J-l. A fine personality and a friendly helpful disposition make up the winning characteristics of our president. May ice always remem¬ ber his flashing smile when he relaxed at our dances as ivell as u’hcn he was pursuing his official duties. We feel we have in “Smitty” the unmistakable traits of a successful man. Dear Classmates, Our time for graduation has come at last. We are the same fellows who have gone to school here at Girard for the past ten years. It has been a school full of kindly guidance from teachers, governesses, and housemasters who have gladly sacrificed so much for us. We shall ever be indebted to them, and we shall never forget. The socials we all enjoyed so much in Allen and in Found¬ er’s will always be a glowing spark in our memories of happiness here at Girard. The hosts and hostesses on whom the success of these depended will always be the object of our thanks, especially because they helped us overcome our first dance awk¬ wardness and build up social ease. In reality Girard is telling us that school is out but not dis¬ missed. It is our duty to our Alma Mater to use ourselves in such a manner that the glory she so well deserves will be her re¬ turn. If it be necessary, we must give ourselv es to the cause which needs us most in this world of chaos. We shall always cherish the friendships that have ripened through the years and become so much a part of each one of us. And now I want you to know how much I appreciate your cooperation and help. Leading you has been an honor to which I shall always thrill when I think of you. May each one of you enjoy the happiest life possible, and may your ambitions soon be realized. Sincerely yours, CHARLES SMITH [12] ®b? fflorint ian January
