To the Class of 1929 : Every member of the Class of ' 29 expects finally to have success in life. But what is real success? It is the accomplishment of a purpose, the effects of which will live on for the betterment of the human race and the glory of God. Perhaps we can find no more inspiring analysis of success than the following : It ' s doing your job the best you can, And being just to your fellowman; It ' s making money, but holding friends, And staying true to your aims and ends; It ' s figuring how and learning why, And looking forward and thinking high; It ' s being clean and playing fair; It ' s laughing lightly at Dame Despair; It ' s looking up at the stars above. And drinking deeply of life and love; It ' s struggling on with the will to win, But taking loss with a cheerful grin; It ' s sharing sorrow and worth and mirth And making better this good old earth ; It ' s serving, striving, through strain and stress. It ' s doing your noblest — that ' s success! May each of you be a success, and make the very utmost of your life and your opportunities. S. D. Neff. Tools EACH me the infinite significance of the opportunities of life and the infinite insig- nificance of the setting of life. Help me to make the things of life the tools of my spirit and not its prizes; to regard circumstances as only the scaff ' olding on which I stand while I build. This is a noble prayer, and it is a desire that is pertinent at graduation time. High school training and the diploma received for it are opportunities if one makes them so. They are significant of patience, endeavor, and ambi- tion ; however, they in themselves should not be the goal. They should become a setting for higher standards and greater endeavor in the future. A diploma is a thing and so should be a tool, not a prize. True, a diploma is awarded in the spirit of prize giving, a prize for twelve years of work and fun and growth ; but it should not be hung on the wall and looked at as a reminder of the past, but regarded as a spur toward the future.
