THE CADUCEUS 21 which you conducted the Freshmen Re- ception. Let us hope that all Sophomores in the future will follow your excellent example. You have proven yourselves to be a brilliant class, and our message to you is to carry on as you have begun. Juniors: Keep up your good work. Re- member the eyes of the lower-classmen arc upon you, and look to you for a good ex- ample. Therefore, watch your steps that you may be wise leaders and that your good influence may long be remembered. You will be the first to graduate from the new building, and may you also have the honor of being one of the finest classes ever to graduate from Norway High School. L'ndergraduates: Now is the time to pre- pare yourselves for your life 's work. If you will put all your efforts into your work, you are sure to get the most out of it. VVhatever you undertake, do your best and' you are sure to profit. Even if things do go wrong, keep on. There never was an obstacle which could not be overcome. Remember that in order to be most suc- cessful i11 your life 's career, you must have something with which to work: you must have those invaluable assets, knowledge and training. It is my advice to you to acquire these assets while in high school. Now is the time to build a solid foundation for your future achievements. -Maurice E. Flint, '29.
