It is a great privilege and pleasure to welcome you all here this afternoon to our Commencement exercises. We cannot express in the word welcome our sincere appreciation of your interest in us which has brought you here this afternoon. We trust that you will feel the depth of its meaning as we proceed with the program. In trying to find Words to express our hearty welcome, something comes to me of what Tennyson had in his heart when he wrote, I would that my tongue could utter the thoughts that arise in me. Let us consider for a moment the real meaning of this little word welcome , It represents well come . So this afternoon, we hope that you are well, We see that you have come, and we know that you are welcome. Dear parents and friends, we feel a thrilling joy to have you with us today for We are deeply grateful for your support and loyalty which has given us courage and confidence to overcome the obstacles which have impeded our progress. To us it is a most important period, it is one of the large stepping stones to success, and its memories will remain with us. Whatever institutions of learning from which we may graduate in later years, none will have the lasting impression that this, our graduation from Lincoln High School, will have. After today we go forth to take our places in the great world. Dear relatives, who have come, perhaps long distances, especially to see our graduation, we bid you a hearty welcome. We appreciate your coming and hope that none of you will be disappointed in our efforts this afternoon. It gives us new courage and vigor not only to proceed with this program but to enter into the great program of life. Teachers: In behalf of the Class of 1941, we bid you welcome. We appreciate the many hours you have spent in trying to impart to us such knowledge as will be necessary for us in our future life and for the patience you have shown and for your encouragement which has helped us in our difficulties. Superintendent and members of the School Boardg We salute you. All these four years we have had this goal in view, and we realize that it has been through your efforts and support that we have been able to obtain this height. We wish to show our appreciation for holding our school to a high standard. Schoolmates: Today is the last time we shall meet as schoolmates. This is the last hour of our school life. And now in the behalf of the Class of 1941 let me again welcome you. A. G. .. :- .1-. Z 'F'1Tl fi.

Perhaps the most stupendous piece of work that has been done in America was the building of the Panama Canal, and of all the stories in the world there are few more enthralling than this. One chapter in this tale tells of man's struggles against two deadly enemies--the Anopheles mosquito which carries the Parasitie that causes Malaria, and the Stegomyia mosquito, the carrier of Yellow Fever. For thousands of years these insects had helped to keep two oceans apart, but at last America beat them, and linked the Pacific with the Atlantic by means of a Canal. Now giant steamships climb a water stairway over the intervening mountains. After the discovery of gold in California in 1849, an American Company built a railroad across the Isthmus. Passengers gladly paid 3525 fare to shorten their sea voyage, and even today, after the construction of the Canal, this railroad -- relocated and rebuilt -- is still of considerable im- portance. Until a few years ago, the kings of Panama were Stegomyia and Anopheles , who had no thrones or gold but held the power of life or death over every person on the Isthmus. For generation after generation they consumed the life blood of the people who lived in this strategic region. Americans have dug the Panama Canal because they profited by the mistakes of Frenchmen who tried and failed. Let us remember their pre- decessors, brave men who faced the disease and death before science had placed in their hands the key to victory. And so this went on for generations, until the great French bacterio- logist, Louis Pasteur -- first set men searching for the invisable enemies of Death at Panama. What Louis Pasteur found was this: Man has against him in his March of Conquest Myriads of smaller creatures which, often before he knows it, poison him and may destroy him. Sometimes these creatures live on a mans body, so that even a harmless insect may carry a poisonous parasite and give it to a man with its sting. This great discovery of Pasteur, if had been made a little while before, would perhaps have saved the lives of all those French- men who died in digging the Canal. The task which the United States had assumed was to cut the two continents in two at the narrow point and let the worlds' ships sail through. It was an army who did the work. Our Regular Army to whom we so often turn to do great tasks Without fear, Flattery or favor. , ' I N ' ,.,-fwl3ff'iFE7i:3- ,wwwmt ,MP M. . -, 5 Q-.. 4' ' r, 5--X , : ,lg ' Y . 'S .
