EPRESSION-—millions of men out of work, whole families starving, suffering thruout the entire civilized world—a desperate state of affairs Snug and contented in our warm homes, we students read in our papers terrible tales of want and privation; of the deeds of men driven to desperation by cold and hunger We sigh, My, my, these are sad times. Then we turn to the sporting page, and, becoming engrossed in an account of a current football game, give not another thought to the affairs of the world This is only natural; what has a high-school student to do with the depression Carefree and unaffected by world troubles, our only worry in times when thousands of people don't know from where their next meal is coming, is whether we will have steaks or lamb chops for dinner In about a month, two hundred seniors will be graduated. Some, more fortunate than others will enter college either in February or next September, but a great many will be forced to surrender themselves to the none-too-tender mercies of a harsh world They will matriculate at the School of Hard Knocks; and at the present moment the knocks are harder and more frequent Jobs are scarce; wages, if any, are low. A great many of the clas f February, 1933, will join the great Army of the Unemployed. It is a known fact, however, that during periods of depression public institutions such as libraries and night-schools increase greatly in popularity During these periods of forced inactivity many people find ample opportunity for reading and study Therefore, to those seniors who will not be able to enter college, we say take all possible advantage of your spare time; use our public library, go to night-school, attend lectures and con certs. In doing these things you will acquire either some vocational skill valuable in helping you to compete with those who have the advantage of a higher education, or some cultural satisfaction in the pursuit of knowledge, or the enjoyment of beautiful things We wish to take this opportunity to express the feeling of the whole of the class of February, 1933, in bidding good-bye to the members of the faculty who have worked with us during past four years. То them we owe all that we have obtained from our high-school career There fore, it is with deep emotion that we say, Farewell, friends and teachers.’
