ffQT'Q'X5 From a clumsy wooden structure to one of Renaissance archi- tecture in marble-that is the progress the Minnesota capitol has seen in one hundred years. The first legislature of 1849 struggled to organize our territory on a firm foundation of democratic representative government. The success of a democratic society rests heavily upon an alert and educated people who are Well grounded in democratic principles and who are aware of the issues of the day. Realizing this, and in harmony with the American tradition, our early legislators pro- vided for free public schools, that the youth of this great state might avail themselves of an education so that they might better enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happinessf, . . ,.7v M , ,. ,f A,,,Trg',, . , 'k.-Wa.-W..-.... ,...,,....--.-.gp , .J A.. ,...

Page Twelve GRADUATION Step by step youlve climbed the stairs to your senior year, and then you stop and look back. You see yourself as an eager little first grader, then a second grader, and so on up through your grade school days. Somehow or other, things change when you become a freshman in high school. You're growing up and becoming an adult. You look at the majestic seniors and can hardly wait until your day comes. Then it does come. You think of all the parties, football games, dances, hockey games, and other activities that have endeared Harding to you. Perhaps you wish you were a freshman again, so that you could live your four years over. Now youlre turning another page in your life. You will be turning another when you go on to college or into the work-a-day world. You may be a teacher, a doctor, an engineer, a stenographer, or maybe work your way up in the business world. Maybe you are going to be married or any other of a dozen things. There was probably a time when you would rather have been listening to the radio than doing your homework, that essay was really something to worry about, or your social studies lesson was extra long. But all of that is forgotten on the night of nights. As you step up to receive your diploma, your emotions are a mingling of sorrow and joy, but you feel very proud. You watch your classmates step up one by one, and you feel part of some- thing that is wonderful and never to be forgotten-your graduation.
