Miss Sturgis brought out the need
of everyone having an ideal towards
which they are striving. She de-
clared that the main part of living
is to have a future in life, and that
no one has proven him or herself
successful where the ideal for some
thing better was lacking.
She told of the parting of the
ways, how each member of the class
although travelling the same road for
the past four years, has at last
come to the parting place and how
each will in all probability take a
different route. However, Miss
Sturgis declared that no matter how
far apart the paths of the various
students may take them, they will
always look backward to the four
years of pleasant friendship spent
within the doors of the high school.
In presenting the diplomas to the
graduates, A. Clayton Clark, the
president of the Board of Education
congratulated the students on their
success in graduating from the high
school and wished them C

a higher education as one of the
greatest assets that men or women
can have.
