14 PURPLE AND WHITE ECHO Address to Undergraduates . . It is a pleasure and a great honor to address you, undergraduates, in behalf of my class. Your studies thus far must have taught you that the road of life is hard and difficult, and only the ones who are willing to put their utmost into their work can ever hope for success. That word success is a difficult word to define. One definition which you may find practical states: Success consists in making the most of one ' s opportunity. We know from obser- vation and reading that the person who makes the most of each passing minute will achieve success more quickly than the one who kills time at home, in school, or on the job. As all of you realize, your remaining days at Smith Academy are limited. Some of you people have one year; others, two; and freshmen, three. Let me say this to all of you, freshmen, sopho- mores, and juniors: You will not always have your parents and teachers to look after you, to help you carry your burden, or to assist in solving your problems. You must remember that your high school days are days of preparation and growth. Unless you decide early not to depend on someone else, you will delay and reduce the rewards of edu- cation that are yours. Therefore, make the most of every opportunity to develop self-reliance and ac- quire knowledge. Do your best in the time that is left to you, so that you will be prepared for the future. The Class of 1948 wishes you success in this undertaking. Richard Jandzinski Presentation of Class Gift Four years ago we entered Smith Academy. Now our high school life is finished, and we are leaving school, conscious of the fact that we live in a time when education is more vitally needed than ever before. But as we go, we all find abundant cause to remember our school with gratitude, for in Smith Academy we have received a good education. As a symbol of our gratitude, and also because we would like to be remembered as a part of Smith Academy, we present this sum of money for the Athletic Fund, with the hope that it will not only serve as a memory of the Class of 1948, but will also be a help to the students of Smith Academy who par- ticipate in sports in the years to come. Richard Jandzinski
