Salutatory “The wind and waves favor the ablest navigator.” We, the class of )une, 1935, in this, our graduation, resemble a tiny fleet of ships each bearing its cargo, its own individual contribution to the problems of life. We now put forth from the sheltered waters in which we have sailed so long, aided by the love and guidance of all those who have helped us so wonderfully in making the correct preparations for this long journey. It is the problem of each of us to guide our individual lives across the sea to that far harbor of deference and value to the community as a whole. The picture viewed from our present haven of safety presents an anything but reassuring aspect, for in the distance the dark clouds of radicalism, communism, and their kindred theories appear in the darkened sky. The course is filled with jagged reefs, annoying and dangerous riptides, and currents of unsound ideas and theories. Today as in the time of Columbus, Vespuccus and other early mariners, there is a lack of guiding lights — political, economic, and moral. In full view are the ships of former years, many sailing the true and steady course, but many drifting helplessly in the sea of depression unable to set their course on favorable winds. Still others have been wrecked upon the black, foreboding rocks, while many have disappeared beneath the huge waves of economic distress. Captains and navigators of the weather-beaten crafts of previous years can give us little aid or advice to help us conquer the problems which be- come visible. It might seem foolhardy to pit our youth and inexperience against all these adverse conditions which are in great prevalence. Also, it might seem a helpless task to set forth to solve the problems upon which older and more experienced navigators have wrecked their ships. Although the course appears perilous, we know that it is not unconquerable. Put forth we must, for such is the rule of life; and regardless of the pitfalls with which we meet, we must set our sails, confident of our own seahardiness and of our good fortune with which to find sufficiently fair winds to carry us through to the end. Slowly and surely through the years that we have made ready for this journey, we have builded our ship aided by the advice of those who have weathered previous storms. Their self-sacrifice and loving care have provided us with many of the instruments necessary that we, too, might gain that great end as have the great majority of those who have gone before us. First, we have been provided with the compass of an abiding faith in Cod, which, as a guide, unhesitatingly indicates the true north. It also is an assurance that no matter what may befall us, we shall always know the direction of our course. Second, we have been provided with health, that most necessary of all things so essential to the seaworthiness of our ship, that we may have the strength to resist the strains of wrenching waves and winds of long, arduous labor. Third, from the various studies we have pursued during our time here, we have gained many and varied sails of intelligence, which, together with others acquired to the same end, can be set properly to gain the best advantage of the winds we find to drive us along our course. We are not fearful of the outcome. Each generation has put forth on this same journey and always the great majority through honest, sincere attention to its life work has attained its goal successfully. Many, heedless of their obligations and unwilling to earn their ways through genuine effort have failed in seas of sunshine and fair wind. Some have sunk beneath the waves after valiant struggle. Some have had fair wind and easy passage. We are well -equipped ; so, regardless, of what may obstruct our course, we shall press on. All these rocks, waves, winds, currents, absence of guides, and other adverse conditions are only the problems of life which have been solved so successfully by previous captains. The proudest ships of all are those which, handicapped by ill health, ragged sails of inadequate preparation, lack of the many advantages with which we sail forth, have carried on to that far distant harbor for which we are all striving. We fully realize that each wave of distress with which we are able to cope and to overcome but adds to our strength to resist our next wave of oppositoin. We know that we will encounter many fair and foul winds, that we will have more sunny than cloudy days, that we will make many new and valued friendships, and that for each loss there will be a com- pensating gain. We have drifted in the sheltered waters long enough. We have faith in our ability and in our ship and we gladly sail forth though uncertain of the outcome. We, never- theless, know that we shall have our best to attain that coveted port. MARGARET CARRIGAN, June. Page Eleven
