THE “ACORN” To the Class of 25 r HE passing of a class bring thoughts to mind that we do not wish to reveal to you, because this is your commencement—the beginning of a broader, larger outlook—and it would be out of place to suggest anything that would mar that vision in any way. It might seem that the going out of so many classes would make the departure rather commonplace. Not so—there is a feeling of responsibility, whether during these four years all has been done that could have been done to give you a broader, fuller vision of life, its duties, its responsibilities to self, to others, and to God. The world has a place for you and it is up to you to find it, and having found it, to exert such an influence that the community in which you live may be enriched by the life you live. Page Nine
