:iff 1... ffeaaazasfer is ,Message IT is my sincere hope ThaT every boy graduaTing from Thompson Academy can go forTh inTo The vvorld vviTh confidence and a relish for life. I vvanT you To have enfhusiasm, courage, and an abiding faiTh in The imporTance of your efforTs, no maTTer whaT field of endeavor you choose, carry inTo iT Those homely virtues of honesTy, inTegriTy, and decency which are The manTle of a real man. Have compassion for oThers, respecT for The fundamenTal righfs of all people, and louild abouT yourself a solid core of real friends. Take The Time To savor The richness of life and The beauTy of Things you see, feel and Touch. Don'T loe afraid of The unknown, have The courage To be yourself, and never pass up an opporTuniTy To learn. Life is all Too shorT as it is and much of The pleasure of living is ofTen missed-excused only by hasTe and The artificial exciTemenT of poorly conceived imperaTives. Make a good life for yourself and make life good for people around you. All of you in The splendid Class of 1962 have The capaciTy To live such lives and I challenge you To live up To what I expecT.
