SALUTATORY By Phoebe Hughe Member of the Board of Control, Superin tendent. Teacher , Classmates, Friend , one and all: In behalf of the claw of 1936 I want to extend to you a hearty welcome to the sixty-fifth commencement exercise of the Wisconsin School for the Deaf. You have come from distant parts of the State to be with us tonight, and we appreciate your Interest in us. You are welcome guests in the truest sense of the word, since you have com« with a will to please us. By looking Into our happy fares you will rculixe that you have not come in vain. This class has not come up through the school a unit The first three members of our present class entered in the third grade when their parents learned of the advantages offered by this •rhool. Their classmates of those earlier years gradually dropped out; but five yean ago two little ladles came to recruit their ranks. As they entered high school, three young people from other school in the state came to complete this higher step in their education. And last of all, but nine short months ago. came a vivacious little mis? from Milwaukee, who. 1 nm nfraid. might have carried off some of our honors had »h»- rome earlier. Most of u come from the shores of l »ke Michigan but two of us call Northern Wisconsin our home. This winter, after lengthy consideration, we agreed upon our dais colors, gold and lavender; the gold signifies true worth, while the lavender reminds us of the sweetness and modesty of the (lower bearing the same name. Oar choice of a flower was the yellow rose which portrays nobility of thought. Our motto. Stand Fast expreoe the thought of my classmates that we shouldn’t let anything influence us after we have made a decision which ha been given earnest thought. May wc stand firmly by what our judgement tells us is right. We realize that this will not always be easy, as there will be many influences about us tending to shape our lives. We hope, however, that wc will never err by being too steadfast to our motto. What fun it would lx- to draw aside the curtain tonight to see what is in store for us! This being impossible, however, wc will work, fight on. and face the world bravely, striving to fulfill, to the best of our ability, the purpose God has willed for us. It U hard to believe that this is our last night in our Almn Mater and on this platform. How many and how varied have been our experience here! We used to think that thi night would be one of great rcjocing that little grievances, which then scented «o great, would be over. But now, as we look bnck, our heart seem full of the happy time , the golden links of friendship and the lavender of memory. Our love nnd welcome to you all. —15— N I N E T E E N THIRT Y - F1 V E
