Dkar Students: Socrates taught that one of the fundamental principles of life was to “Know thyself.” Whether or not we agree with this great Greek philosopher, 1 am sure that we are all willing to admit that he at least challenges our thinking. How well do you know yourself- your ability-to learn; your ability to measure up to the standards of your ambitions; and above all, your ability to co-operate with other people? It is true that we here in Main Avenue High School can, to a limited degree, assist you to know yourself. You alone, however, arc the final judge in this serious business of introspection. If you misjudge yourself, either by over-estimating or under-estimating your capabilities, you will be a misfit' in our social order and w’ll probably be unhappy. And so, as this school year closes and as you lay your plans for further achievement, pause for a moment to reflect upon this bit of philosophy- “ Know thyself.” Faithfully yours, Twenty
