1 1? 51 34 i 5,...... 1952 Graduating Class Senior High School I' W' RAMSEY Fort Smith, Arkansas Superintendent of Schools My dear friends: The editor of the Bruin has requested me to comment briefly on your work in the high school for the past three years, and about your plans for the future. This I am delighted to do and I trust each member of the class will regard this as a personal message. Very shortly now you will cross the threshold from school lite to a new and different scene. In doing so, you will discover that our lives are divided into distinct compartments each of which is much like a room in which you remain for a time. And just as in passing from room to room in your home you carry some things with you while leaving others behind, you will leave the carefree days of high school and assume the responsibility of adult citizens. This will be true whether you go on to college next year or enter immediately into the business world. In the troubled world you must enter, you will need all the attributes of character your teachers have stressed so emphatically and so continuously- courage, thoroughness, vision, perseverance, optimism, personal integrity, de- votion to duty, ability to get along with people, willingness to do more than is expected ot you at times, just plain common honesty. The world is ever seeking and will richly reward men and women who possess these qualities. We are expecting much of you and have high hopes that you will not disap- point us. As you leave high school for the new lite experience that lies ahead you may be certain that you take with you my very best wishes for success and happiness in all your future undertakings. Sincerely yours.
