A U RORA A A E T E E A T If E A T Y - F I V E President’s Address ODAY IS OUR LAST DAY IN SCHOOL, and graduation is at hand. As we look back upon our four years of work here, we see the benefit of many of our studies to us, some of which have prepared us for future study, while others have fitted us to play a useful part in the business world. Experience gained by solving problems for ourselves and doing our own study- ing will assist us in future work. Throughout our school life we have been organized in classes, each succeed- ing class assuming more responsibilities and doing more to make our school life beneficial. Through such organization we have learned the need for co-opera- tion in problems before us which is a definite requisite of the present social and economic system under which we live. By such organization of classes there is also developed a spirit of rivalry between the members of other classes and ourselves. This spirit tends toward competition, and competition spurs us on to -make ourselves better than our competitors. It is this spirit of competition which makes modern business so filled with opportunities for those who will work, ami so filled with pit-falls for those who will not work. The valuable training which we receive in school enables us to enter upon a business career with a far greater chance for success than is open to those who have not had the benefit of such training. One of the greatest benefits from a high school course is the friendships made among teachers and fellow students. We cannot live within ourselves, and to make any community a success we must have some kind of social organiza- tion based on the friendly feeling of the individuals composing it. This capacity for friendship, then, will prove of real value to us in our after lives so that we ought to cherish and retain our high school friends and hv so doing learn to strengthen and nurture one of the basic qualities in civic life. In behalf of the Class of 1925 I should like to thank the teachers sincerely for the effort and work which they have given freely in helping to make the Class of 1925 a success. Many were the problems which confronted this class and which needed the broader experience of teachers to carry them out with success, I am sure that the members of the Senior Class appreciate fully the help given by the Faculty. Lastly, may the members of this class never fail to remember their class- mates, but remain ever loyal and true to each other. Then by applying this principle of loyalty to our subsequent life and giving every person a square deal we can help to make our associations with outsiders respected and cherished ones.
