By your efficient work in High School you have shown your appreciation of the community's investment in education, and the sacrifices in your home which have made your course possible. Nineteen months of the time you were in High School, two hundred-fifty alumni were giving their time and energy to the Wo1'ld War. Four gave their lives to the cause of freedom. Most of the others have returned, broadened in vision and deepened in sympathy. We honor them for their sacrifices. This reconstruction period upon which our returned soldier alumni and the class of 1920 are entering has many interesting and difficult problems. It is your problem and task to seek justice for the pros- perity of the masses of pcopleg to decide what is a reasonable dayis workg a liv- ing wage, to what extent labor shall have voice in the control of industry and to what extent labor shall participate in the profits of industryg shall men and wo- men have equal payg how shall we treat our immigrants? The answer you give to these and other kindred problems will determine your community and national usefulness rather than the promise you make on Commencement Day. But you enter upon the task with the buoyancy, dash and enthusiasm of youth. You are vigilant, active, brave. Your education will serve you well. On the calm and de- liberate judgment of educated, thinking people, who are restrained by the exper- ience of the past and who coordinate their thinking with the activities of the pres- ent, depends the hope of Christian Democracy. As you tackle your problem re- member the words taken from the football field and used as a life motto by the late Theodore Roosevelt-'aDon't flineh, donit fail, hit the line hardf' J. L. C.
