own 0 ' ln iust a few more days, school will be out. Among younger students this is a signal for iubilation, but not for the older boys and girls, who are being graduated from high school and college. For them it is a time of anticipation over the future. They will be facing the world for the first time alone. They wonder what the future holds for them. They are young, eager, intense, adventuresome. It is to these young people whom lshould like to address a few words. My words concern the future of your country, your city, your com- munity-and the part you are going to play in making them better. ln the past decade, while you were in school, you have watched what science has done toward adding to the comfort, the progress and the security of America. Great these changes have been. Older prophets have said that with so much accomplished, the opportunity for coming generations was lessened until these younger people would find nothing left for them to do. l hope you have not believed this. The fact is that our progress in the past will be as nothing when compared with the progress that will be made during your active business years, and the opportunities which the members of my generation enjoyed, will seem small compared to the oppor- tunities which shall come to you. We who are older will help part of this progress to come about, of course. But it is your privilege and your destiny to carry on from where we leave off and to make the world a better, a safer, a happier place in which to live. This is your opportunity. l envy you your opportunity. There are many world problems left to solve. l speak particularly for my own industry when I say that, great as the service of electricity to man- kind has been, we scarcely have scratched the surface of its use- fulness. Some one of you reading this message today may be des- tined to make electricity a far greater force. My best wishes to you. , President I I PITTSFIELD ELECTRIC COMPANY one hundred forty one
