It is significant that the completion of their school or college work should be called commencement. But commencements do not stop when our formal educaticn is completed. They recur continu- ally. The conclusion of anything in life is the beginning of something else. Endings and beginnings in life are continuous. We cannot avoid them, but how we meet them is all important. We can be happy or sad. If we look backwards we may be satisfied, if we look into the future we may be dis- contented.

H.- 1935 LIFE IS LIKE A PICTURE Life weuld be a beautiful picture, if we would only strive to paint it well. There are people who lament, “Oh why was I born, life is such a drudge?” Certainly it is if we keep on thinking so, never trying to see the sunny side. If all the people had this in mind, think how terrible life would be. The ones who try to make life worth while socn find the world a very happy place in which to live. Young people should go to high school with two ideals in mind: (a) to develop the individual to his greatest capacity; (b) to learn the respensibility of an individual to society. The four years which you may spend in high school have a money value and a cultural value. To paint life’s picture well you must na- turally be more concerned with the cultural value. Familiarize yourself with Nature, make Art your most intimate friend. Learn to appreciate the works of others and to criticize your cwn. Make hosts of friends among those of your own age who are to be leaders in all walks of life. Learn to lose yourself in generous enthusiasm and co-op- eration with others for commen ends, to learn manners from students who exemplify the highest ideals. Train yourself to fill each day with countless deeds of. kindness, and love toward God and your neighbor. Your four years in high schocl, the best four years of your life, offer you golden op- portunities for thus painting your picture well. If you grasp these opportunities and make the most of them, then indeed will yeur life’s picture be a work of Art, one which will be admired for many years after you have gone to your eternal reward.—’36. O A True Gentleman A true gentleman is a man whose ccn- duct proceeds from good will and whose self- control is equal to all emergencies. A gentleman is well mannered. He dces not make:the poor man conscious of his poverty, the obscure man of his obscurity or any man of his inferiority or deformity. He is humbled himself if he is compelled to humble another. He does nct flatter the wealthy or boast of his own possessions and achievements. He speaks frankly, but al- ways with sincerity and sympathy. He is a man whose deed follows his word. He thinks of the rights and feelings of others rather than of his own. He appears well in any company. A gentleman is a man with whom hceror is sacred.—’36. Studies Oh! Freshmen, we give thee warning, Of the studies befronting you; But it will be O. K. we are sure, If you study them through and through. You may think that Latin is easy, But wait till you have to take second vear, You’ll change ycur mind in a hurry, And say that it is the hardest subject here. If you like Algebra I hepe you can say That you will like Geometry In the very same way. I know you will like History For although you may think, That it isn’t very interesting, Still it will teach you to think. . —’37. 0) THE GREEN EYE In our daily lives we are constantly en- countering those people who are afflicted with this horrible disease, “the green eye.” Cain had it, so did Saul. It is the most con- temptible of all mental and moral diseases. If sarcasm and sneers could kill, plenty of men would provide work fcr the undertakers. Don’t belittle your neighbor because he is more successful than you. Keep out of the class of little people who pelt mud at their more fortunate neighbor. People will re- spect you, and you must respect ycurself if you forbid jealousy to betray manhood. Jealousy is cruel. They say that when a bee stings, it forfeits its life. Jealousy is truly suicide slowly committed. Those afflicted with this horrible disease, “the green eye” are dangerous models. Do not cepy them in your life. The world idolizes success and usually is not particular as to how it is obtained. If you want to know whether a man is worthy of emulation, draw a little closer to the pedestal. Be careful ef your ideals. Befcre you make your cast, get a MAN for your subject or you may perpetuate the feature of an object, a thing or even a devil.—’35. o— The most encouraging thing about our troubles is that most of them never happen. ) The darkest hours in any man’s life is when he sits down to plan how to make money witheut earning it. —0o Loss of temper is loss of sense.

Make every day a commencement by living in the joy of the things at hand. Have no fear for the future nor regret for the past. Make the best of today. To- day’s acts will fulfill the joys and cancel the sorrows cf tomorrow. Make the most of to- day’s opportunities, and tomorrow’s will take care of themselves. Do not hang on them, it is time to let go. Do not grasp into the future. There’s a time for everything, When we resist natural change we become unhappy. Today’s werk and play are the joycus ones we perhaps dreamed about yes- terday. So, it is commencement time for us when- ever we willingly let go of something whose purpose is served. There is nothing that can so greatly bless us as the blessings of teday. Today, is your commencement, if you ap- preciate today’s blessings and accept them without regrets for the changes thev bring. —’3h. AEs ark tl CO-OPERATION Let us first consider what is meant by the word co-operation. Does it mean one person working to help ancther; or does it mean each one working for a com mon cause in which all are deeply interested? Are there some things in which a great number of the student body can enjoy and from which they may secure profit? If so, should we not co-operate in advancing these things? It is, as we all know, well nigh impcssible for any one activity to bring joy and profit to each individual; therefore, whatever may bring the most joy and profit to the greatest number of individuals in the school is of the greatest value and should have the hearty Support and co-cperation of all. Would it not be fine for each student to check over any activities which are now in school and judge the number of people who are benefited by them and in what way? May- be some one may suggest some new worth- while activities which the school might adept. Maybe a way may be found to secure true hearty co-operation of every student in every worth-while project. Do Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores and Freshies all work together so that each in turn may benefit? Yes, cce-operation is a wonderful and im- portant quality which every school should possess. Do we have it in §. J. H.?—’35. ee It is just as well to reserve mean thoughts until tomorrow. o7e7e7eo oe APPLYING ONE’S SELF Did you ever walk into the class room and look about to see how many were really anply- ing themselves? If so, you may have some idea of hew many students really know how to study. The word “study” means more than we ordinarily think it does. It is a compli- ment to anyone to say that he can study in the true sense of the word. Study means to concentrate on what one is really reading. Reading is gleaning the contents of the printed page. But we must not think that merely to study means to apply one’s self. No, we must learn, then put into practice what we have learned. While in the grades we learn to read and after that we read to learn.. Do we simply store up knowledge? No, we read to learn to help us in our daily contacts with the world and its people. One who reads censtantly we term a “bookworm.” Book- worms unfortunately possess. stored-up knowledge. Do we live to learn or learn to live? We do both: but the trouble is that too frequently we do not practice what we know. So let us make the best of life and apply c urselves to the tasks that are put before us. Let us work with all our might.—’35. —— () S-uccess T-ruthfulness J -ustice Q-pportunity S -incerity E -fforts P-rudence Honesty Hope [ -deals (G-enerosity H-umility ( ) The only thing to be done with truth is to accept it. In whatever hard, unwelcome, unlovely guise it may come into your life, you must face it. If it is truth, it is useless to deny it or to ignore it. It must be honestly taken into account and must be reckened.
