WRESTLING NEWS
(Following is the text of the vale­
dictory address given by Miss June
Furry at the graduation exercises
last week:)
Probably some of you know what
It is to stand before an audience and
with trembling knees, a wildly beat­
ing heart, and a shivering spine, at­
tempt to deliver a valedictory.
It is hard to express in appropriate
words our gratitude to our teachers
and also to the members of the board
of education. To the careful guard­
ianship and earnest efforts of the
former and to the careful planning
and supervision of the latter, we feel
that we owe all that we have attained
at the end of these four years.
In taking a review of the past four >
years I wonder if my classmates 1
would agree with m< as to what 1s I
the most Important lesson acquired I
by us. It seems to me that the most
important lesson learned by us is the
value and power of work.
Today we are the Senior Class of
the Central Point High School. To­
morrow we will have no place here,
but will have passed on to begin a
new phase of our life. JVe all have
dreams of the future, but to make
these dreams a reality unremitting
work is required. The conscious
efforts of our theachers to instil de­
finite principals of honesty and
preserverenee of untold value helping
us to over come the obstacles In our
paths of progress.
Many times there have
been
wrinkles or worried frowns on the
brows of our teachers over the an­
tics of this over-active, fun-loving
cluse of ours, but we hope the traces
of those wrinkles will not remain
long. We have traveled a goodly dis­
tance since the first day we entered
this high school and while we have

failed many times to do ths things as
well as we should have done them,
and while we have often been care­
less and thoughtless; yet thanks to
the patient zeal of our Instructors
we feel that a splendid foundation
has been laid for a superstructure of
broader learning and culture.
We appreciate the opportunities
and privileges which you have made
possible for us. We recognize the
self sacrifice and far-sightedness of
what you have planned for all re­
quired of us.
We have had very pleasant times
together and our only regret is that
our high school days are over and
that we have to each take our se­
parate ways. The recollections of
these days will be among the bright­
est spots In our memories.
