THE BEACON A MESSAGE TO THE SENIORS V In one of his moments of depression, Hamlet, the melancholy Dane, exclaims, The world is out of joint: U cursed spite, that efuer I was born to set it right! In leafving school and entering the actifuities of adult life, you are entering a world that seems to be out of joint-war, greed, selfish- ness, dishonesty in higlz places, scientific discofveries and inventions pro- ducing tevlznological displacement of employment, new modes of living and new theories of social relations have all contributed to a situation which requires us to critically examine all of our past modes of action and theories of gofuernment, religion and human relationships. You are con- fronted by a crisis out of which will come opportunities for serfoice sur- passing any previous age of history. President Roosevelt says, This crisis can be met, but not in a day or a year, and education is a fvital factor in the meeting of it. Keep your mind alert, fluid, receptifve but critical, not accepting an idea because it is new nor rejecting it because it is old, but demanding reasoned proof of its aceeptability. Continue the pursuit of knowledge, keep your thoughts pure and your bodies clean, and thus keep yourself fit to aid in remaleing a world built upon the ideal of the brother- hood of man and the fatherhood of God. Then instead of Hanilet's cry of despair, you will joyfully exclaim with Browning, God's in his heafven- 11ll's right with the world! -Joseph H. Saunders. PAGE EIGHT
