Principal Joseph M. Tewinkel It always seems odd to be asked, the middle of November, to write a message to the graduat- ing class of the following June. In November our thoughts are centered on tbe grand American holiday of Thanksgiving. Perchance thanksgiving isn ' t too remote a theme for the Class of June 1955! Twelve school-year calendars and about $3,000 of school-tax money have gone into the life of each member of this fine class. It IS a fine class. Add to this tax outlay another $10,000 to $15,000 which each family has spent on the son or daughter of its pride, and you have a formidable outlay. America believes in its youth. ' Three thousand dollars, from the public treasury ' ? Wow. that would have bought me a swell convertible ! It surely would have. And in five years the convertible would have sagged in value to a bargain-lot Today Only — $395. Instead, you ' ve been given schooling which easily can yield $ 1 ()().()()(), a quarter million, even more, within your lifetime. All for an in- vestment of $3,000, which you didn ' t have! Five years, ten years, fifty years from now, you ' ll be thankful for your high school diploma. Grati- tude is a wonderful attribute. Maybe it wouldn ' t be amiss to practice a little of it at this com- mencement time. Those are your folks out in the commence- ment crowd — mother crying just a little, for some silly reason, and dad. proud but with a lump in his throat. Over there in the corner are some teachers who saw possibilities in you and worked on those possibilities just as much as you ' d let them ! It might not hurt to say. Thank you, at this exciting time of June graduation. For we love you and wish you well.
