62 an To graduate is the last step of basic education and the first step into an entirely new life, a life of grown-up ideas to which this basic education must be applied. Broadmindedness is the essence of the mature mind. To help us attain this level of thinking, a definite curriculum has been set by the state of Ohio to inject a certain degree of this particularly fine quality in all students by the time they gradu- ate. This curriculum is the schedule in school which you have had since kindergarten, and the definite courses you have followed since the ninth grade. By following this set plan, you have been awakened to the fact that not all people have the same ideas toward the same things. To be broadminded is to acknowledge and analyze all sides of the question involved and then accept the information that is right. Until you are able to obtain this characteristic of a stable and mature mind, the education you have received will have done you little good in our country where democracy is the result of broadmindedness.

cficalian Graduation Day-A day of cheering and joyousness for some seniors, for others--sorrow and tears, but, for all, a day to consider a future Which is ahead of us, filled With shadows of doubt and uncertainty. You, Graduates, are leaving a school, but as you know, you are leaving an institution Where democracy is at its high- est, and Where it must be at its best in order to maintain mutual trust among a body of young people who must Work together. As you leave the platform accompanied by the traditional sheepskin, those shadows of doubt and uncertainty loom much closer and larger than they really are, playing havoc With the imagination, raising your suspicions as to the trust- Worthiness of your neighbors, and in general, sowing the seeds of distrust among all mankind. It is, as a last Wish, that this graduating class will retain their annual for the day when these shadows loom greatest, that their yearbook will bring back an understanding and considerate feeling to a world starving for peace. So be it that this Croghan Annual of l946 is dedicated to the Graduating Class of l946 in its future course, to a graduating class With a future, to a graduating class with the remnants of democracy and peace resting in its hands. 3
