To The Members of The Class of 1959 Familiar To you and To every Shad are The words on The Johnson Armory Plaque: The main Thing in Life is To do well someThing which is worTh doing. Care noT for show. Life is Too shorT and Too sacred for make-believe. As you go forTh from These halls To The work and experiences of college and of life, I know of no message of greaTer imporTance for our Time, or of deeper ulTimaTe meaning for your life, which I would share wiTh each of you, or hope To have you use as a guide To your sfeps inTo The fufure, Than The implicaTions behind This well-known moTTo. In order To do someThing well which is worTh doing, There is The necessiTy of personal honesTy in your self-appraisal of whaT, wiThin The possibiliTy of your personal accomplish- menT, is imporTanT. Having seT up a worThwhile goal for yourself, There is Then The essenfial need of puTTing all of your resources of body, mind and spiriT To work for The fullfillmenf of ThaT which you, wiTh The help of AlrnighTy God, have deTermined To be Truly worTh sTreTching yourself Toward. In a day when for all Too many, The show is The Thing, The need for consisTenT and consecrafed efTorT of a quieT sorT is noT easy To incorporaTe inTo one's life. The full realizafion of The sacredness of human exisTence can only come home To a person as he imboclies wiThin himself The deep sense of purpose expressed in our ShaTTuck paraphrase of The Armory moTTo: The main Thing in Life is for us To seek To reflecT in all ThaT we Think, or do, or say, someThing of The spiriT of Jesus ChrisT. To express His SpiriT calls for frequenT conversaTions wiTh Him, and This can be done only where daily reading of ScripTure, personal devoTions, and corporaTe worship have been made an infegral parT of your life. As a Class you have made a mark in your life here, and, in parTicular in your leader- ship of This opening year of our Second CenTury. ThaT mark, however, will only have iTs real significance as you puT inTo pracTice Those expressions of excellence of which you have caughT glimpses, Through The doing well of someThing which is worTh doing. My Thoughfs and prayers will be wiTh you ofTen. We , 13
