood and womanhood. People will say that you face a world more difficult than ever before, but that has always been said. Whether it be true or no is not nearly so important as the question of your readiness for what- ever difficulties there are. None of you will wish to say with the dour and disillusioned young Dane: The Time is out of joint: O cursed spite, That ever I was born to set it right, but rather you will wish to affirm with the brilliant young poet of a later and a more difficult day: Now God be thanked, who hath matched us with this hour. Personally, I think young people have never before been as well equipped to meet the obstacles that lie ahead as are you, the members of this class. The real zest of 'life is the meeting head-on of various and bewildering problems. Small fun, indeed, if the solutions were too- easily arrived at. Your forefathers conquered a wilderness of elements and things, and now you are challenged, perhaps, by a wilderness of ideas. Youth has never admitted cowardice or accepted defeat. You, too, have within you the courage and the faith of the pioneers and you, too, will win new frontiers for yourselves and the world you are Much regret it is to me that the job and the total number of class tensive as to forbid the privilege each of you. Never-the-less, I have individual development with far to live in. exigencies of a demanding members have been so ex- of close acquaintance with watched your collective and more solicitation than you may have realized. Many of you have timidly entered, perhaps, but joyfully exited, we trust, through the open office door. What you have done as individuals, as groups, as a collec- tive entity, in classrooms, on our platforms, stage, gymnasium, or athletic field has become a significant part of the enduring history of E. T. H. S. Now, we hope, too, that you have caught here inspiration that will give you courage to face difficulties: mental power that will direct your energies to helpful purposes: and abiding faith in the essential rightness of a developing mankind. f AAMQQ, ii.
