T0 THE SENICRS . from Mr. Patin AM inclined to reminisce a bit today-to think of former seniors who now occupy positions of trust and influence in world affairs. There are a college professor, an actress, an artist, lawyers, doctors. leaders in many professions and vocations. Yet Shaker High is but a trifle over two decades old. As I recall their names and faces. it seems to me that most ot those who have succeeded did not attain their high positions by bril- liance of mind alone, but rather through hard work and their ability to adjust to new situations. In spite of depressions and other economic ills, it is still possible for you to achieve in this Democracy of ours. Application, hard work, and sacrifice are fundamental virtues and count more than accident of birth or inheritance. You who have chosen your vocations are fortunate. for that has stimulated your accomplishment. You who have not yet determined your Held of interest will do well to get a broad cultural background. No one can tell what the demands of the next decade will be. You need to turn your efforts to account-to capitalize on an investment in education. The Class of 1939 will long be remembered in Shaker for its contribution to the life of the school. Senior leadership in the student council and in music. dramatics, and journalism has been outstanding. You have made your deliberations felt in a reorganized curriculum. Come back to see us often. Give us the benefit of your experi- ence in the light of mature thought. Tell us what could have been done differently-to have given you a better preparation. To each and every one of you l wish the best that life can give. I shall be proud of your successes and hold you to a high standard. Affectionately yours. R. B. Putin
