18 HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL difficulties. To-day we stand on the threshold ready to enter the new world. Agai11 on looking back over our school life, our glad days dispel all our misgivings. Look at the rewa.rd, the opportunities, the possibilities. Great are the advantages that are afforded in this, our free country. Let us be thankful for the national policy and the connnunity spirit that has afforded ns this encouragement and provided these facilities. 2 4 The word commencement does not mean that we are finishing a certain work, but rather, it means that we are beginning a new work. The world we are entering will be different. It will be a change from our usual course. The time is now at hand when it is necessary for us to part, but the ties of friendship we have formed as a class we defy either time or circumstance to sever. Now our duties are individual, heretofore they were somewhat collective as a body, but we are pre- pared and let us face life boldly. Probably some of us will enter a higher school of training, others will take up life's work. 1Vhatever the course, we pursue it as the duty of ea.ch of us to accomplish some- thing which will be a credit to us and to our school. God demands that we do our best. So may each one looking forward through the years, labor ever onward, unharmed by doubts and fears. And no matter what our work, may we thoughtfully hold steadfast to the ideal of King Arthur and his knights: Reverence the king, as if he were our conscience, And our conscience as our king. To break the heathen and uphold the Christ, To ride abroad redressing human wrong, To speak no slander, no, nor listen to it, To honor our own word as if God's, To lead sweet lives in purest chastityf' Soon we will have passed over the threshhold which lies between our school life and our world life. But in all cases remember the motto which we as a class have adopted, lVer fest auf S9i116 Sinne beharrt der bildet die 1Velt sich. He who holds firmly to his purpose fash- ions the world as he will. Again friends let me, in the name of the class of 1911, welcome you to this, our connnenceinent. CARL LENNERTZ.
