lllfSSlll5f... TO THE CLASS OF l95O lt has been inspiring to watch how eager, how earnest and how courageous has been the Class of '5O. You have shown and developed these qualities when fear and doubt seemed to be the words of the age. By perseverance and concentration main- tain your courage, earnestness and enthusiasm, and develop character and humanity. l know and appreciate the sacrifices you have made to acquire the training neces- sary to secure your future place in society. You are to be congratulated as well as those who helped you to attain your goal, The opportunities before you are numerous. Be satisfied with slow progress and remember that success is not measured solely by wealth, but rather by the happiness attained through work well done. Happiness consists in being satisfied with what you possess and with what you may achieve. Common sense is the path to success. The best success is not that which comes by accident, but by experience and judgment. Your profession requires sound iudgment, honesty and reliability. Do nothing that will bring dishonor to yourself, your profession or your Alma Mater. For your guid- ance remember that, Knowledge, without common sense, is folly, without method, it is waste, without kindness, it is fanaticism, without religion, it is death. But with common sense, it is wisdom, with method, it is power, with charity, it is beneficence, with religion it is virtue, and life and peace. l bid you farewell as students, and greet you as alumni. lt is my sincere wish that each of you find the success you hoped for and have every right to expect. WILLIAM J. WEARY ,llilllll llll llillll
