OUR ACRES OF DIAMONDS Presiflen fs A ddress Youth tends to look to national figures for inspiration, overlooking familiar personages. Where could one find better evidence of prog- ress and development than at home, in Mus- kegon Heights? Muskegon Heights was founded fifty years ago, and each year has shown advancement. Our prospective growth is unknown. Many cities surpass their summit, but our peak is not nearly attained. The foundation of a nation is in its industry, consequently we are unafraid, for this is our foundation. The widely diversified industries here offer opportunities in every field, but they will not be handed to us. We must face each day with a challenge and anticipate from life only as much as we contribute to it. We must prosper by mistakes, put aside wrong. and build on right, in order to achieve the realization that we have put something into the world. Our closeness to these opportunities makes them difficult to see. Too many students believe that only in the big city can fame and fortune be attained. Do not travel afar looking GALLUP CARLSON Vice-President Secretary TOM BEGLEY for success when such excellent opportunities lie here at home. Fifty years from now the attention of the graduating class of this school will undoubted- ly be focused upon the progress of our city. Are you going to do your part in advancing Muskegon Heights? Will you take advantage of the opportunities it offers? If we, as its citi- zens, can forward it in our lifetime, we will truly have accomplished something. LONGTIN Treasurer MCCALEB Serg.-at-arms
