q , ,,, s ,SHWSWRY- T0 OUR GRADUATES Emerson said somewhere that evo- lution was slow change, but that when it took place rapidly it was spelled with an r and became revolution. lt ap- pears to me that we are in an indus- trial, social, and political evolution or revolution at the present time. Many changes are taking place in rapid suc- cession. However, we will live through these changes and life will be more interesting because of them. This year our graduates in February numbered 255 and of those 100 were Veterans. Our Iune class numbers 245 regular students and 99 Veterans, making a total of 344 for Iune. Thus during 1946 a total of 599 students will have been graduated from Parker High School. We are glad to welcome back our ex-service men and to see them complete the training required for a high school diploma. Out of 1959 of our students who entered the service of their country during World War II, 55 made the supreme sacrifice. Your four years at Parker have been war years. You entered Parker in 1942 soon after Pearl Harbor and you saw your country rise in defense of all that it held dear. Let us hope that now that the War is over we will accept our re- sponsibilities in the world of today and tomorrow. During your high school days we have tried to prepare you for your life work, to give you standards and ideals, to show you how to make the most of your talents, and above all how to be good citizens. We hope for each of you that in the years which lie ahead you will be a credit to Parker High School and to your parents. We know that while you are glad to be graduated you are sorry to leave the school where I am sure most of you spent four busy, but never- theless, four happy years. To the Vet- erans in your graduating groups may I say we are especially glad that you who served your country so faithfully, came back to us, and completed the required work for a high school dip- loma. The time and energy that you have invested in securing a high school diploma has been worthwhile, and I am sure that you will never regret it. With hearty congratulations to each and every one of our graduates of 1946, and with best wishes for your happi- ness in the future, I am Sincerely yours, Principal 5-swfgzt
