“The happiness of your life depends upon the character of your thoughts.”—Marcus Aurelius Farewell to Seniors 111 but a few weeks you will be entering a new period in life. High school days, with all their friends and associa- tions, which you have so long taken for granted, will be a thing of the past. Numerous problems constantly present themselves. The spirit in which you meet and solve the initial ones will be the dominating factor in determining results. Set out with some definite purpose in view, then accomplish that end. Remember, it’s the fellow with determ- ination that wins. Were I asked what other fundamentals enter into a successful life, I would say first of all, integrity. Be honest with yourself and all will be well with the world. Loyalty to your employers, fidelity to friends, for, “He who would have a friend, must be a friend,” punctuality, and earnest, painstaking efforts are indispenable essentials. All these last four years as a faculty, we have, collec- tively and individually, tried our best to strengthen, guide, and help you that you may find your rightful places in the world. This is the goal for which we have been working. May you make it successfully, recalling always the truth expressed in the lines: “Give to the world the best that you have and the best will come back to you.” Page Nine Marion R. Bowman.
