PRESlDENT'S MESSAGE To the Class of '48: Everywhere in life, the true question is, not what we gain, but what we do. -CARLYLE. These simple but truthful words seem fitting to present to you upon graduation. There is profound meaning in these words. If we could but partially understand the significance of their meaning, and the great part their application should play in our future, we would live a happier and more worthwhile life. Let us strive to make this maxim a code by which to pattern our actions. Let us realize that our happiness and success are not dependent upon material gain. If we can build within ourselves a feeling of satisfaction that we have taken the most worthwhile course for ourselves and for the welfare and happiness of our fellow man, then we will be happy. If we can follow this simple code, our parents, our teachers, and our friends will be able to look upon our work and be glad that they have strived for so many years to start us on our way. K, N K X I
