 I wish I could distill all the beauty, wisdom, and thought, expressed by great minds for thousands of years, into a magic potion for you to drink; then I should know that whatever happened to you in the future, whether you experience joy or sorrow, riches or poverty, success or failure, you would meet life gallantly, because you would have within yourself a sense of security and power. School life is so short that we know that you stand only on the fringe of knowledge, but if you leave school with the developed power to concentrate and study, then you have in your hands the key to open the doors to all knowledge. I hope you will use that key—the key to a life of effort and contentment. William Channing wrote this poem and called it My Symphony. Could not its title be Happiness? To live content with small means; To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion ; To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; To listen to stars and birds, babes and sages with open heart; To study hard; To think quietly, act frankly, talk gently, await occasions, hurry never; In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common— This is my symphony. May your lives, too, be great symphonies, Graduating Seniors of 1948! 12
