S. begin to dance and the smoke begins to form, there are those who have gathered the wood and leaves for the fire, as the smoke rises to the sky, there are those who have planned the smoke-signals to the world, and there are those who have blazed the'rough trails o the Indian tribes of P N to follow, to widen, and to make fi I. I O ,Qsmoother. All these responsibilities have fallen upon the depend- Board W E Parsons able shoulders of the' Port Neches School -- . . A , president of the board, a native of Washington State and who is now associated with the Texas Company, F. S. Dengler, secretary of the board, superintendent of the Texas' Company, who is a native of Pennsylvania, and W. L. Beaumont, a native of Texas and a prosperous and well-liked dairyman and farmer.

You are finishing school at a time that demands the I e greatest skill and effortsgat a time which will demand many sacri- 5 ? fices and responsibilitiesg at a time when the entire world and I g our American way of life with its high standards of living is be- Q I ing challenged. If this country with its unlimited protections, i privileges, and opportunities is to continue, you must accept nmN I a great responsibility. This responsibility to our country and to I I your future success must be met through definitely preparing your- I I self for a vocation or profession, then enter some vocational I I school, some business that offers a future, or some job where you I I 1 , 1 ' can learn as you earn.' Do not look for an easy way or wait for I I . something to be given you. We get the good things of life through I , planning, toiling, and thinking. We enjoy free speech, religious 3 freedom, educational and vocational opportunities, and the pursuit A ,of happiness through the wisdom, knowledge, belief in God, and Imany sacrifices of the early founders of our government. If these principles are to continue, we must do our own thinking, and when I awe go to the ballot box, we must discern between the politician 2 1who is offering to give us something for nothing and the statesman ' 1 I I ,who is attempting to preserve our plan of government. We must .have love in our hearts for our fellow mang we must be law abiding ' I ,citizensg we must have the love of God in our hearts and not per- 5 ,mit ourselves to be swept into every current that tends to .build , ,hatred between classes, that tends to destroy our individuality, . I I May I wish'for each of Iligious life, and enough fortable and happy. May utors to the best things I I you a happy and successful home life, TG- I and that offers any other plan than the Golden Rule. I I success in this economic world to be com- I each of you become leaders of and contrib- I of society. I --W . .Tmiollowayg Superintend ent... -5 l l Page Four
