EMBERS ot the graduating class ot l94l: Never betore have I telt the need ot expressing to a graduating class ot l-loover l-ligh School the necessity ot taking upon themselves the responsibility and maturity that perhaps in 'Former years a people ot your age could have postponed. Each graduating class, as it leaves high school, has to adjust itselt to the world as it is at the time ot graduation whether it is a time ot economic depression, a period ot great industrial achievement, or a time ot great want and suttering in this country as well as in others. The youth that leaves high school today should be equipped to live a balanced lite in the tace ot social changes in our communities. A graduate will not need to spend his leisure time stupidly or accept cheap and barren amusement. l-le has learned to discriminate in the choice ot art, music. literature, and moving pictures. l-le has learned to respect the beautitul in the culture ot other lands and to conserve the natural resources ot his own country. The education pro-cess is a continuing one, however, and the excellent person is he who malces great demands upon himselt. If you have enriched your lite by the things that you have learned, your community is ready tor you and needs you. Although you may have a special service to give and are continuing your education, nevertheless, your character, your way ot lite, and your lcnowledge will be telt today by those about you. May you accept the challenge ot American Citizenship and all that it implies as you take your place in the community. Sincerely, KT M75
