THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD 25 To a majority of the High School Seniors graduating in 1949, planning for their future will include the selection cf a vocation or the preparation of one already chosen. We are the doctors, clergymen, housewives, clerical workers, and teachers of tomorrow. Each one of these occupations is, to us, an opportunity to advance, if we take advantage of such an opportunity. Perhaps it would be well to define vision.” According to the dictionary, it may be termed the act of seeing. But to all cf us, it is the ability to see ahead and pre¬ pare ourselves for the future. Think of the great men in history! Men like Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt all had one thing in common—vision. They had the foresight to see ahead, to choose the right path, and to achieve success. We are the potential leaders cf the future. Have we some little part of that vision which will enable us to solve the problems of this atomic age, to envision the effects on world affairs of such alliances as the Atlantic Pact, the United Nations, and other agree ments? The fight of Democracy against Communism is one of the greatest and most difficult of the many tasks confronting our generation. These tasks can be solved only with vision. In closing, classmates, I wish to advise you to remember the fundamental thoughts you have attained in these brief years of school, maintain a strong grasp cn these prin¬ ciples of democracy, never forget you are American citizens, and above all, remember well your motto, In ourselves our future lies. May God be with you and guide you wherever that future may be. Jeanette Quagliaroli 49 CLASS SONG Tune: So Tired Farewell, we re leaving high school Farewell, to all our studies, We’ve had some fun and we’ve had our sorrows, too! Farewell, to our dear teachers, Farewell, dear classmates, too, Though we are through, We’ll ne’er forget these days. Carmella Sales ’49 CM Page
