PrincipaPs Column OYS and girls of the Senior Class, you are about to round out four very important years of your life. Soon you will receive your diplomas, and your high school careers will become a part of the unchang¬ ing past. You will cease to be immature and irresponsible school boys and girls and will become young men and young women who must face life’s sterner problems. While it may be “a time for memory and for tears,” it should also be the occasion for some serious reflection on your part. Whether you spend four, or eight, or a dozen more years in school, or whether you spend none, certain fundamental at¬ titudes toward life should have been formed during these four years. You should recognize the fact that you are at the begin¬ ning and not the end of the long quest for knowledge. The school exercises that mark this occasion are appropriately called “Commencement.” The textbooks you have studied are but keys to the vast storehouses of knowledge. Your teachers have shown you how to use these keys, and it is now your duty and privilege to take from these store¬ houses whatever can be of service to you. You should have acquired an open mind. Too many of us let the doors of our thinking close when the doors of the school house close behind us for the last time. Never make a final decision on any question until you are sure that all evidence on both sides is in. Above all, you should not be afraid to face about from any stand you may have taken. Some one has said that “Only fools and the dead never change their minds.” You should have learned to accept responsibility with¬ out complaint or fear. If you have applied the principles th at have been inculcated, you should be willing to accept the consequences of any such action. Finally, you should go out from your school with a firm determination that you will serve your fellowman to the very best of your ability. Society needs your training in co¬ operative effort. If you are not unwilling to live unto your¬ self, even if it were possible for you to do so, then you have not learned the lessons in school that you should have. — 20 —
