SEMAPHORE 1950 To the Graduates of 1950 May I congratulate you upon the courage and perseverance you have shown in completing the four years of high school to win your diploma. I know that you will never regret it. However, after receiving your diploma, please don ' t forget the debt you owe your parents for their sacrifice and encouragement which made it possible. Graduation is often called Commencement, because it means that you are be- ginning a new school, that of Life. Hitherto you have been sheltered and counselled by parents and teachers but now, unsupported, you must stand on vour own feet. In this new school you will find invaluable the high school training you have received in courtesy, character, effort, industry, and the ability to assume responsibility. And please remember always that prejudice, racial or religious, has no place in real life decisions. Whether you will or no, your every word and act from now on will reflect upon your High School because you are now graduates of this institution. For the sake of other graduates, past and future, as well as your own. let your deeds be such that you and they may be proud of them. In closing. 1 want vou to know that your High School always stands ready to assist you in any way that it can and you should feel free to contact it whenever the need arises. Mav I wish vou all the best of success and Godspeed. Sincerely. Howard R. Randall, Principal Stoughton High School 30
