L. E. RABOUIN VOCATIONAL SCHOOL NEW ORLEANS, LA. April 17, 1940 Dear Graduates: The other day I came across a poem and feel that it is most befitting that I should pass it on to you. The poem is called Success It contains much meat for thought, especially at a time when you are looking forward with such eagerness to conquering the world of commerce. The author is unknown 3 his definition of success is: It's doing your job the best you can, And being just to your fellow man, It's figuring how, and learning why, And looking forward and thinking high, And dreaming little, and doing muchg It's keeping always in closest touch With what is finest in word and deedg It's being clean and playing fair, It's laughing lightly at Dame Despair, It's sharing sorrow and work and mirth, And making better this good old earth, It's serving and striving through strain and stress, It's doing your noblest-that's success. To what he says I would add but this, that each day you ask God's Blessing on your work. That success of this type may always attend your efforts is my hope and prayer. Your friend and principal, VIOLETT O'REILLY Eight RAB-JAB

RAB-JAB Nor is Mrs. Rabouin content to bask in the reflected glory that her husband's money would bring. Since Mr. Rabouin's death she has devoted a great deal of her time to travelling, and has given freely of her energies to welfare work. Mrs. Rabouin is an active worker for the Community Chest, a member of the Ladies, Auxiliary QTuberculosis Hospital on Gen- tilly Avenuej, a member of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital, and Vice-President of the Maison Hospitaliere. Being devoutly religious, she takes an active part in all the functions of her Parish Church. Mrs. Rabouin is truly in tune in life's symphony. We who are just starting to draw our bows across the strings of life should be guided and inspired by the unselfish example set by this fine woman. The question is not-who leads-but how well do you harmonize -that really counts. Few of us will be brilliantly successful in a large way, but we may all achieve success in the smaller phases of life. So, as we greet each morning anew, let us not go to our task- . . . like the quarry-slave at the night, Scourged to his dungeon, but full of joyous new energy. In so doing, others will feel inspired by our mere presence. Faithfully, Your Editor Gur School Song Rabouin, dear Alma Mater, All hail to you! Rabouin, with deep devotion, We will be ever true to you. Our love- arouses singing, Singing with loud acclaim. Thy virtues o'er the earth We'll sing thy joyful name. CH OR US Onward, upward, singing as we go Rabouin School. Crushing, downing, each and every foe While we sing. Forward, march, let this our motto be: Victory. With faith, love and hearts aglow, We'll stand by you where'er we go, To Rabouin School we'll e'er be true.
