President’s Address At a time when the majority of the world’s people have no voice in the conduct of their governments, I be- lieve that the members of the January Class of 1939 have no greater cause for gratitude than the fact that we are citizens of a democratic nation. Very soon we shall have the opportunity and obliga- tion to take part in the affairs of this country. Upon the occasion of our graduation it is fitting that we ex- press our appreciation to the faculty of the Fordson High School who have done so much in training us for our responsibilities as citizens. They have given us sound advice, in an academic sense, but more than that, through providing us with numerous opportunities to assume responsibility, to exercise judgment, to develop initiative and resourcefulness, and by their personal example, they have done much to develop in us those qualities of cit- izenship of which our country stands in need. While we owe much to our faculty, we are not unmindful of the part the members of the Board of Education and the voters have played in supporting an institution that perpetuates the democratic ideal. Upon the Fordson High students whom we leave, we urge the need for taking even greater advantage than we have, of every opportunity for developing them- selves in all ways, so that they may with credit fill their places in this democracy.
