The greatest use of Is to spend it for something that will outlast it!” ‘ 7 you smile at me, l will understand, ’Cause that is something, everybody everywhere does In the same language” Prayer for a Graduate You are about to enter this world on your own Strengthened by years of learning. Look onward to a new future, Reach out and grasp the dream which finally is within arm’s length. It is there . . . Just reach far enough, Strive to obtain it. Wisdom is not the sole possession of the mind, The heart shares it also. In rendering judgement, remember the mind within your heart, For it will provide the most valuable appraisal that can be obtained. Understanding is born of the heart’s wisdom. It is understanding of the heart that paves the pathways of peace. Use your wisdom to good advantage. Be not skeptical if it; He will guide you. Trust in Him. Help others to grow with your knowledge, The sharing of it will help you to grow also. Reap what you have sown . . . then plant again .. . Wisdom’s harvest is many fold. Look ahead, but forget not the past ... In its experience lies the key to a richer future. The dream of this future will soon be reality; you are now one step closer to it . . . Do not become discouraged, for granted, it is not an easy quest. Remember, though that those who love you will do so throughout your life. This security of sincere love will surely help you to achieve your highest goals. You are on your way to a new life .. . Be strong and set in your ambitions. May God bless and guide you in all your endeavors. Lynn Euzenas the- of 192? NINA ADDINGTON Beauty is soft whispering, she speaks in our spirit.

V 113 Your children are not your children They are the sons and daughters of life’s longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, As though they are with you yet they belong not to you. You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls. For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.

Making friends for the world to see Let the people know you got what you need; With a friend at hand you will see the light . . . If your friends are there, then everything’s all right. It seems to me a crime that we should age, These fragile times should never slip us by; A time you never can or shall erase, As friends together watch their childhood fly. Making friends for the world to see Let the people know you got what you need; With a friend at hand you will see the light . . . If your friends are there, then everything’s all right.

Broken in a million pieces, Shattered, scattered far and near. Now and then along life’s pathway, Lo! Some shining fragments fall; But there are so many pieces No one ever Finds them all. Life is a scrapbook, torn and old, In which our little lives are told, And, when the twilight shadows fall, This is the sweetest thing of all; To turn the pages of the years. Remembering with happy tears The faithful love, the perfect friend. These things we treasure to the end.” God Bless and much Happiness in the years To come.
