Butler C, The World of Tomorrow: A Challenge On June I4 approximately one hundred fifty of us will receive otir diplomas. a recognition of four years in high school, To some of us this achievement is a stepping stone towards a goal, to others it represents four years of pleasant association and good times: to still others it stands for a period of wasted time. All of us, however, are looking forward to the same thing, the world of tomorrow. What will it be? A small percentage of the class has worked in these four years toward further education. These few contem- plate more advanced study in colleges, training schools, and universities: and so their problem of tomorrow's world may be postponed for awhile. A number of us cannot pursue education beyond high school, yet we have a genuine determination to get ahead and to succeed in life. This group, in future years, will derive as much as possible from their work: they will give service. It is they who will be leaders in their community, who will bend every effort toward making a better society, socially and economically.

There are those of us, too many of us, who will carry into the world of tomorrow the same disregard for author- ity that we have shown during these four years. Unless we change, we will become society's outcasts, lawbreakers, undesirable citizens, petty criminals, even major offenders. That some of us will spend our world of tomorrow in confinement in prisons or disciplinary institutions is de- plorable. This, then, is the class of 1939. citizens of a world that teems with opportunity, a world that offers its wealth to any ambitious and resourceful individual. At no time in history have chances for advancement been so numerous, so challenging. That world out there demands men with ideas: it asks for intelligence, originality, leadership, charac- ter. That universe into which we step is one in which competition is keen, where intellect is needed to solve the ever-increasing complexities life offers, where justice is swift. where success does not depend on chances or luck. Equipped with whatever qualifications we have made for ourselves in these years just past, we pause, knowing that the world of tomorrow, like that of yesterday and today, will be exactly what we make it. we
