SALUTATORY By Alfred Mwrli To the member of the Stole Board of Control, Superintendent, Teaeber . Clacimate and friends: The Class of '32 welcome you most cordially to these exercises. We appreciate deeply the interest you have shown in coming here to share with us this proud and happy hour. For many years we have looked forward eagerly to the time when we should appear upon this platform as graduates. That time has come at Inst, and while wc are glad that we have successfully completed this part of our education, our hearts arc heavy ut the thought of leaving these surroundings and friends. We arc the ixty-sccond class to graduate from thus school. A wc look back, it seems but a few years ago that we enrolled in the kindergarten. a restless, active group of boy and girls. Ench year there have been changes. Now and thon some of our classmate fell back into other classes or dropped from our school life entirely. The new pupils coming here from other schools were the links that repaired the broken chains. Our life here ha- been busy and nt all times very happy. Wc shall carry away with us ninny pleasant memories of the good times we have had together on the athletic field, in classes and on the campus. We are fortunate in being members of a school that is able to give its big family so many good things in life and education. A few months ago, at a class meeting, we chose the sweet pea for our class flower, as the sweet pea stands for ambition. Orchid and green are our doss colors. Orchid symbolizes power and nobility of purpose, while green stands for loyalty. The orchid urges us to seek and cling to the noblest things in life, while the green reminds us to be loyal to our Ideals. It also reminds us to be loyal to our school and it teachings. ••PICK YOUR F’EAK AND CLIMB IT. is our clnss motto. All through our school life we have been climbing upward toward this longed for gonl. The climbing so far has not been difficult. but we know that the rocks ahead are rugged and steep. At times we may feel discouraged, but we shall not give up. By doing our best day by day, patiently and with perseverance, we shall surely succeed in life as we have succeeded in school. Our great poet, Ixmg-fellow, hud the same thought when he said: We have not wing , we can not soar. But we have feet to scale nnd climb By slow decree . Some of the class have chosen Gallnudct College as the high peak of their desires, while the rest will be content to climb the smaller hills of ordinary life. The view may not be so dazzling but the un will shine just as brightly on the hill tops as it docs on the highest peak. In behalf of my classmates, let me tell you again how glad we are to have so many of our friend here to-night. The Class of 32 extend a hearty uelcomc to you all.
