Benita is always studying We re sure she 11 be a success How she can be so industrious, Is hard tr- believe, we ll confess Next is Julia a good sport, Attended almost every game, Faithfully she cheered Our team to greater fame Classmates we say Farewell Which did I not mention ? Virginia Well Yes that s me To me pay no attention I have sand the most important things For the class of 1951 Except Let s be the best class From the doors of St John High to pass Valedzctory Much has been said tonight of our past life at school and I feel that there ns nothing to be added to the words that have been spoken much has likewise been prophesied fOr the future, and of that too I do not think I have anything more to say There only re main the words that are hardest of all to frame and for some reason I fxnd myself un able to say any of them at all well These are the words we must use to bid our last farewell They mean so much but seem to express so little once put into speech When we entered hxgh school as Freshmen our goal seemed far off in the very distant future, but after four busy and happy years of high school life we find our selves at the end of the trail before we realize xt Now that we have attained our goal, we are stunned at what lies before us Never before have we raced the insecurity of being on our own Never again wxll we be able to rest in the secure harbor of school activities and friendships I must take this opportunity tomght to thank everyone who has helped us reach our goal To our parents We can pay our debt to you only by trying to be a success in everything we attempt to do whether it be small or large The memory of what you have done for us shall spur us on whenever failure seems to be at hand To our teachers You have given us the education we must take with us throughout the remainder of our lives The knowledge we attain now wxll be secured from experience rather than from books We will try our best to profit by what you taught us Members of the Board of Educatxon We have used the facilities of this school only because you made them possible Without your help we could never have enjoyed the rights and privileges that were given to us Undergraduates As we bid our farewell to you we feel a tinge of sadness n our hearts We have enjoyed your companionship throughout the school years and hope that you will always feel the same about us And now fellow graduates it is time for our last farewell Not only must we say good bye to school lxfe and all that goes with xt but also to each other Always remember the days that we spent together and never forget that the friendships that we formed in school wxll be lasting ones To morrow we will not face the world as a class but as individual men and women of the world Do not be afraid but face each day with renewed strength and courage The time is here, so now in behalf of the class of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty One I bid you our last Farewell 30 ' as I l I ' l o ' ' I I 9 - ' . - u 0 f I n - D g I ' I 0 c 0 o I . . . - , - I 1 0 - .- f I . u . f O , D . . . . , - o . . s o e - . . . e I . . 9 o o . . . . . . . . . o n s . . . . . . u e ' . .
