To the Graduates of the 1930 Class of the Main Avenue High School: You have been citizens of Main Avenue, preparing to be citizens in our great democracy. There is little difference. During school days and after, life’s chief activities are working, playing and being worthy citizens. I hope you have found, or have made good progress in finding, the job that will be yours through life. I hope you can take advantage of all opportunities for developing your aptitudes to the limit. But this develop merit will depend chiefly on your own efforts. You should have discovered the value of play—of worthy use of your leisure time. I liope you will continue to discover and to use wise ways of renewing your spirit—of finding recreation. I hope you have come to realize your obligations as citizens and that you will always want in public positions those who are best fitted to serve. May you all achieve success and happiness! To the 1930 Graduating Class: This High School affords to every student an opportunity to make those contacts which will result in stimulation and growth. All thinking reflects experience. The wider and more representative one’s experiences the more probably will one think accurately and the more surely will sound judgments be reached. “As an architect creates new design from a knowledge of classic structures, so do we create new ideas from an accumulation of individual experience.’’ Supervisor.
