gf-4222523124022 KF? 251312395 ESQ W ii To the Girls and Boys of the Graduating Class lil of January, 1927 l l Y heartiest congratulations are offered to you, individually 5 and collectively, on this the occasion of your graduation 4'- from Textile High School. Both you and your parents may be proud and happy in realizing that sacrifices and endeavors have at last brought a large measure of success. It is a time of happiness and rejoicing for all, for you, for your parents and for your teachers. Graduation exercises are often termed commencement exer- cises, and appropriately so. They mark a period when the young man or young woman commences a new type of work. For you, Graduates of the Class of january, 1927, that new work may be in the business world or in some higher institution of learning. To whatever field you may go, the kindly wishes of your ,teachers accompany you. May continued success meet your efforts. It is appropriate on this occasion that I leave with you some thought to be carried with you into the new field. In this, let me be intensely practical. The greater number of you are to enter the industrial or business world. You are going out to make a living. In plain language, you are going out to sell your energy, that you may obtain money with which to satisify your wants. The energy that you sell may be physical energy, mental energy, or a combina- tion of the two. You will receive so much per hour, or per day, or per week for your energy, depending upon its value. The value of your energy will be dependent upon your knowledge, your training and your skill. In Textile, your teachers have made an endeavor to add to your knowledge, to give you training, and in a small measure, to develop your skill. Please remember that your present knowledge, training and skill does not warrant your expecting or demanding high wages or great responsibilities. You are still young and have a great deal to learn. You must be willing to start at the bottom of the ladder and learn the game. You must increase your knowledgeg' receive more training and develop greater skill. As knowledge, training and skill increase, you will find that the money in your pay-envelope will increase in proportion. Therefore, Get wisdom, and with all thy wisdom, get understanding. CProverbs, IV.J In your future careers, may your ideals remain unshakeng may you have courage to attempt and courage to endure, may your K faces ever be brightened with the glow of successful achievement. I0 Yours, in that thought of Textile, AUSTIN G. CLARK, Teacher in Charge of the Thirty-Second Street Annex. D5 EOEFEPCEQEF: ?ZOE95 FZOCI 7 ig..-
