HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT

vaguely because of your authority,
but heartily because having known
you intimately, we have found insight
and love. We will never forget you:
and we hope that you will often think
of us. OF course we expect to meet
many more times, and we feel that
you will always be the same.good
! friends.
Classmates: During our four years
of high school life, we have grown to
think a great deal of one another.
Tonight let us pledge ourselves ever
to be loyal to 1911; and as we sit here
together in one happy circle, may we
start out on our duties of life...with
cheerful hearts, ever keeping in mind
what Stevenson says:
San idler is watch that needs
both hands,
AS useless when it moves as when
it stands.''
Juniors: We thank you for the in
terest you have shown us. You have
proved yourselves very good helping
hands. We wish you the best of sue
oocc IN, vnnr xuorly
And to all of you here tonight
We want to tell you how glad we are
that we have reached our first goal.
We are ready for more. We have
thoroughly enjoyed our high school
course, and we realize that the way
to further achievement requires high
aim and ambition. Tomorrow we
shall be eX-Seniors, but surely you
will think just as much of us. AS we
go forth to meet whatever is in store
| for uS--no matter where we are OF
what work we take up-we ask..all OF
Sauk Centre to never forget the class
of 1911. Good bye.
