THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD 27 GRADUATION NIGHT PROGRAM SALUTATORY. Members of the Board of Education, Teachers, Parents, and Friends:— It is an honor to be able to welcome you here tonight in behalf of the class of 1933. We appreciate the interest you have shown in all of our ac¬ tivities and we sincerely hope you may be pleased with these, our commence¬ ment exercises: THE SCHOOL AND THE FUTURE GENERATION Problems of all kinds have overwhelmed the country in the last three years; and though America seems to have started breathing nor¬ mally again, many more years will be consumed before these problems are solved. In the years to come America will depend upon the school boys and girls of today to help her. Will the school have prepared those boys and girls for their duties? No one can dispute the influence of the school on the types of citi¬ zens that are sent out into the country to comprise each succeeding genera¬ tion. Because of this indisputable fact it is necessary that as world condi¬ tions change schools, especially those representing the masses, should in¬ clude in their curricula methods for teaching their students how to fit into and deal with the new conditions. The machine has revolutionized modern life. These huge creations of the human mind have turned upon their very makers who are realizing that they cannot handle their own inventions. Evidently, life couldn’t help but change when such machines, turning out ten times as much and ten times as fast, came into being. Take for your example of modern efficiency an electric power house controlling the water which irrigates a large terri¬ tory. A great engine hums and the wall is decorated with dials. Not a soul is in sight. A telephone rings. From a nqar-by cottage comes a trim little woman. The Lava Bed Ranch wants water. She pushes a button, pulls a lever, waits a few moments until the telephone rings. The ranch has re¬ ceived its water; and she goes back to her housekeeping! But what about the men, those men who would formerly have been running different parts of just such a system ? Many of them are starving, no doubt, in the midst of plenty, and more than plenty, surplus! Why? Must only a few, motivated by greed and private profit, reap wealth while others suffer for lack of even the necessities of life? Must there always be that struggle for mere bread in a world where there are so many nobler things to be done? If those machines are so efficient now they are bound to become more and more efficient as time goes on. Then why not develop them to their highest perfection and put them to work? America has not reached its height of civilization. There are many things still to be accomplished.
