i it 1 uasm Giaude JE. Ghappelaam, .'20JLfL6'Ll:f'Lf6fLd6f'Lf We congratulate you upon completion of your twelve years training in our public schools. To succeed in school you have had to please a small group of teachers, who for the most part were highly sympathetic and ever ready to give you the benefit of each doubt. Your tasks have been definitely as- signed and you have known when they were satisfactorily completed. To succeed in the future, you must do more than please a small group of sym- I pathetic teachers. You must get along with the wise and the foolish, the just and the unjust, those who are unfriendly as well as those who are friendly to you. You will not always have some one to make definite as- signments of your tasks. ln many instances you must set the tasks as well as the standards of accomplishments for yourselves. For twelve years we have judged you and your work, now it is your turn to judge us. We hope we have won your respect and that it will increase as the years passg and that as citizens, you will prove steadfast friends of public education for the succeeding generation. UZ. fl. , 79AincLfJ,aZ r i Many of us have elderly relatives or family friends who have become moderately wealthy as a result of labor in their youth to produce useful goods or new land-land that had previously been undeveloped and unclaimed. Before them there were many who did likewise. After them there are none. The qualities which made them successful are industry, thrift, patience and self-reliance. Today the struggle with nature to obtain goods is no longer an individual affair. All productive land is privately owned. If we dislike a community, the only escape is to a rather similar community, not to unin- habited forest or prairie. To the qualities which made former generations success- ful in dealing with nature we must add qualities of tact, cooperation, and forbear- ance which may help us succeed in dealing t ' with people. Your school experiences, in classrooms and activities, have partially taught you these things. May you be receptive to the best opportunities lite may offer for their further development.
