THE BGHO VoL, I SANTA ROSA, CALIFORNIA, JUNE, 1910 No. 9 CLASS OF JUNE, 1910 This graduation, vour first public ap- pearance, is being watched with exceeding interest because you re present the type of men and women for which there is public peed, and because you are likely to be among the leaders of the next generation. You have shown by the seriousness with which you have performed your daily work that the training which you have received is one of great value. Your High School course has given you power to do things, and power to enjoy things. The courses in physics, chemistry, and mathematics have enabled you to know tne laws of natural forces, and therefore vecome able to control those forces and make them serve definite ends. In history and economics you have gained at least a certain power of prevision which will keep you from spending your efforts in useless and harmful directions. While in the courses in literature, music, and art you have opened up before you honorable and yermanent sources of happiness. Power to do things and power to enjoy things are then the rewards which you have obtained from your High School course. s you go from this school look for the yest that is around you and the best will rise up always to reward you. Let your faith in the triumph of right be as firm and as resolute as the courage and steadfastness of the Ancient Mariner, who, while battling with the angry seas, cried out from the stern of his vessel, “O God, Thou canst save me if Thou wilt, and if Thou wilt Thou canst destroy me: but whether or no, I will hold my rudder fast.” Charles IL, Searcy.
