PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE TO THE SENIORS — You are in the early spring of your lives. You are the yet undeveloped resources of the human race. You are the hope of the future in school sweaters and bobby socks, with school books under your arms. In a few short years the world community will look to you for leadership. Will you be able to provide the skills needed- in the complex society of tomorrow ? The answer to this question is up to you. It will depend on how well you prepare yourselves for the diffi¬ cult tasks of tomorrow. In your struggle to overcome the obstacles of the present and future you mustforever remem¬ ber that we are living in a best man world. A world that is built upon the foundation of the man who is best prepared for the job. The challenge is yours, don ' t take it lightly. There are obstacles that you will encounter in your struggle for positions in this world of keen competi¬ tion. However, the wise man uses his obstacles as stepping stones in his struggle. Therefore, you must be wise, patient, considerate and understanding if you want to succeed in life. Seniors, I hope that each of you set your sights on real goals, that will enable you to make significant contributions to society. Remember as you move on from here, you must be cog¬ nizant of the fact that you must always try and give to your vocation the best that you have. If you do this, then, success will be yours. The Principal 11
