To each member of the Graduating Class of 1936, I wish to express my heartiest congratulations upon your successful completion of this stage of your education. Education! What is it? There are many profound definitions of the term but this one from the pen of George Eliot, though not comolete or profound, contains much food for thought. Education consists mostly in realizing that the world is made up largely of other people. Study this statement carefully and aim to realize the truth of it in your life, by giving of yourself, in thought and deed for OTHERS, in unselfish service. Charles W. Eliot, former President of Harvard University gives us the following thought on this matter of service: The most satisfactory thing in all this earthly life is to be able to serve our fellow-beings—first those who are bound to us by ties of love: then the wider circle of fellow-townsmen, fellow-countrymen, or fellow-men. To be of service is a solid foundation for contentment in this world. My earnest wish for each of you as you leave Freeporl High School is that yours may be the joy of service. Please remember that I shall always be proud to have had the privilege of being your friend. RUTH E. COCHRAN, Vice Principal.

|hE one conspicuous and fatal lack in our time is the power to bring the mind into focus, to think hard and close, to concentrate on some problem and never give up until it is mastered. At this Commencement period, therefore, every senior may well ask himself this question: Is my mind like a blurred and confused photograph which has been taken by a camera out of focus, or have I developed the powers of concentration which enable me to bring my mind into sharp focus? A large number from your class have distinguished themselves on the athletic field. They have been able at the crucial moment to concentrate their total personality on the game. Others have had equal success in the fields of journalism, dramatics, clubs, and in the classroom. Your high school has done its best to prepare you for full, complete, and successful living. Your ability to think clearly, honestly, and persistently will in large measure determine your success in the future. That you may truly succeed is my wish for each and every member of the class of 1936. MARTIN M. MANSPERGER, Principal. Fourteen
