LJ Ll LJ L- LJ -J -f - S ee SUCCESS The greatest thing in life is success. It is the climax of determination, the reward for sought achievement, and like the star in the heavens, it shines forever, but does not move to greet us. And since it does not do that, since it offers us no aid, it is the most honest reward. Therefore, do you wonder why it fills us with the very thrill of veneration, why it has been and still is the inspiration that has lead and is leading the worthy to fame? , The past shows us that he who has striven for the so-thought unattainable is the one who in the end will win far greater fame than he who is satisfied with attaining what he knows can be attgingd, It is a common philosophy among students in high school to believe that thev are the winners, if they can only dodge those studies which are hardest for them. Such a philosophy belongs to fools, not to those who are trying to become educated. Success is acquired only by conquering the difiicult things. Yet so many of us are prone to allow our weak emotions to silence our wills. One of Hapoleon's favorite maxims was, HThe truest wisdom is a resolute determinetion.H His was an iron will. It never quavered to petty temptations. Kings and Empires themselves were aground to dust as 3 result of one man's determination to win. Hhen told that the Alps stood in the we7 of his armies, he said, l There shall be no Alias. Ihr-ossi'ole, he said, is a word only to be found in the dictionary of fools.H Here is a case where the race is not always to the swift, nor . 'I ,

It is the application that we put forth to make our legs go that will reap the victory. You may be given a mint, a palace, a kingdom, but that is no reason that you are going to make even as great a success as the man who starts out without a penny to.his-name. Many a man has had to fight from the bottom to reach the higher steps of the ladder, The harder he has to fight, the more firm has been his success. The strifes of this world are numerous and bitter. Yet, when one reaches the top step of the ladder, shall it be nothing for him to say, WI have accomplished this by honesty, because I have been compelled to conquer by perseverancen? That mind is the conqueror, is the idea which our educational institution has sought to prove to those who are now leaving us. When anarchy rules, when war reigns and crime prevails, then there is but one means to restore peace, and that is by a system of education that shall enforce the building up of character. With the earnest desire to uphold this purpose of education, we hope that this, our organization, may stand up and say of every graduate that it sends forth into the world 'This was a man.n ' wioiwkxxvkxvkxxxavteawkxwx COi.E.-UJIICEIDIIJT Life is short, we cannot control that, but by developing our mental resources, we can make it as broad as the universe. The chief idea of education is to make the life more profitable, as well as more pleasant. We develop our mental resources, through the earnest efforts we put forth in order 'f'f -on-1'
