, khaw-r iyw m4 W ,. A message to tbebigb School 05rabuate In a few months the high schools all over the country will send forth those of their students Who have labored successfully during the past four years; To these young people the future seems bright. Youth and ambition are theirs, making the im- gpulse to do, strong within them. The feelings of regret over the breaking of old ties and associations are overshadowed 'by antici- pation-s for the future. They have reached what seemed a far off goal to be gained only after great effort. Fortunate indeed are those Who have reached this goal and especially so if they have been brought to realize that the vantage groUnd gained enables them to advance to still better and higher things, that they- are among the favored few to whom theifuture promises much, if they take advantage of their opportunities. In this state, especially, where these opportunities are so numerdus, many are tempted to end their student days With their high school graduation and to enter at once into the active affairs of life. The student Who does this, however, is giving .up the greatest of all opportunities, namely, the opportunity to secure a liberal educa- tion at a time when he is best fitted to receive it and When he is able to store up educational capital with the least expenditure of time and energy. It is now pretty generally conceded that from the standpoint ot material gain alone higher education pays. On the non-material side the gain is vastly greater, measured in terms of a broader and saner view of life. Which must increase many-fold the possibility for usefulness and happiness. The high school graduate stands at the threshold of the broader and richer life. In most cases he may enter if he will and in so doing is putting aside present limited success for the sake of greater future success, In other words, he is giving him- self preliminary training which will enable him to go far beyond I4 liitkix X ix i :3 'X; 3:.

L Our university is designed primarily for the young people of Oregon. It is a youthful institution compared to many, since it was founded only thirty-one years ago, but its founding dates: back almost, if not quite, to the pioneer days of the state, and its growth and development have kept pace with the growth and de- velopment of the state. It is not a tradition hampered university, and yet it has a wealth of worthy traditions which have come down from the sturdy, pioneer days of its beginners and early struggles and which still exert a potent iniluence on its student life.
