MR. MAIN'S LETTER TO THE SENIORS Members of the Senior Class: The bonds which held us together for the past two years are soon to be severed. Soon, too soon perhaps, you must go out into the various fields of life to battle for ex- istence, a battle in which only the fittest survive. During the past two years we have tried to teach you honesty, self-reliance, and responsibility. If we have succeeded, then it has all been worth while, if we have failed, then despite the high rating of our school, it has failed to meet its responsibility. In the two years that I have known you, I have learned to admire you, individually and as a class. You have faced issues and met them squarely, and have developed a leadership that I did not suspect when I first met you. I can only hope and pray, as I follow you through life, that I see you pick places of honor and responsibility which can only be denied you because you failed to take advantage of your opportunities. I doubt if any class as a whole that ever graduated from W. T. H. S. has shown the leadership you have. Always alert, most of you have measured up to your responsibilities. The future holds much for you a11d if you only follow the lessons you have been taught, success is sure to be yours. Please be men and women that stand for the better things of life, fight evil wher- ever it does show its face, think for yourself and be not puppets in the hands of those who would use you only for their own gainf' All cannot be leaders, but you can be honest, upright citizens. The reason for the present conditions is the fact that proper training has not been given to all people. It is with a heavy heart that I bid you goodbye, but never will I forget your co- operation with me, and even though a few of you were antagonistic to our methods of conducting a school, and were supercritical of our student control, I will always believe it was because you would not inform yourselves on this subject. If we have disagreed-all is forgotten and forgiven. May your future life be happy, prosperous, and filled with an unbounding faith in this world and the one to come. Such being the case, you will succeed. Goodbye and good luck. Geo. O. Main, Principal of W. T. H.
