Principals Mes- sage to the Senior Class of 1943 It is not easy to address a few words to high school graduates in these days of war and hate and death. The usual good luck message, full of congratulation and praise full of facile form- ulae for success and wealth, would sound hol- low indeed to young men and women who. in a few weeks or months. will themselves be in the armed forces or serving their country in some other capacity. My wishes for you. therefore, are not for wealth and position and success. They are rather for life, and life in a world free of prejudice. of hate, of greed, of fear and of exploitation of the weak by the strong. May you become good citizens and good parents in such a world, with as keen a realization of your obligations and duties in those capacities as of your rights and privileges. May you be honest and fearless, morally and intellectually: may you love justice and decency: may you hate intolerance wherever you lind it. and may you love God and our fellow man. These are my wishes and my hopes for you: their realiza- tion is in your hands and those of God. Luo R. I3oU'1'1N kjk K-if Seven

IX Superintendenfs Message to the Senior Class of 1943 Your graduation from high school comes at a time which is without doubt the most unsettled and uncertain in the his- tory of our country, a time which means the end of formal education for some of you. and for many of you, entrance into the armed services of our country. Life at best is a strug- gle between the forces of good and the forces of evil, and you are entering that struggle at a time when the forces of evil seem in the ascendant. You will enter into a badly disordered national life with evidences of breakdown and suffering in many countries of this l world. T The times call for leadership of the right kind. leadership which has always been a vital need in a democracy like ours. Certain it is that we shall need forceful and enlightened leadership not only in the realm of national affairs, but also in our own local affairs. You will in a very few years be called upon to assume this civic duty. To be genuinely effective and influential that leadership should be intelligent, vigorous, and honesty, tolerance of the views and opinions of and above all. integrity of character, the most im- and thrift. Ambition. l think of as the will to honor, or financial independence. lndustry is the courageous. It must come from clear thinking, others, a pleasing and commanding personality, portant assets of which are ambition, industry, attain something worthy, as knowledge, power, earnest application of one's self toward his ambition, and must be backed up by a willingness to work. Thrift includes saving a part of what one earns as a vital element of a successful life. All these you have been acquiring at Warren High School under the instruction, example, and guidance of your teachers. Be true to the teachings learned, and the ideals inculcated during your school days, and you can face the future conndently, assured that you are well equipped to meet the problems and the responsibilities that will be yours in the years that lie ahead. That you meet and solve these problems with credit to yourselves and your school is my earnest wish and prayer. JoHN M. HARK1Ns
