MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1941 s I feel deeply that my duty to you as a teacher and as your principal throughout your entire high school experience has been to point out to vou both in word and in deed the best way of life as I see it. No doubt at times my mo-i- lives may have been misunderstood, and I may have failed miserably in this duty. However, may I leave this final thought with you. 'Re hear much of Democracy in our day, and wre should cherish the fact that we are allowed to enjoy its blessings. » However, you and I must keep in mind that Democracy strengthens the individual by requiring much of him and that Democracy does not make one man as good as another; it merely seeks to remove all artificial barriers and to assist every man to amount to as much as his ability, character, and industry permits. This is our heri-I tage; cherish it with your whole being. : Pajre Five
