'UaL6bCi0l'y .AJJPQJ5 We have come a long way since we started to school in the tirst grade. This is the time we have been looking forward to all of these years. We are indeed happy now that the time for our graduation is here. A challenging world awaits us. We are ready and eager to use our talents to help, in some small way, to solve the crucial prob- lems that face us. Some of us will go on to school tor further training. Others will take jobs im- mediately after graduation from high school. Whatever we do, we shall feel that we have been well prepared. For this, we are grateful to our teachers, parents, and the time citizens of Logan. Our teachers have been kind and patient. They have been good friends. Our parents have made many sacritices to make possible our education. The citizens of Logan have provided us with our public school facilities. As we look back, we think ot the pleasant times we have had during our school lite. We are rather sad because we cannot turn back time and relive the past. But. this is as it should be. As a representative ot the class of I947, I bid Farewell to our teachers. class- mates. and school. We must leave you, but we shall not forget you. Lite calls us on, and we cannot tarry for to improve the golden moment of opportunity and catch the good that is within our reach, is the great art ot lite. 8

Safufafory .!4J6ll'256 1 As spokesman for the class ot nineteen hundred and forty-seven, I welcome you to our commencement program. We are grateful to you for making it possible for us to have the privilege of grad- uating and we are happy to have you as our guests. We know that we are going forth into a world confronted with the gravest political and economic problems that have ever faced a nation. We also realize that we are too young and too inexperienced to otlier any constructive solution to these problems, but without the educational background that our schools have provided we would be unable to grasp the tenseness of the situation. We as members of the class of nineteen forty-seven hope to be able to do our part in carrying out the plans of world peace and international unitication that our present leaders are striving to establish. We realize that as we gain in education and experience it will be our solemn duty to strive for international peace and harmony. The key-note of all understanding is knowledge. The basic foundation of the acquisition of knowledge is education and it is to you our parents, teachers, and com- munity that we are indebted for this 'fundamental background. We are conscious that education and experience will take time and that tonight we can do no more than look toward the future with high resolutions to do our parts. To this. our commencement, we bid you welcome. 29
