TO THE CLASS OF 1922 My Dear Young Friends: During the past four years, you have, as a class, been intimately associated. With man} ' of you, this class friendship has grown for ' tight additional years — those happy days of childhood in the grades. As a class, now, at the time of graduation from the public schools of Rensselaer, you represent the best that the public school system is able to develop. Do not think that you are a product of the Rensselaer High School, that the school is wholly responsible for your mental and physical being. Rather, Rensselaer High School, as it is today, is a product of yours; it is what you have helped to make it. That indefinable something known as school spirit has grown and developed under your fostering and leadership. An efficient corps of teachers cannot make a school nor can a few hundred boys and girls make a high school. It takes rather, a combina- tion of the two: the teachers with the best interests of their pupils in mind, and the pupils, loving their work, loyal to their school and their opportunities. The class of 1922 has done its full part, and to spare, in the development of the institution so neces- sary in the growth of a school in which all can be justly proud. To the fifty-three individuals of the class of 1922, I wish to express my personal appreciation for the unselfish interest and enthusiasm that you have put into your work during the past four years. Certain individuals of your class have never been excelled in scholarship: to ycur class belong some of the best athletes that have ever worked for R. H. S. I have a feeling of pride and sincere pleasure in your achievements as you approach the time of your graduation. May success continue to reward you for your labors through the years to come!
