I vI ' v s Superintendent s Message: TO THE CLASS OF 1939: Friendship is about the most beautiful thing in life. Like salvation, it is free, yet can not be obtained without effort. If you wish to win and hold friends, be friendly, Like people, and they will like you, Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you. We should think less of self and more of others. Sympathetic human interest is the es- sential thing in being friendly. It is that which makes the truly friendly draw to them a host of friends, so that rich or poor, educated or un' educated. they are never depressed with that most appalling of all feelings, that of being quite alone in the world. If you wish people to like you, develop a happy, cheerful disposition Look cheerful, re' gardless of how you feel. Laugh and the world laughs with youg weep and you weep alone. Happiness is a precious byfproduct of friend' ship and service. The surest recipe for happiness is to make someone else happy, Apply the Golden Rule, and you will have a host of friends. Now, may l leave with you, my friends of the Class of '39, my motto: HI expect to pass through this world but once. Any good work, therefore, any kindness or any service l can render to any soul of man or animal, let me do it now! Let me not neglect it, for l shall not pass this vvay again. Slllx't'lL'ly yours. R.

Set your goal high, then map a course to at' tain that goal. Prepare yourselves for an active and constructive part as appreciative citizens in this democracy of ours.
