To Our Graduates on Graduation Day - The day when you step forth from the shielding arms of school life into the broader fields of endeavor - the day when you must take up the real problems of life and solve them for yourself. It is a day when it is wise for you to look for help and counsel from those who have already had experience in handling the problems now confronting you. Among the business and social associates of this community awaiting to welcome you into this new life you will find many friends. Some you already know, but in the new sphere you are entering they will appear in a different light. But of one this you can be sure - if you enter the new life here among local associations, these friends are more than willing to do everything possible to help you make a success of your new activities. We want you to stay here and become one of us. We want to share your triumph when success rewards you - your sorrows when fate may be less kind.
