x essages rom the A high school education is an American civic birthright. You of the Class of 1948 have done your best to endow yourself with this blessed heritage which you are privi- leged to enjoy. You are great citizens because you are among the remaining two-thirds of your class who have started with this birthright and carried through with this training to this end. You have proven that you are made of that which is necessary to survive ordeals and carry on despite distractions. As Americans we must i'Learn or Perish. If we are to live in peace with each other, it is not enough to claim that we will tolerate each other. Tolerate is such a cold, unfriendly word. We do not tell a loved one or a friend that we tolerate him, if we did, no doubt, he would be insulted. Let us agree not to tolerate each other but to accept each from the bottom of our hearts. This will enable us to make for greater unity and better understanding among our nation and the world. Whatever else life may give or deny-one thing is abso- lutely indispensable-that you dare not break faith with yourself, that you keep your honor bright in your own eyes. May happiness and success be yours. HOWARD M. NASE, Principal. 6 Sincere congratulations to our graduates of 1948 Through twelve years you have worked together as a team to prepare yourselves for further education and for life in a constantly changing world and an expanding universe You have helped to uphold and extend the traditions and achieve ments of our school. As graduates of Sellersville-Perkasie High School you have reached one of your greatest goals in your lives to date. But you are trained-and We hope inspired-to go on to far greater ones in the diversified careers which you will enter. To your own self be true and remember That they who put their trust in God will never be confounded. LEWIS N. SNYDER, Superviring Principal Administration fa 2
