O west, young man --How much that can mean! When these immortal words were spoken, America wias young. Horace Greeley, to whom they were attributed, meant for young, sturdy Americans to pack their belongings and forge westward to newer land, rich: with opportunity- truly a land of opportunity . But , you say, the west has been settled by noW. Never mind! All America is full of opportunity for the young man or Woman with ambition, who wishes to pioneer into the future. Of course we do not have to contend with unsettled country, hostile Indians and Wild cmi- imals, nor to live in log cabins, and struggle for our very existence. We may, of course, find hardships. Who ever heard of a great man in any field who did not have to struggle for a start, unless he was born wealthy? We, the class of 1938, have called ourselves pioneers. Are we not the first class to graduate from this high school, and to complete three full years here? Then let us continue to be pioneers after graduation. lf we have done well in high school, we must continue to do so. I have encountered people who were exceedingly active during their high school days but who ceased almost entirely to distinguish themselves after they graduated. One might say they died young. On the other hand, if we know We have not done all we are capable of doing in high school, let's make up for this lost time. Yes, it may be hard. lt may be easier to drift along, getting nowhere. But does it make us any happier? l doubt it. The prophet loel said, Your young men shall see visions. Are these visions going to be mere dreams, or will we make something of them? lt is up to us.
