Mr. Charles A. Davis PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE You, the Class of I960, are the first generation of seniors to receive the coveted diploma from the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School. You are charter members of an institution which has its deriva¬ tions in the generations which have preceded you; an institution whose foundations rest upon the con- ■ ' dction that you should have the best preparation for adult living and adult citizenship that our society is capable of providing. Your worth as a graduate is not necessarily proven by the receipt of a diploma; but rather by what use you make of that body of knowledge you have acquired, the ideas you will cultivate and nurture, the extent to which your intellect is inflamed, and your horizons broadened. Prove your worth by continually developing your mind so that you, as well as society, will continue to benefit. Time brings many changes and the understanding and recognition of these changes are all important. The maxim which states that nothing is permanent but change,” is an excellent one to remember. The education of past generations was geared to the times; and it was good; but it would be inadequate for today’s training of tomorrow’s citizenry; for we are living in the Age of the Atom and the astronaut, and in the realization that the comic strip episodes of Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon are no longer entities of entertainment, but scientific probability based on fact. Remember that change and adaptation to change are forever with us. Failure to recognize this and ad¬ just accordingly are attributes of ignorance, illiteracy, and immorality; all of which contribute to the internal decay of nations and to the enslavement of their masses. Remember, too, that all progress stems from change, but all change is not necessarily progress. Good luck to you in all your endeavors and may all your undertakings strengthen your self, your com¬ munity, and your country.
