26 THE ROUNDUP President ' s Speech Our minds tonight are under the spell of two grejit forces: Memory and hope. Of memory, as we look back over the years now eiulcd, which have given us a portion in that student ' s life, which is like no other, and have furnished ex- ])eriences from the power of which life is too brief to free us. Of hope, as each one stands questioning his own future, like that of others in nothing save in its unanswering inscrutability. We have reached what we regard as a milo-post in our educational career, a sign of our advancement toward new op- ]:()rtunities. Heretofore we have had no responsibilities, our daily work, and duties have been mapped out for us. Xow we so out into the world to take our share in its duties, and to be held re- s] onsible for our part in its successes or failures. Without this responsibility strong character is impossible. ■ Character is power — is influence; it makes friends; creates funds; draws pa- trdiinge and support; and opens a sure WAV to wealth, honor and happiness. IJut we cannot dream ourselves into character; we must hammer and forge it for ourselves. We will find, too, that the mistakes we make in life may not so easily be remedied as those we made in school. Heretofore our errors have effected oar- selves alone. Now our lives will be closely knit with those of our fellowmen, and no failure of ours can effect us with out affecting all with whom we come in contact. We leave our High school life with high and lofty aims. During these four years the noblest ideals have been hel 1 up to us, and have left an impression o;i us that will aid in choosing our patLs in life. As we take our places beside oar fellowmen. we are expected to show by our conduct that these ideals ha , e no l)een forgotten, bat that by honest ef- fort, it is possible to make them real ities. With each one rests the responsi bility of hastening that time wlien a ' l men shall learn that noble defe t is bet ter thnu ignoble victory; when thev shill cease to employ unjust means to gain success; and when they shall cast awav ambition for nobleness.
