SALUTATORY Professor Dean. Superintendent Stackpole, Principal Couture, Members of the Board of Education. Members of the Faculty, Parents. Friends and Schoolmates: The great English dramatist, William Shakespeare, has said All’s well that ends well,” but in my case I think that phrase should be amended to read, All's well that begins well.” For, you see, in my position as salutatorian, there rests upon my shoulders, the important task of opening the evening's program, of giving the keynote of the pro- gram festivities, of impressing you favorably and lending you the belief that this the most brilliant class that has ever graduated, and of putting you in an amiable and receptive humor. As spokesman for this class, I voice its earnest sentiment when I say that we are rich indeed to have so goodly a number of those who have watched our progress, re- gretted our failures, kept on having faith in us when we struggled to our feet again, and who are here today to rejoice that we have finally made the grade. We are sure it gives you satisfaction, as it does us, that we have finished what we started, and have earned certificates which attest to that fact and which entitle us to go forward to the commencement of larger things. We welcome you here today, and we hope you will feel repaid for coming, if no more than by the knowledge that we. the Class of 1947, feel highly honored by your interest and presence. We shall go forward always knowing that you are our friends; that you will watch what we are doing, and how well we are doing it, and be ready to rejoice with us when the boys and girls of this dear old school reflect glory upon it by the worthy part we are able to take in the world's work. We want you to remember that whatever we undertake will be better done and more conscientiously and intelligently performed because you have been and are our friends. You have come here tonight to witness the climax of our school career. It is true that most of us are looking to higher education and in fact, we hope never to stop learning, whether in school or out. It is indeed an occasion for which we are thankful, and for which we cannot express our deep appreciation and gratitude. To see your kind and friendly faces truly proves to us that our labor and work have their re- ward not only in grades but in the admira- tion and respect of our parents, neighbors and schoolmates. We greet you gladly. We are indeed honored by your presence. We hope you will have found it good to be here. And may all future classes graduating from this school be as favored as we have been with such good friends. Theresa Sansoucy.
