With the coming of june, the Class of 1949 will have completed twelve years of elementary and secondary education. Your teachers and I hope that, in addition to the fundamental skills which you have obtained, you have acquired concomitant learnings in self-government and toler- ance as well as a growth of responsibility in domestic, hemispheric, and world affairs. Your ex- periences have been mainly in institutions made for young people, real paradises for children. You have been looked upon as individuals with rights and privileges. As individuals, few of you have experienced real defeat. You are now entering a type of world which may differ considerably from the one you have just left. The ease with which you are able to adapt yourself to the changes will be as good a measure of your success as the academic grades earned during your formative years. CnARLEs A. Bowes Princifval.

New and different experiences will greet you, New horizons will beckon to you in the future. l sincerely hope that your school life has instilled within each and everyone of you a faith in the future of America.

You have a knowledge of how man has lived and struggled for advancement. You know the problems faced in our pas-t history and the hardships endured to achieve advance- ment in the political, social, material and religious life of our country. Continue to think of the faith and courage of others in the past, and you will realize what can be achieved in the future if only we have such faith and courage. A marvelous new age lies ahead for youth. America shall remain a light and an example for the free peoples of the world so long as youth emerge from our schools imbued with the faith and courage to go forward. The challenge is yours. We feel confident you will meet it. c ' ulonn B. PlENDERSHUT S'11f7CI'i1ZfC71dC'11Ii of Schools. 6 The 1949 Sequin
