VHLEDICTUHU GRADUATION the day we have striven for has finally arrived We have reached our ultimate goal The goal which seemed so far away at the beginning of these four years, looms before us now in all its greatness We have struggled to see the fulfillment of our ambitxons, and the period of our lives spent here has been one of accomplishment Our courses of study have been diversified to meet the requirements of each particular group Our education here has prepared us for our chosen vocation to such a degree, that we are more assured of success Innumerable friendships have enriched our lives and mutual Joys and disappointments have bound us ln close compamonship To provlde a well rounded life various social and athletic activities have been placed at our disposal These have helped us develop not only physically but in attaining that sense of fair play and sportsmanship which is so valuable in the world today Now as the realization that we shall never return to high school suddenly comes to us, a feeling of loss pervades our spirit We are appalled by the fact that we are about to enter the world of business alone and without the helpmg hand of a parent or of a teacher Eager the path of life but we cannot soon forget that once we have left this sheltered haven, these hallowed halls, there is no reliving the past no return to these carefree school days At this time we feel it is appropriate to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who have contrived to help us make our triumph complete To our parents we give sincere thanks for the loving support which they so cheerfully have given Although at times their patience may have worn thm, they made all the sacrifice in time and money that was necessary To our Principal Mr Regan, and to the members of the faculty who have so untiringly guided us both mentally and morally, we extend in these poor inadequate words, our grate fullness It is futile for us to try to express here our gratitude for the encouragement, pa tlent mstruction, correction, and inspiration they have given us All we can do is strlve to prove by hard work and zealous effort that the seeds of knowledge they have planted in our minds will bear fruit To the many friends we have acquired during the past four years we wish to express our sincere wishes for their success in the future May we always remember the school which formed such an important part of our lives The school in which we shared countless joys and sorrows our dear Alma Mater Girls Vocational High School 22 anticipation 'Of what the future will hold, instills in us the wish to continue our journey down
