orewo} It is a cold December night and as I He here in bod, my favorite star once again looks down at me. For two happy years this has brought comfort and reassurance. On every clear evening this same star has kept a watchful eye over all of us here ar Mount Vernon. In another six months I shall no longer be able to look up from this peaceful spot and make a wish, or maybe even shed a small tear Soon all of us will be graduated, and, although commencement will have its own thrills, the joyous days here at Mount Vernon will be over , leaving only memories to cherish in future years. But how dear these will be! How much Mount Vernon stands for! This is where I learned to study conscientiously, and how to meet what the day had to offer with courage and strong convictions. My heart is filled with gratitude. Here the word ’ happiness has taken on a new meaning. What a delightful experience it has been to learn how to make the most out of life. One soon discovers that this depends upon our ability to accomplish worthwhile things. Achievement belongs to us alone, Yes, there have been times when the way seemed rough, but then the faith and courage of lr lends, I have watched previous obstacles disappear. What fun it has been to exchange ideas with girls from different parts ot our country, and then discover a certain bond which encircled us all, always drawing us together. These fast friendship will last forever, no matter how widely we may be separated. It has not always been easy for me to understand another ' s point of view, but here I have learned the meaning of the word tolerance, I hope and trust that we will be tactful young women in the larger outside social world, carrying a sensitive perception which radiates kindliness and consideration. Tact is but one of the qualities that we have gained at Mount Vernon. When a situation arises which needs skillful handling our school motto will come back to us, He who conquers himself conquers all. ‘ [f we arc not able to overcome our own handicaps, how shall we possibly confront the more difficult obstacles which prevail at times, making themselves so potent in the struggle for freedom that is taking place all over the world today. We need not always agree with a neighbor ' s opinion: Mount Vernon will have taught us that the best way to live with others harmoniously is to respect and admire what each has to offer. Yes, Dear Star. 1 am going to miss many things which have come to be a part of me. here at school, yet there is always the consoling thought that I shall be able to put into practice what 1 have learned here. May my spirit be as that of those who have dedicated their lives to our Alma Mater, which means, making an effort to give of myself rather than to be concerned about gaining a reward or praise. There are new fields to plow and all we have to do is use the many sturdy tools which have been handed to us.
