. a IACKSON PRICE District Superintendent Most seniors, upon being graduated, look back upon high school as having been a happy, joyful experience which they are sorry to leave. Those who have par- ticipated in sports and dramatics, or in any positions of leadership or service, have enjoyed a personal satis- faction beyond that which comes from their normal course of study alone. There is no happiness more satisfying than the joy of service to others. It brings recognition and power, for power in the individual is generated by the respect and esteem of one's fellow man. Graduation has traditionally been called com- mencementf' Why is it the beginning rather than thc end? Because it has opened the door to opportunity- opportunity to become productiveg to take gainful employmentg to share in building a home, to partic- ipate in community life, or to go on to higher educa- tion and greater service. It has opened the door to the pursuit of happiness! In planning our future, and for our future happi- ness, one principle should always guide our thinking: joy comes in service to others rather than in service to self. It is more blessed to give than to receive. Happiness is a state of mind. It can be very elusive if, in seeking it, the means is selfish. It is often found Where it is least expected. More often than not, those who are looked upon as superior, and who appear to have everything have little of itg while those who are most humble are most happy. There is nothing noble in being superior to another erson. True nobilit comes in bein su erior to our P g former selves. As graduates, you are prepared for a worthy service. My thought to you at parting, then, is each to his own calling, and may you serve Well.
