7074 afiheawime Whenever some cynical observer of the passing scene tells me that America is going to the dogs and that the future is blealc indeed, all l need do to disprove his pessimistic view is to look at such scenes as are being enacted all over the Country right now. What l refer to, as you have guessed, is the graduation of thousands of students from our Country's High Schools and Colleges. just as long as American young people consider an education essential, iust so long will America be a Country with a future. You young people who are now graduating constitute one of our Country's greatest assets. ln a few years, you will have grown to manhood and womanhood. Yours will then be the responsibility which is now ours - who can doubt that you will handle it as creditably as our generation? With the advantages you enioy, you are indeed fortunate. You have opportunities that were denied us. You went to better schools. Your instruction was more competent. And the world you are entering holds more promise than the one into which your parents and grand- parents were ushered, upon finishing school. Part of this promise lies in the contributions of the electrical industry. You have electric light, heat and power as well as the telephone. The radio brings you marvelous entertainment and the news is broadcast from all parts of the world almost the moment something of importance happens. Some of your instruction was furnished by motion pictures and they certainly form a large part of your entertainment. When you grad- uates start in to worlc some of you will enter the utility industry which has contributed so much to better living and which it is my honor to represent. Great changes have come to this industry in the past two decades, far greater changes lie ahead. ln the hands and brains of some of you young people rests the future of this industry and of ever other industry and profession. indeed, its entire future and that oil every other human institution rests upon the genius of today's youth. You are important citizens, you graduates! So long as we have YOU America will be safe - and great. in , PRESIDENT I I PITTSFIELD ELECTRIC COMPANY 152
