 T H E NORIDESTER •© ••• •-sS ' s» VALEDICTORY I oday ends ihe first great step in our lives. Tomorrow and in the future we will be working and toiling through life in a broader sense, but the things we do will be based on the things we did in our high school days. We are here full of confidence, hopeful, and planning for the future. Most of us will go to college or other institutions of learning. Others may not. but go out into the business world. We know not. but wherever we may go. or whatever we may do. we will always keep in memory dear old Arlington and the high school days at Arlington High. Members of the Faculty: You who have taught us. prepared us. and given us courage, we give you our sincere thanks and appreciation and each one of us will hold the memory of you in our hearts through the years to come. Classmates: After four years of hard work together, we have reached our one objective. From now on we must tread our own path. Let us not fall down because of obstacles, but surmount them on every side and take the good with the bad. Let us be loyal to ourselves and to our teachers by constant striving for success. Schoolmates, faculty and friends, we the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-seven, reaching the end of our high school days, and regretting that the days of companionship have ended, bid you farewell.

 -4iA5s- - ® CTHE noriuester • -sSV » SA1 UTORY It is after four years of school, knit together by ties of friendship, that we come together this afternoon to the parting of the ways. Each one of us has chosen his or her life’s vocation and intends to prepare for the tomorrow by extended study in some college. It is to commemorate this, our first part ing. that we are gathered together this afternoon. It is with a certain touch of sorrow that we leave behind our happy high school days and step out into the future of a new life that we know nothing about. Although we may smile, we do not mean it for it is hard to leave the friendships and the happy days behind. To all of you. who have come to witness the celebration of this, the lirst great step in our lives, we extend a most hearty welcome and we hope you will enjoy what will mean worlds to us.
