Tl l MH. W. li. HAWLEY Pycipal .945 To the Members of Monroe Highf?School Class of J une, 1917: GREETINGS! In the same year that the first enemy bombs fell on Pearl Harbor you entered Monroe High School. You have thus been its pupils through one of the nation's most critical periods. This period has been an extremely difficult one for young people, also. You have had responsibility for avoiding extreme emotionalism to which young people have been subjected and for taking a leading part in maintaining school morale during these historic and trying times. You have met your obligations magnificently and now at the time of your graduation it is my pleasure, on behalf of the students and faculty of the school, to congratulate you upon your gradu- ation. Your past record predicts splendid success for the future and we all wish that for you. You will be held to Monroe High School by a strong tie of filial loyalty for the remainder of your lives and Monroe will always be proud to acclaim you among its graduates. My personal best wishes to each. May all good attend you. W. li. H. Dear Mr. Hawley, liver since it was established in 1923, you have been at the head of Monroe High School. In a sense you have come to mean Monroe to us. Your friendliness, your tact, your integrity have been an important part of our school life. We shall never forget your understanding, your sane judgment, your gracious kindliness. Vie want you to know, Mr. Hawley, that we are grateful to you. You have been not only a wonder- ful school lcader, but a community leader in many projects. Our parents, our teachers-all have felt confident and secure under your wise leadership. We are not saying Hfflood-bye. You are, in a way, graduating with us this June from Monroe High School, and we feel that you belong to us. Therefore we, the Seniors of M. H. S., wish to bestow upon you Honorary Membership in the Class of 19-17. And now, so long and good luck! Yours most sincerely, THE CLASS or 1947 7 1 l
