PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE TO GRADUATES Just twenty years ago the first class graduated from this school, which had been organ- ized six months previously as one of the first four Junior High Schools in the world. That pioneer class of June, 1911, numbering twelve boys and thirty-six girls, has been followed every June and December through the intervening years by other groups of boys and girls, until your class is the fortieth to complete the course. When your two hundred fifteeen names are added to the roll on June fourth, the number of graduates will have reached a grand total of four thousand three hundred three. It is a goodly company of which you are about to become a part. We are proud of the records and achievements of the graduates of the earlier years. Most of them are honorably and satisfactorily filling their places in the great scheme of life. Many have already reached distinction in their chosen fields of endeavor. The graduates of later years, too, are seeking the high way of life. A young man who six years ago was President of the Garfield Student Association has just been elected Presi- dent of the Associated Students of the University of California, an organization which numbers ten thousand members. Another Garfield graduate ranked second highest in the great class of two thousand six hundred seventy-nine members recently awarded degrees at the same University. These are but two of the hundreds and thousands who are moving steadily onward to honorable goals in college, and business, and industry. As the members of the June class of 1931 leave the portals of Garfield, we wish that each might take as his life ' s ideals the words that have inspired so many of those that have gone before you, the words inscribed upon the walls of our beautiful court: Labor, Learning, Responsibility, Reverence, Courage, Integrity, Vision, Service. With these ideals you may well hope to attain that personal success to which all ambi- tious young people aspire, and you are sure, too, to make the world a better place for your having lived in it. Choose wisely; live right; never lower your standards. At the threshold of life, where you are standing: To every man there openeth But to every man there openeth A High Way and a low — A High Way and a low; And the High Soul climbs the High Way, And every man decideth And the low soul gropes in the low; The way his soul shall go. And in between on the misty flats Q L Hennessey. The rest drift to and fro.
