is of greater value than anything
which books can teach. You have
taught us by your example, lessons in
appreciation, wisdom and considera
ton. May the world, through your
pupils, reap the benefit of your in
proud of US as we have been of you.
AS I bid your farewell in behalf of
my class I thank you for your part
in developing our deeper under
standing and our higher ideals.
Parents and Friends:
To our parents who have made ev-
cry sacrifice for US, we wish to ex-
press our appreciation. We realize
that we can never fully repay the debt
of gratitude which we owe to you,
but we hope that the education which
we have gained through your help,
may make us mere useful than we
should have otherwise been.
We feel grateful also to the friends
who have from time to time shown
an interest in our work and have thus
encouraged US. We know that you
will welcome us as we enter into the
moral responsibilities.
Classmates:
AS we leave school today there are
two feelings uppermost in our hearts.
We are joyful because we are taking
another step into the big world, with
Inc 1CSSOHS 16dII6u dL lll6 4NOLW1CIi
Free Academy as a foundation for
whatever attainments we may gain
hereafter in life. But over against
this feeling of joy is one regret, We
are sad to leave the scene of so many
pleasant happenings, where we have
played and worked together and have
thus come not only to know but also
to appreciate and love each other,
1t is hard to part but we may still
keep up the pleasant memories of the
past.
AS I bid you farewell wish you the
best that life has to order and may the
world be better for our living in it be-
cause we practice cur motto: Ever
to Excel; Ever to Be Noble"
