LOOKING FORWARD They do me wrong who say I come no more, When once I knock and ail to find you in: For every day I stand outside your door And bid you wait, and rise to fight and win. Judge Walter Malone—'Opportunity.' Members of the class of 1943 of the Waterloo School will be joined by several hundred thousand other boys and girls who will be graduated this Spring. All of those completing this year have demon- strated a certain amount of perseverence and determination to succeed that others have not shown. Many thousands started twelve years ago to obtain an education. Many dropped by the wayside for one reason or another. While congratulations are in order at this point for those who had the determination to complete a task, most of these young people will soon become aware of the need to continue the learning process. Here- tofore, parents, teachers, and friends have been near to encourage and in many cases push them along. In fact, in some cases, a large share of whatever scholastic success is achieved may be traced to the understand- ing of some interested parent or teacher. The graduate, to succeed, must acquire, for the most part, instruction in an informal way from the school of experience, but this school is an exacting teacher. Fortunately, the fundamentals they have acquired in the public school will fortify them for the problems of the business world, the military service, or further formal education. The regretable part of commencement time is that this period brings to mind for the first time the startling realization that much time and energy has been wasted. We have had opportunities to discuss school problems with those who have graduated. The consensus was that they wished they had made better use of their time. The importance of this reflection leads one to assume that a lesson has been learned and the in- telligent individual will recognize and respond correctly to additional opportunities. • To those who will be graduated our advice is not to overlook op- portunities. Select a worthwhile goal. Then, remain steadfast in a deter- mination to reach it, taking advantage of each opportunity as it presents itself. To those who will continue in school, make every minute count in your behalf. Supt. Charles A. Overmeyer. Page 10
