SuperinTendenT's Message The purpose oT educaiion is noT To make IiTe easy buT To make men sTrong. This quoTaTion Tells boITer Than I could whaT The Teachers oT The Sprague I-Iigh School have really been aiming aT. We have Tried To graduaTe young men and young women who will noT look Tor soTT spoTs in IiTe buT will rneeT The hard Task: oT IiTe wiTh sTrengTh and conTidence. Again I assure you, sTudenTs and graduaTes, ThaT you are sTronger Than you realize, ThaT you have a vasT reservoir oT courage which you can Tap as needed, and ThoT your lives will reTIecT crediT on your parenTs, your school, and your communiTy. -R. K. OImsTod PrincipaI's Message To The GracIuaTes oT I954: I've been siTTing here aT my desk wondering iusi' whaT I could say ThaT wouIdn'T sound like a IecTure and yeT mighT serve as an inspiraTion in The days To come. f'XTTer all, we've had Tour years Togeiherg long ones Tor you, perhaps, buT mighTy shorT ones Tor me, and in Those Tour years, you have grown Trorn The awkward adoIescenT inTo young men and women. One oT The hurdles oT IiTe has been accomplished and you have your diploma, a piece oT sheepskin which acTuaIIy means IiTTIe unless you have wiTh iT Two Things which I consider all imporTanT. The TirsT aT These is a sense oT moral values, knowing The difference Isofween righT and wrong and Trying To apply The Golden Rule To every day living. Your IiTe can- noT Truly be o success wiThouT This. The second poinT is very similarg and To me is Tor more imporTanT Than The acguisiTion oT subiecT maTTer. I reTer To good habiTs and aTTi- Tudes. IT you have The righT habiTs and aTTiTudes Toward sTudy, work, and ploy you'II geT along in IiTe. To The exTenT ThoT we have Tailed To give you good habiTs and aTTiTudes, To ThaT exTenT The school has Tailed you. Abe Lincoln once said, I am noT bound To win, buT I am bound To be True. I am noT bound To succeed, buT I am bound To live up To whaT IighT I have. I musT sTand wiTh he who sTands righT, sTand wiTh him when he is righT, and parT wiTh him when he is wrong. There is a IoT oT ThoughT in This guoTaTion-aImosT ci philosophy oT IiTe. I sincerely believe you have gone a long way in esTabIishing such a philosophy Tor yourseIT. When, in TuTure years, you Think of Sprague High School, I hope iT is more Than a building-iT represenTs a sTandard oT values. O. K. Palmer. gk il? il?
