THE STONEHAM HIGH SCHOOL AUTHENTIC I M}t (irtgtnal hm | 3r£jstbcufs hbrcss Millard D. Tajdor Parents, Friends, Mr. Watson, Teachers and Classmates : We have advanced thus far in the steep ascent of the. lofty mountain of life. We have reached the culmination of our youthful desires. High above us is the zenith of our careers. Below us are but the days aiKl short years of preparation. We are not at the top, but we are climbing. Up to this notch of the peak which we are scaling, we have gone hand in hand. Never has there been a more united, more consistent class than the one which is marching forth today. But soon the blessed ties which have bound us together must be severed. We are fast leaving behind us the mecea of our youthful whims and fantasies. New trails will be blazed, new footpaths will be won. Onward, ev er onAvard, until Ave reach the acme of our ambitions, and, AA’hen at the top, we aauII reflect upon the days, the weeks, the months, 3 ' es, and the A’ears of preparation. | But do AA’e dare to go any farther j Avithout expressing our deepest appre- ciation to those who gave so freely and abundantl}’’ of their ability and means that we might haA e more copious oppor- tunities than they? To 3’ ' Ou, O parents, we express our heart-felt gratitude for the privileges you have given us and the possibilities of undertaking the beginning of the long climb. We realize full3 ' , though it may not haA’e appeared so at times, that we have caused 3mu no small amount of trouble, 3’et somehoAv yon Avere Avilling to bear up under the strain. Then there are our teachers, our prin- cipal, our superintendent, and other school officials. Certainly tlie3 ' deserve our solemn and sincere declarations of the fact that Ave appreciate the trials and tribulations Avith Avhich Ave tested their never-ceasing patience. I laii3 times we came like lost sheep to them with our mathematical, historical and personal problems, and just as often Ave found our paths made straight and our troubles lightened. But this must be a, simple address of AA elcome. In arranging our program for this afternoon, much thought was giA en to the nature of its contents. We ! have added and subtracted until the finished product measured up to our i ideals. Not 01113% Ave believed, should ! it be of interest to you but in a pecu- ' liar sense it should be a challenge to us and an inspiring summons to the Avorld i of opportunit3 ' but tribulation Avhich I the Apostle John tells ' us is aAvaiting our I approach. j With this thought in mind we entreat j 3’ou to share the procedure of the after- j noon Avith us, and Ave welcome you from the inner-most depths of our hearts to this, the last day ' of our high school j career. reams Charlotte Patch A small boy Avhen asked if he kneAV the definition of a dream replied, “Sure. A dream is movie pictures when you’re asleep.” This is an easy way of su3’- ing “A dream is a series of thoughts, images, or emotions occurring during sleep, or any suming of reality or events occurring to one sleeping,” as the dictionary tells us. Profound and therefore healthy sleep is accompanied by a complete lapse of mentation. It is only when Ave are hav- ing light or troubled sleep that Ave dream. Have 3TOU ever noticed that during a night Avhen “3mu hardly slept a Avink” 3 ou dreamed a great deal? Dreams, contrary to opinion, do not arise from OA ' er-eating unless that in- dulgence is accompanied by pain. They arise from the stimulation of some sense organ rather than in the brain itself. Patterns made by the dust and the throbbing of blood in the ears can never be wholly Aviped out; scraps of , previous coiiA ' ersation or e ’ents are al- ■ AA’a3’S preslent in the memory. They stimulate the eyes, the ears or memory as the ease may be. Once a dream has [ 2 ]
