WILLIAMSON SCHOOL 7 lining anh Boing Q EAL living makes necessary the doing of some worthy thing. The Af person who is not willing to take his share of responsibility by f way of performing some service is not living as he should. This . is true of all men, and applies with unusual force to those who, like VVilliamson graduates, have received a special preparation A A for life. The members of the Class of 1918 go into the world at a time when every person should give freely and unreservedly of his talent. Each member of the class has been fitted by training to enter the field of industry and to give much needed service. There is ample opportunity and great needg skilled workmen are required on every hand and conscientious service is at a premium. Young men who have enjoyed the opportunity of special training should go into the business world with the ideal of efficient work as their goal. If efficient work is the motive of one's conduct, the financial reward will always be sufficient, and the worker will enjoy a satisfaction which can be gained by no other means. Such a motive as- sures the happy combination of real living and worthy doing. .+P W . C QQ, D 1 z Q ,O Q2 12? I am wishing for the Class of 1918 that joy which arises from living and doing. Let Commencement Day be your day of accepting without reserve the responsibility of living conscientiously, and of doing faithfully those things which the world bids you do. Sincerely yours, JAMES A. PRATT, Director.
