Ten Z MRS. FEINBERG Follow the golden rule: HDO unto others as you would have h ot ers do unto youu and you will never go wrong. MRS. HOLDEN Om doubts are traitors And often make us lose the good we oft might win, By fearing the attempt. It's better to taste of failure than to live in dreams of what you might have been. Do not allow simple timidity or the fear of failure to prevent you from trying to attain your goal. Face the world with confidence and courageg accept the chal- lenge and steer your course within bounds of knowledge and ability, then give it your best. Virtue is bold, and goodness never fearfulf' MR. FRIEDMAN To thine own self be true And it must follow as the night the day Thou ean'st not then be false to any man. Personal integrity, fair play, tolerance, a sense of honesty are the most important princi les b wh' h p y ic young people should be guided. We can preach and teach these precepts, but they are best learned from the examples of good living by parents for their children. 2 lt!!
