fiwzf, -'Hit fq QE.. llglif-' A ,. Alf? F' .3131 I V 2'5 .-T, ,xl SALUTATORY School life is a stage where each student plays his little part in the drama of education. To-night we assemble for one of the last scenes of our formal education. To you who have 'informer years attended various ceremonies of graduation this occasion may seem like the same old thing , but to us, the actors of the drama, it is a thrilling event. It is our first attempt at staging a High School Class Day exercise and the scene is as wonderful to us as if we were the first class to appear before an admiring public. To you this may be but an hour of pleasant entertainment--at least we trust it may be pleasant--but to us it is a scene of triumph. In behalf of the members of the Class of 1940, I welcome you to this scene of our final efforts. Had it not been for you, our parents especially, and the sacrifices whichyou were willing to make for us we would not have the privelege of being upon this stage before you tonight. Had it not been for all your combined efforts and the pushing, the pull- ing, the boosting and the assistance givenus by the patient and capable members of the high school faculty we students would not have been able to play our little part in the drama of education. This is indeed OUR day. Even the faculty members fade into insig- nificance beside us. We stand here, fearlessly before them, free to speak as we will without the intimidating thought that theymay call us down tomorrow for levity of thought or action. Though we have spent many hours in preparation for tonight, still in the excitement and agi- tation of the moment we may hesitate or blunder. If ,youare not overmuoh impressed with our looks we ask you to remember that True greatness is within, not without . Should you not be greatly moved by our words of wisdom and oratory, we would remind you that Still watersru.ndeep . At any rate, if we are not especially distinguished as a class, we are proud to be here this eveningg we are both proud and pleased to welcome you to these, our ceremonials of victory. Earl Mus ser f
