'Me TO 'l'lIl+I t'liASS OF 195-1: You are to he congratulated on your graduation from Manchester Iligh School. lt has not been an easy task. At every turn in the road there was a temptation to turn from your objective and seek another. Many of the students with whom you started high school have thought it wise to terminate their formal education. l realize that our high school cannot meet all of the needs of every student. llowever, l ani confident that we have helped you, the Class of l954, prepare to take your place as useful, well-adjusted members of our democratic society. 'l'he school has not achieved this alone. Without the help oif the home and the church your progress would not have been satisfactory. As a class you are apprehensive concerning your future. Nuclear fission has created new problems, jobs may be a little harder to find, military service is a real concern for some of you. These and many other disturbing factors have caused some people to say, U What's the use. Yours is not the first class or the first generation to face difficult times. Other generations of Americans have faced problems just as complex and just as mysterious as those which confront you. With a deep and abiding faith in God, in yourself, and in our social institutions you will be able to overcome these adversities. There are some people in our society who have little or no faith in the youth of our time. I am not one of those people. After working with some of you students in junior high and with all of you in this your last year of high school, I have no fears concerning the future of our community. You have proven to me that you can think intelligently, act wisely, and live successfully. As you depart from M.H.S., I hope that you will not look upon your grad- uation as the end of something. but as the beginning of a new chapter in the great adventure we call life. CARL W. NELSON 7
