A Q.. LEAVITT ANGELUS 15 l LITERALT E SALUTATORY Trustees. members of the school board, teachers, alumni, parents, friends and schoolmates, we, the class of 1946, extend to you a most hearty welcome to our graduation exercises today. As many of you realize from your own experience, this is a, very impor: tant day in our lives. Many of us will be entering a life altogether different from the one we've known at school. From now on our lives will be what we make them. We should set a lloal in our minds and in later years strive to reach that goal. Although many of us never reach it, we still shall have gained by it. Better to strive and climb And never reach the goal Than to drift along with time An aimless, worthless soul. Aye, better to climb and fall Or sow, though the yield is small, Than to throw away day after day And never strive at all. Soon we shall have a big decision to make: What we plan to make our future work. There are many things in this world to choose from. Among the boys, many will he go- ing into the armed forces. Although the war is over, there is still a great need for many more boys. Besides the good training one receives there, one is also given a chance to see the country. Others may choose to work on farms.Thisis also a very important work. In spite of the fact that many people in the city make fun of farms and the country hicks . we know that if it were not for farmers, the poor city people might go hungry! And then again some of the boys may be planning to obtain more edu- cation in some school or college. Many of the girls will be continu- ing their education in either college or business school. Some may plan to be nurses: some, teachers: and a few are probably planning to get married soon. . Life means something different to everyoneg as this poem states very well: To the preacher life is a sermon To the joker it is a jest To the miser life is money To the loafer life is rest.. To the lawyer life is a trialg To the poet lifes a song To the doctor,life's a patient That needs treatment right along. To the soldier life's a battle: To the teacher. lifes a school Life's a good thing to the grafter l't's a failure to the flool. To the man upon the engine LiDe's a long and heavy gradeg l't's a gamble to'the gamtbler To the merchant life is trade. Life is but a long vacation To the man who loves his work: Life's an everlasting effort To shun duty, to the shirk. To the earnest Christian Worker Life's a story e-ver new Life is what we try to malke it Brother, what is life to you? No matter how hard the decisions are that we are called upon to make. I'm sure, through the help given us bv our teachers and parents, we'll be able to make wise decisions.
