with wistful eyes back over the past
years Of our school life together, and
would fain prolong them, but we have
finished the prescribed course and
must enter the broader field of life,
where there are still greater problems
to solve and greater battles to win.
Here in this harbor we have been
safe from the storms, but if we wish
to show true manhood and woman
hood we must push out into the sea
of life and single handed cope with
it's changing scenes. None of us may
ever be great or famous, but we can
at least be true men and women, for
each one has his duty to perform in
the sphere he is destined to fill. Then
let each go forth determined to live a
life that will bring satisfaction to
himself and blessing to his fellow
men. Let each one prove that the
foundation laid during his school life
is broad enough to support a noble
character, one that shall stand as a
monument to the world and that shall
be the means of inspiring some one
else to nObler actions and truer life,
Then with faith in God. hope for the
at home. You have made us feel. by
your kind efforts, that second only to
our own home, the school room is the
best place on earth for us. You have
ever been watchful over us and have
guided and directed our mental devel-
Opment. By all honorable means YOU
have assisted us in forming manly
and womanly habits, which will cling
to us through life. Often in after years
we will look back over our school life
here and think of the many truths you
have taught us, and the example Of
untiring energy which you have been
to u.s. But, as actions speak louder
than words, let us grasp your. out
stretched hands and with your '.God-
speed,'' go out nto the world to act.
Fellow Students: You have met here
tonight to witness the departure Of
the class Of 1901. This is probably the
last time we shall all meet together.
AS class we must now bid you fare
WE'LL but we hesitate, we are reluct-
ant to hear the last goodbye and re-
ceive the last hand shake. The chain
Of friendship which binds us as stu
dents together has grown too strong
to be easily broken. Together we have
shared one another's joys and sorrows
we have been as brothers and sisters
in large family. We as the senior
members Of this family must now de-
part. But our. thoughts and interests
will still linger about our school room
and the many friends and schoolmates
whom we leave there. Let US say as
parting word of advice, be friendly,
keep your classes united, work with,
not against your instructors, and YOU
must at all times remember that YOU
are individually responsible for the
reputation of this school. Take your
stand upon the side of right do your
simple duty as you go along, and then
when you are through with school life
you can truthfully say that you have
accomplished something. ..a
The vacancy which we leave here
will be quickly and we'll filled by the
juniors, and next year your work will
go on the same as ever, and we hope
and pray that heavens richest bless
ings may crown your efforts here.
Fellow Classmates: Today we are
to realize as never before the signifi-
canoe of our relation to each other, for
future and charity toward all the
world, let us say farewell"
