Since 1906 not a single case of Yellow Fever has developed on our continent. No human is perfect. Most of us in our actions and methods are very-yes-ex- tremely unsystematic.

One cannot accomplish anything for the good of humanity or for the good of himself, without the use of system. Let us use and think well of system. Let us build our lives on a foundation as the Bridge Builder. Let us use system in regard to the cultivation of our lives. Let our associates, both people and books, be the steel frame- work of our lives. Let our lives be con- trolled, as the great universe is controlled- by God. J. C. Jenkins, '32 WDW e ts: Q?

un-unnmuu:nunsununnnnnununnnnnnnnnun- LITERARY VALEDICTORY Members of the School Board, Mr. Super- intendent, Faculty, ladies and gentle- men: It is said that every rose has its thorn, every joy its under current of sorrowg cer- tain it is that the Class of 1931 finds the pleasure of achievement dimmed by the severing of school and class companion- ships. To the shortest path and the longest lane there comes an end g inevitable change brings the sad word 'farewellf We leave our school with a deep appre- ciation of the advantages it has given us. Education is capitalg by investing it wisely we may become factors in the world's pro- gress. Modern education seeks to give a three fold development and send forth students upright in character, vigorous and healthy in body, alert and trained in mind, that they may give to life the combined efforts of heart, head and hands. It is with pride that we receive our diplomas of graduation from a school that has given us this up-to-date training. We leave our school with a high regard for the dignity of labor, the toil of the hands as well as the head. All labor which tends to supply man's needs, to increase his happiness, or to elevate his nature is honor- able. Labor is the mighty magician who advances civilization through the channels of art, science, music, and inventions. It is the hope of the boys and girls of -the class of 1931 that we may join the ranks of the real workers on the field of action, for the life giving power of education was intended to fit us not for cultivated leisure, but for honorable occupation. Members of the School Board: To you we would' express our thanks for the privileges you have given us through our school, and for the courtesies extended to our class. Our school has been to us the Bank of nn----nu-nn-uns-mnvnnun-unn-nunInu1nnun-un-nnnnnn-.2 Knowledge on which we have drawn for funds. Years of the highest endeavor alone can repay the debt we owe J our Alma Mater. We give you our I. O. U. and pro- mise to repay these funds by passing on to the world the best efforts of which we are capable. Members of the Faculty: In behalf of the class of 1931 I would say that we bid you farewell with sincere regret. Your enthusiasin and kindly interest in our advancement has lightened the gloom of lessons and made classroom work a plea- sure. You have made our school mean more to us than mere walls of architectureg you have invested it with life and endowed it with the solicitous love of a real Mater. We shall ever look back with pleasure to the profitable hours We have spent under your instruction, and we hope the equipment of mind and character which you have labored faithfully to give us may be used to your honor and credit. Classmates: Though the time for fare- well is at hand and we shall meet no more as Seniors, let us not break the ties that have bound us during the happy years of work at Hodgdon High. Though we may be scattered east and west, on the prairies of the north or beneath the sunny groves of the south, let us still be loyal, devoted memlbers of the Class of 1931. Though there be a wide divergence in our thoughts and occupations, let us still be joined by the memory of these, the most joyous years of our lives. Though far from these scenes, may there never be a time when we cannot, in memory hold an reunion in our Alma Mater. Classmates, let us resolve anew amid these happy scenes, to fare forth bravely and so live that we may be proud of each other and that Hodgdon High may be proud of all of us. Let us be patriots. The young people of today hold in their hands the future of our country. There is a great need for men and women who are
