industrial world. We hope that the lessons taught you here will remain with you that those with whom you come in contact will be made happier from knowing and being associated with you. In taking your places in the professional and social life of the com- munity you cannot hope to avoid at least some of the reverses and dis- appointments that have come and will continue to come, to all of us. Let not these discourage nor overwhelm you. Rather let them be the means of developing and strengthening those mental and spiritual qual- ities that are essential in the growth and stability of character. Your success in life will depend, in a large measure, on how you meet the difficult situations of life and the spirit in which you strive to overcome them. In our games and sports we emphasize that it is not the winning of the race that counts but how the race was run. So it is in life. The attainment of material wealth or social position are not necessarily a standard of success. Rather it is the way in which they were won-the way the game of life was played-that measures success. Your four years in Washington High School have been, I trust, happy ones, and as the years go by you will look back upon them with fond recollections. I, too, have spent happy years in the old school and my memories of Washington High and the Class of Ianuary 1942 will always be pleasant ones: I prize most highly your kindness in making me an honorary member of the Class. We are, in a sense, graduating together and l will always feel that I am an integral part of the class. May Divine Providence smile upon you and bring peace and con- tentment. -HUGH I, BOYD
