Graduation is here and for many of this June graduating class, school days are over for all time. Soon they will begin the stern battle for existence and for recognition, while those who are planning to take advanced courses, will continue their studies in the universities. The class of 1918 now goes forth to strive to win success in life, armed with the advantages that they have derived from their High School course. What will these next few years bring them. To those who are planning to take part in the busy community life around them, it will bring them in contact with vice and crime, which will strengthen their manhood and womanhood, for it there were no temptations to over- come, no pitfaHs to avoid, where would virtue be if one were good. Those who escape these témptations win rspect and admiration from those with whom they associate. While on the other hand, those who are given the opportunity of higher education which is offered them in the universities, will be devoting their time to the betterment and the uplift of their minds. And through this, obtain a broader view of the prob- lems that confront them, and when their course at uni- versity comes to an end, they will be equipped to do their part in the life struggle into which they are en- tering. Class of 1918, it is your duty, now that your High School days are over, and the time for your entrance into life’s arena is here, to make the best of your oppor- tunities, and to leave the world better than when you enter. As our great President, Abraham Lincoln, once said, “It is all together fitting and proper that we do this,” the editorial staff wish to take this opportunity of thanking those who have ‘made this edtion of The icho possible. First, we wish to thank the faculty, one and all, for the encouragement and help they have given, and for the faculty play they gave for the benefit of The Echo. Next, the girls who so generously gave benefit teas and entertainments; then the Senior Class who took it upon themselves to raise the money neces- sary for the publication of the annual. To the entire Student Body for the help and assistance given us; to our advertisers who have given us their hearty sup- port; and last, but not least, to the members of the Press Democrat office who have taken such a great in- terest in our book, and for the many helpful sugges- tions they have given us. —The Editors.
