Presidents Address He Can who Thinks He Can Y the adoption of this. our motto, we as a class, hav-- fultilled somethin: more than mere tradition, we have set up for ourselves a guiding principle t'or life. As such. now at Commencement, it should mean much to us. Having completed our four years of high school work, we cannot fail but note a marked improvement in both ourselves and our classmates. What has here been accomplished will serve as a foundation for the future. For some the cement contains more water than for others, but for all an auspicious future may exist. Hence forward it may be said that our des- tiny rests entirely in our own hands. It matters not whether we do or do not continue our scholastic education, it will be just what we make it, we can get no more from it than we put into it. Guided by our chosen motto, we can never admit de- feat, nor lose faith. XVe realize that we are to meet obstacles, and many of them, but every hardship will only spur us on to greater effort. If success in any undertaking: were always easy to gain there would never be cause for one to exert his best efforts. There are no insurmountable obstacles. Let us remember that it is the battle scarred veteran who wears the medals. To insure rapid advancement, there are two things which seem essential, first, to sharply discriminate between capability and performance, realizing that the former is worth- less Without the latterg secondly, to aim high, never lower than ones ability. However our ambitions must not be chim- erical but practical and within our reach. In this age every year seems a climax to the situation. However, I firmly be- lieve that never before was diligent, practical industry and in- itiative in :greater need than in this present period of economic depression. It is exceedinuly fitting and proper that I here, in behalf of the Class, 'fr-:press our Zenuine uratitude to those who have faithfully :uided us to this lom: awaited time of commence- ment and I v.'i.slfi to them the best, of fortune in their unenviable task. As a class, we realize that we have been far from flawless wupon reflection, wt, are now in a position to appreciate fully the value of united etlort. Nevertheless, we hope and trust that others as well as ourselves, have eained by our imperfec- tion and thus, in some degree, has it been compensated. In parting may we, as loyal members, always proudly associate ourselves with the Class of '21 and hold as an incentive- I-Ie can who thinks he can. 25405 H i
