Eli ll -Emuts ll lQIl ' resioenfs :Axoorcss Dear Classmates :- Our high school days are rapidly nearing completion. In a short time the bond which has held us together will be severed, and the activities and under- takings of the Class of '24 will come to a close. Turning back the pages of high school life, we find first of all the educa- tional benefits derived. Many of us have been prepared for higher institutions of learning, while others have been prepared for immediate occupation. But no matter what line of work we intend to follow, high school certainly has been of the greatest benefit to us. Preparation for onc's future is necessary in this age, and high school furnishes the medium for a foundation. In all high school activities we have found both pleasure and profit. Ath- letics and school organizations of all kinds have led to a better co-operation and a closer union of the high school body. Then too, the friendships we have formed certainly have been and we hope will continue to be of great value to us. Friends we know well in high school days are often friends of the future. Often and often, in the days to come, our minds will travel back to each other and we will feel ourselves still banded together in the ties of kindred thought and purpose. But benefits derived are but materials for future progress. Graduation from high school is but a stepping stone in our climb. We shall have numer- ous difficulties to overcome in future life, and when the test comes may we be fit to Climb tho' the Rocks be Rugged. At our age the climb has just begun. Some of us are starting to shift for ourselves. Our progress and the height we attain will depend upon the manner in which we climb. When an obstacle is evaded, progress is hinderedg but when met and overcome, the climb is easier. May the benefits of high school be a staff to aid us over the rough places in our pathway. But to Whom are we indebted for the benefits derived from high school? Certainly our parents and teachers are deserving of the major portion of our gratitude. VVe are also grateful to the general public which has helped to make our education possible. In measure of compensation, our only aim should be the showing of this appreciation in the manner in which we treat the future. In making compensation, may it be in the betterment of the community, and progress in our several lines of endeavor. I am sure the members of the class join with me in expressing our sincere gratitude and appreciation especially to Miss Katherine E. Newberg. As our class advisor, for two consecutive years she has been ever loyal in guiding us as one who was truly interested in our welfare, and the success of the Class of f24 has been achieved largely through her untiring efforts. Sincerely, GARRETT O. EKWALL.
