Does it mean to do only work that is accepted as honest in the eyes of the world? Or does it mean that if we have not lived to the full limit of our capabilities, have not left our “foot-prints on the sands of time,” we have not been employed in honest toil. The fabric of a successful life would not long survive were we to forget and abandon the ideals and habits formed in a pleasant school enviroment such as we have enjoyed during our four years of high school life. We know we may sometimes fail in our purpose just as others have failed, even when we are trying hardest. But we hope to grow in wisdom and happiness until our most golden dreams shall become realities. “Honor lies in honest toil.” In choosing our life’s work, let us keep in mind this motto, and remember that we will not be found wanting in the eyes of the world if our path has lain in honest toil. “Act well your part, Therein all honor lies.” Naomi Buskirk ‘22. ........................................................................................................Ill....... hduil' 25
