The Watertown news. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1917-1919, 1918-06-14

whose progress naQ inspired nlul. Al
ter two years of experience, he finds
that wealth and fame cannot be found
in a pleasant path but these things
can only be attained by tOilsome labor.
In this story, we find that although
the youth had many opportunities to
perfect himself he failed to take adj
vantage of them and thus made a
great mistake.
Our own high school career has
given us many great opportunities be-
sides our splendid educational ad-
vantages. These will be of great aid to
us when we go forth into the business
world. In our debating societies, for
instance, fine opportunity is offered
to the boys; for while they are train
ing themselves for that greater part of
their life which shall be reached as
soon as their high school days are
ended and at the same time they are
furnishing enjoyment for themselves
The same is true of our glee clubs,
our orchestra, our athletic societies
and many other school activities We
are furnished an opportunity to better
ourselves before we go out to meet
the shadowy future and also, we are
getting real enjoyment out of our
work.
In this crisis, indeed, we need these
opportunities to perfect ourselves, the
out into the business world as exper-
fenced men and women who are able
to aid in all things for our well being.
We, the class of 1918, do indeed feel
highly hOnored in becoming members
of the Alumni association. For, while
we have severed all connections, ma
terially speaking, with our high school
life, still we have a feeling of great
joy and comfort because we know that,
being entered into the Watertown
Alumni association, the memory of our
high school days shall always remain
fresh in our minds.
