’’And now it’s time to think of starting life anew” . . . Three years ago we sang this for the first time; now we sing it with an even deeper meaning in our words. We’ve left behind us one of the most absorbing experiences that young women can have and are approaching one we are hoping will prove even more exciting and profitable . . . just as exciting as the promise of these words from one of our school songs. Each of us wishes for every other member of the class that she find in the future new life she’s entering all she dreams for or plans upon and, perhaps, even something better than she has dared to hope for.
