VALEDICTORY Four yor.rc ago ..on entering high’school my thoughts voro not of graduation and tho placo in which I stand tonight. To me, it was just another step in that continuous realm, through which most of us move v ithout very much consider- ation as to v hat it is all about. A high school education is looked upon with a very different attitude than ever before. It has become a necessity; in fact,just a part of every one’s existence. Without a high school education one is handicapped. A few years ago a high school educa© tion seemed to be only for those with ligh ideals or ca- reers in mind; an eighth grade education was enough for anyone. 3ut this is not the opinion of people today; in- stead, college graduation seems to be the goal But turning to th.

Our friends and neighbors are very valuable. Through them we become acquainted with all types of people. We gain from them new ideals, and new arts; we find in them happy companionships; in fact we broaden our minds in every way in this pleasing manner. Through clubs and societies wo continue to learn advances and changes in literature, art, medicines and all of the sciehccs. If we are going to kocp up with tho modern era and bo a part of it, socill activity seems to lead the way. With this air of independence wo arc ready to set sail v ith enthusiasm from a quiet harbor into a billowing sea; yet we look backward with regret because the hour of leave taking has arrived. But we are leaving with high
