TO Tl JE SENIORS ITis is your last year in which you will appear in our midst. Your common school career will soon draw to a close. What then? Does it mean that after graduation exercises your educa- tion will stop, or has it just begun? Most of your education should he acquired after Commencement. Preparation is the Keynote to success. Success does not come without effort. Success at the beginning of a career means encouragement which leads to greater attainments. Failure at the beginning may mean the ruin of a noble career. Your diploma is no indication of the amount of -educa- tion that you possess. It possesses no such magic powers that Aladdin s lamp had. Just how far you get in this world will depend upon you. No one is as much interested in you as you. yourself, ( boose some field in the world s great work and use what knowledge you have gained in your formal edu- cation as a means to further yourself. May success crown your efforts. K. B. LEMMKI. Principal 9 ? M. FR1EDRIC1 H Department — ( commercial and English.
