.-I vALEDicToRY DIG GERALDINE COX Parents. teachers. school board. and friends. The class of nineteen hundred twenty-three has come to the close of a four year High School course. As we think back through these years. We feel that the training received here and the kindly and helpful advice of our instructors has made our course as profitable to us as it could have been made in any school. We have acquired a certain amount of knowledge and have reach- ed the time when we are to determine the value of this training, A High School training is of great value but this can be realized only when we attempt to solve the problems of life. At times our work has seemed difficult but it is very probable that we shall meet with more ob- stacles in the future than we have in the past.

The man who just wants to get along is not a very great factor among his fellows. it is the individual who is always on time and does his work the best that gets the promotion. Look at some of our great Americans of today. John D. Rockafeller was as desirous of a fortune as one could be. but it never occured to him that he could find one without work. He saw that there was gold all about him and that people would gladly give it to him for something they wanted, if he could supply it to them at a lower price than they had been pay ing. So he gave them Letter oil at a cheaper price. He has not only made his fortune but has built up an industry which has contributed to the real wealth of the world.
