M. H. S. YEAR BOOK Sys LAU Ps IRONY by Amelia Leonelli Cardinal Newman once said, “Fear not that thy life shall come to an end, but rather fear that it shall never have a beginning.’’ We who stand tenight at the crossroad between a happy past and an unknown future have reached not the end, but the commencement of our lives. This evening marks a definite conclusion of a very important period ot our lives. The time of our preparation is over. We have laid the foundation that will help us to solve the complicated problems of our life work. It is altogether fitting that you, our parents, teachers, and friends, who have contributed so much to our progress thus far, should join with us on this most significant occasion. It is my privilege, in the name of my classmates, to convey to you our happiness in having you here tonight, and to extend to you a most hearty welcome to our commencement exercises. Our high school course has been a difficult one. For many of us it has meant a great struggle. There have been times when a high degree of courage and patience has been necessary. “The depression years have helped us to gain a better understanding of the joys, the toils, and the sorrows of life; to be critical of our own work; to be unselfish, honest and fair in all our undertakings. Now that our course is completed, we have a feeling of keen satisfaction in something well done. We wish to express our sincere thanks to our teachers, who have pa- tiently devoted much of their time to solving our heavy problems. Without their generosity and foresight we could not tonight face the future with courage and hope. To our parents we owe a lasting debt of appreciation and affection. Their words of encouragement during these disturbing years and the sacri- fices they have been willing to make will never be forgotten. And we thank our friends for the interest they have shown in us. We shall endeavor to justify the confidence that they have placed in us. Again, in behalf of my classmates, I welcome you all—parents, teachers, and friends—to the graduation exercises of the Class of 1935. L27et
