Ju cwtoxa Vxdley. Miyfi School WILLIAM V. QODSM ALL. PRINCIPAL PORT ROYAL PENNSYLVANIA. February 2b, 1945 Dear Class of '45: No matter how pleasant may have been the experiences of the past, the challenge of the days ahead presents to the youth of today, an opportunity for service to the nation and to mankind heretofore unknown. Be not disillusioned, however, as to the future. You dare not hope that it will be one free from discouragements and temptation. You will be called upon to aid in deciding the increasingly difficult problems which are chal- lenging the progress of civilization. Since making mistakes is a characteristic of mankind, you will be in error many times, but we are hopeful that the influences which have touched you in your school life may have been such that a repetition of mistakes will be rendered negligible. Whatever your path for the future may be, may it be clothed in the garments of honesty and noble purpose. That the life of each of you shall be a challenge to the best in future generations is my sincere wish. Sincerely, -4-
