JAMMCA HIGH SCHOOL CLASS ADVISERS To the Class of January 1937: You have my best wishes for your future success. Perhaps I should tell you of the golden opportunities that await you upon graduation, or explain why you should be instantly alert to take active part in helping to construct our new social and economic order. But I leave this to the commencement speakers. I would have you adopt a philosophy of life. Write it down, examine it, revise it and contemplate its true meaning. The least this will do for you will be to enrich your intellectual imagination, and diminish the cocksureness which closes the mind against serious thought. Sincerely, Louis JAHELKA, Senior Class Adviser. Dear Graduates, It has been a real pleasure to me to be your Grade Adviser, and thus to have shared the enthusiasm of your successes, as well as the disappointment of your failure. There will be both in store for you in your future life, you will find. As a message to you all, I should like to quote the lines you have seen on my desk- L'Four things a man must learn to do If he would make his record trueg To think without confusion, clearly, To love his fellow men, sincerelyg To act from honest motives, purely, To trust in God and Heaven, securely. If High School has strengthened you in some or all of these essenf tials, it has done well by you. Your friend, JOSEPHINE D. WILKIN, l g Senior Class Adviser. T To Graduates of January 1937: What will you remember about jamaica High School? Will it be the beautiful location, the bronze doors, the crowded halls? Will it be the clubs and games? The Latin or History mastered and enjoyed? Or will it be the inspiration given by some teacher or fellow student who started you thinking and stirred your ambition? If you have courage and an open mind you will have a chance to help make this a better world. Our best wishes go with you. Sincerely, MABEL Louisa BERNHARD, I e , Dean of Girls. . . . seven

SENIOR YEAR BOOK CLASS SPONSORS Dear Seniors: Messages from sponsors must, of necessity follow a pattern, and my message to you is the same as many other sponsors have written- yet, my feeling for you is no less warm, and my regret at seeing you leave no less real. If I could leave with you one other impression besides my sincere affection for your class, it would be this. In all the things you do, in all the causes you adopt, in all the friends you make, strive for a proper sense of proportion-that fundamentals will not be lost in a maze of trivialities, or friendships swept away in the heat of a moment. I wish each of you success in the tasks you undertake. I know that if you bring to them the same enthusiasm and energy which has characterized you here, you cannot fail. Sincerely yours, MARY CLAIRE CALLAN, Senior Class Sponsor. My Dear Young Friends: You have honored me greatly by choosing me as your sponsor. Having been a Mathematics teacher-more accustomed to the use of symbols than of words-A--for some eighty years fmore or lessl, it is very diflicult for me to express my appreciation of this honor and my good wishes for your future. I feel very deeply this appref ciation, however, and my good wishes are most sincere. I do hope that each of you will enjoy life to the fullest extent. In order to accomplish this, I advise that you be tolerant, of your associates, seek opportunities in which you may be helpful to others, and always guard against your own selfishness. Most cordially yours, ARTHUR J. BARRETT. Senior Class Sponsor. Dear Friends: It has been a distinct pleasure to work with you this term because of the hearty and intelligent cooperation I have received from all the chairmen and the members of committees. I trust you will continue in this spirit, for only when all put their y shoulders to the wheel can we accomplish anything worth while. One little thought, I leave with you. When things look bad and your dreams of success seem hardly attainable, remember the words of Browning: i'What I aspired to be, And was not, comforts me. Farewell, but not Goodbye. I'I.-XROLD A. BROWN, Senior Advisor, - six..
