The characters actually seemed to live. Loretta Muehlbauer, as Judy, the heroine, was very appealing and someone remarlcerl after the performance, 'She sure can act. lilroy Isaacson took the title role and he made the part of the man who was hoth Daddy and lover seem very real. Helen XSarg'ent, as Miss l ritchard,', was a very sweet old lady who acted as a Sort of goflmetween for Dafldy and 'fludyf' The part of flimmie Macl!rimle , a wealthy college man, was taken hy Roy Blume. 'Sallie lXlacl3ricle was one of those nice'l girls whom you would want for a friend and Margaret Manx played Sallie-'s part very well. Mary O'Minsky was 'flulia Pendletonu, a yery engaging little flapper who thought rather too much of herself. There were many other characters, all of them wonderfully well done and it would Fill many pages to sing' their praises. Again we may take our hats oft to Miss Graves.

As a senior, he walks around with a stack of books under his arm and tries to look intelligent. I know it all -this is his motto, but he will soon discover that even a Congressman knows more than he does. Paul Johnson The Path of Success Success is like a bright and shining goal at the end of a steep and rugged path. We cannot reach the goal without climbing, and we cannot climb without falling. Hence, if we would succeed, we must rise when we fall, for a successful person is one who has risen once more than he has fallen. Vile, the untried youth of America, are about to start on our journey to suc- cess. Are we well educated? Have we specialized in the branch of work for which we are best fitted. Are we thoroughly efficient in the profession which we haven chosen? Are we physically fit? Are we morally strong? If not, we had better larry a while longer, for he who travels the path of success must be pre- pared. Health, character, and education form the frame-work for our hall of fame. But a frame-work of preparation alone, will not shelter our ambitions from the storms of adversity which we shall encounter in striving for success. In order to succeed, we must be confident of victory. Let us set our eyes on our goal and have faith in our ability to reach it. Let us see ourselves actually filling the position we intend to fill. Let us disregard any thought of failure. If we think success, dream success and anticipate success, we shall realize success. In striving for success we shall come in contact with two forces, namely, op- portunity and failure. If we are prepared, opportunity will aid us, if we are un- prepared, failure will overcome us. Opportunities are as numerous as the stars in the heavens, but we cannot grasp them unless we are prepared. What is to prevent us from inventing a machine which will lighten the work of a million laboring men? Vlfhat is to prevent us from writing a book which will bring cheer to the hearts of the entire world? Opportunities are innumerable. God put them on earth in order that man might succeed. Failures, like opportunities, must be contended with before we achieve suc- cess. If met in the right way, they are valuable experiences which will aid us in the struggle for success. Failure is only Fate's method of preventing the weak from succeeding. If we are knocked down, we must get up and re- sume the fight. Success comes after many years of painful defeat, tedious labor and concentrated effort. James VVhitcomb Riley worked on one story twenty years before he could get a certain magazine to accept it. The world will always make way for the man who is determined to succeed despite failure. To the young people of America, I dedicate my closing thoughts. We are living in the land and age of opportunity. Europe is contented with the learning of the past, America has yet to produce her greatest literature, her greatest art and her greatest men. This is our task. Towards us the eyes of the world are bentg to us our native land offers the helping hand of opportunityg to us success beckons at every turn. Success is ours for the striving. Today is the day of op- portunity, today is the day for action. Forward, O youth of America, forward as opportunity offers. Paul fohnson Edilofs Note: This is the speech with which Paul Johnson won honors in the district and state contests. Thirteen
