ll Ill s .. ., ..-tv, I E j. rincip al Graduates from high school are always reminded, and rightly so, that they are leaving school to find their places in a rapidly changing world. This is true but it should not be a cause for alarm. Each year from the beginning of time life with its accompanying problems has become increas- iingly complex. XVe have no indication that life will be reduced to simpler terms. Hence, the challenge to the individual for the world of the future is one to be accepted if one is to survive. We have come 'to accept this fact and adjust to it because we know that there are many basic factors which exist through all time. There always will be an important place in life for the individual who is willing to work and who is sincere, loyal, honest, and dependable. We believe your school experience has helped to develop in you these qualities and characteristics and that you will reveal them in your daily associations as you go on from here. Our best wishes are extended to each of you for a happy and successful life. ff'- Ns.-:.SXbJLX, Page Sixteen
