A FINAL WORD IT becomes my pleasanT Task To say a Tew words abouT The class oT I936 and iTs Hixonian. The class numerically is The IargesT ThaT The Hicksville Public School SysTem has ever graduaTed. The sTudenTs have worked long and hard To issue an- oTher Hixonian Tor Their own pleasure and proTiT and ThaT oT The communiTy as well. IT is no sIighT underTaking and iT requires no small amounT oT Team work To do The same. For The lasT TwenTy years There has been no break in The issuing oT The Hix- onians and The presenT class was deTer- mined ThaT iT would carry on in I936 iusT as iT was carried on in I9I6. which only proves again ThaT There is a Hicksville High School spiriT and ThaT spiriT is as alive Today as iT was TwenTy years ago. WiTh- ouT hope, wiThouT ThaT spiriT, no class is worhy oT iTs name. Now ThaT iTs High School days are a memory and This annual is prinTed, iT is The belieT oT The TaculTy oT The Hicksville Public School ThaT The class oT I936 will carry on inTo liTe many oT The Things iT has learned in The class room and in exTra curricular acTiviTies. Some Times These lessons have come easily and again They have been learned wiTh diTTicuITy, which is True oT IiTe iTseIT. We are Told ThaT we should noT ask ThaT liTe be all a pleasanT road buf ThaT we learn much in darker momenTs. Possibly some ciTizens and even some sTudenTs Themselves have quesTioned The 23 value oT such a book as This one is. How- ever, as The years go on iT will serve as a pleasanT and concreTe reminder oT Twelve years oT work, oT human endeavor by TiTTy odd sTudenTs in The springTime oT IiTe. IT is a common and True saying ThaT The school room is a microcosm, a miniaTure world iT inseIT. IT This be True, Then The misTakes made here may possibly be re- TIecTed in liTe, buT IeT me hasTen To say ThaT The TriumphanTs experienced here also become TriumphanTs in liTe. Every graduaTe oT The Hicksville Public High School who analyzes his memory careTuIIy enough will recall ThaT The school room has iTs deTeaTs and iTs TriumphanTs equal To many oT Those experienced Iarer in IiTe. On This, The CenTenniaI year oT Hicks- viIle's Tounding one cannoT buT help To have The Teeling ThaT our graduaTes who sTep TorTh This year inTo The wide world will be charged wih a greaT responsibiIiTy, ThaT oT helping To make Hicksville's second hundred years even more noble Than iTs TirsT. The ThoughT comes To one's mind ThaT in aTTempTing To do This, each and every member oT The class oT nineTeen hundred and ThirTy-six will have To Take wiTh him a greaT amounT oT ambiTion, hon- esTy, and ChrisTian spiriT, The kind ThaT TransIaTes iTseIT inTo public service. Those who have Travelled The road These gradu- aTes musT Take know ThaT iT is only ac- complished by one word WORK, GEO. A. PATTERSON. T H E H I X O N IA N
