Recently I read an article dealing with the old adage There is always room at the top . The writer questioned this statement, pointing out that life is arranged like a pyramid or cone; that the higher one rises, the less room there is and that those at the top depend upon many more at the base giving the whole a firm foundation. I agree with the view expressed above. Out of millions, there are very few who reach the pinnacle, and there can be but few who reach it. There is but one Lincoln, one Edison, one Lindbergh, one Shirley Temple. This does not mean that it is useless for an ordinary mortal to strive to reach the heights. Each should make the most of the talents he possesses. Unhappiness may come from too high hopes of worldly success and fame when few can ever attain these. It is my hope that you who go out from this school may make the most of your talents and that you find contentment and happiness in work done to the best of your ability. This is real success. E. 0. Evans, Superintendent University of Wisconsin, M. A. Carroll College, B. A. You of the graduating class are going out into a world of confusion and uncertainty. It will be easy to find things wrong with the world about you. The possibility’’ of war is real and menacing. There is not enough work to go around. As a young citizen you should seek with all the intelligence you have to understand this strange new world into which you have come. You should learn to use your own eyes, to observe what goes on, to read newspapers and books with discrimination, to go to the roots of things in the light of your own common sense. Train your-seif to observe, to think, to speak, to write, and to be natural and agreeable in conversation. Think more of your own growth and happiness than the money you can make. And finally, remember that the outcome depends on yourself. Whether we shall go forward into a new order must in the end depend on yourself. The kind of a country we shall have in the future depends on the kind of men and wc.-an the youth of today are determined to be. T. R.
