The Senior Class tool: as its creed that of Edgar A. Guest My Creed To live each day as though I may never see the morrow come ; to be strict with myself, but patient and lenient with others; to give the advantage, but never to ask for it; to be kindly to all, but kindlier to the less fortunate, to respect all honest employment, to remember always that my life is made easier and better by the service of others, and to be grateful. To be tolerant and never arrogant; to treat all men with equal courtesy; to be true to my own in all things; to make as much as I can of my strength and the day ' s opportunity, and to meet disappointment without resentment. To be friendly and helpful wherever possible; to do, without display of temper or of bitterness, all that fair conduct demands; to keep my money free from cunning or the shame of a hard bargain ; to govern my actions so that I may fear neither reproach nor misunderstanding nor words of malice or envy, and to maintain, at whatever temporary cost, my own self-respect. To keep faith with God, my fellow-men, and my country. Edgae a. Guest. Eighteen
