Presiden+'s Message ACUl.'l'Y. Students, Parents, and liriends of the graduating class of january, 193 1: You have gathered here this morning to greet us, and we to pay our respects to you, who have given tis this wonderful opportunity, and who have guided us through our years of struggle on this sea of learning. Some of us are through with our iourney and are about to explore the great expanse of lifeg while others of us are just finishing one part of' our journey, to st.u't again upon another one of adventure in the higher branches of learning. W'e entered the school three years ago, for the most part, unacquainted with each other, and as freshmen. We sailed under the Viking through the junior Sea and finally into the Senior Ocean that brought us to the safe harbor of Graduation Now that the haven is at hand, it seems that we have come to the end of a pleasant experience, and we are truly sorry to see it terminate. The value of our three years of study does not lie only in our acquisition of statis- tical facts and figures, but also in friendships gained through scholastic, social, and athletic activities. Serious-minded people may feel that we place too much emphasis upon the field of athletics, but it is a tie of sociability that brightens life. Our vari- ous soeieties also have helped to fill this real need, and it is with gratitude that we realize that this is .1 wise provision for our good, and that loyalty and school spirit, fostered by school and class organizations, become community and social assets of .1 high order of citizenship, XVe can always talk more fluently of the Faculty when they are not present, and they will forever be the recipients of our sincerest respect and thanks. XVe are parting for a while. Some of us will often meet: others may never, but wherever we go, into whatever experience, those of us who are graduated this january will carry with us thoughts that are rich in gratitude to those who have made it possible for this day to come to us: you, our parents, and you, our patient and faithful instruc- tors.
