left for future years to reveal to chill
dren what the parents love, anxieties
and hopes and ambitions for their
children mean to them.
Classmates, as our relations in the
school work here closes and we go
forth to take up other duties, let us
carry with us pleasant memories of
our school and our associates here.
We know not what the future holds
in store for us. Tonight, we are all
hopeful and perhaps each of US
dreams of sWeeter better days than
even now, but we realize that life is
not all sunshine and happiness. There
are crosses to be borne, blighting
storms may crush out our life hopes,
and heartaches and bitter tears may
be part of our burden, but ii we
lay firm and deep the foundations of
our character, love and human SYM

al cOurage-that courage which
braves opinion in the cause of right,
that courage which cOnfronts tyranny
to protect the weak-will help us to
bravely pass through the trials and
affiliations of life. Time will bring
changes and separations. Our paths
will lead in different directions but
wherever we are and whatever our
work may our lives be true, noble,
useful ones.
Let it then devolve upon us to
share our part of the burdens, help
ing to fill the years with a busy &C
tive life, ever faithful to our part Of
duty and adding our strength to help
make this better and happier world
if only when We reach the end of our
journey and lay our burdens down
Ito join the innumerable throng'
and pass to that home from whence
no traveller returneth" that the end
has come and our work is done. But
where ends the influences of noble
and useful life? Who can tell?
But, classmates, as the years pass
along amidst our busy life, let us Of
ten pause and in memory recall our
happy days and associations in the
good old l.. H. S.

Classmates and Friends:

Classmates and Friends:
AS part of the larger welcome
extended to you by the Leon High
School, in behalf of the Class of
1914, I heartily welcome you TO
share with us our graduation. We
welcome the faculty because we be-
lisve they have made US what we are.
We sincerely greet the friends of this
High School and above all our par
ents, since our school life is made
possible only through their sympath-
les and sacrifices. Our successes
are their successes. We are, perhaps,
at what might be called the parting
ways, undecided as to what we
should do next. What our High
School preparation has been is an
important factor in what we are At
ted to do. Perhaps the vocational
preparation appeals more to some
while others seek the purely cultural
course. A yet wiser choice is in see
ing In those studies elements OF
both. a good example Of this may be
