Their diplomas represent 12 years of training, and the group is an average class to this point. The school district has done its best for them. How well its efforts will be repaid in use ful lives and good citizenships will be better known in five, ten or twenty years from now. Some of these young people have worked hard for their attainments. Some have skidded through easi ly. Some, perhaps, are dull, and think they are smart. Some are smart and have enough common sense to know that they need much more. We hope that none of them think they have had sufficient training in books, courses of study, kindly advice of teachers and elders, direction in analyzing the true from the false, and adherence to the virtues of honesty, integ- rity, high ambitions, and spiritual welfare. All these things and more are only a basis of life, not some thing to be set aside as parts of school days, and thought of lightly. This class has had its days of care, training, and direction, mobilized much as an army. Thousands of such young people will soon be mustered out. They will then be on their own. There will be no general or captain, or corporal to direct their activities. They must fight it out alone if they succeed in the coming battle of life. The high school course has instructed them in the privilege of individualism, of the rights of freemen and their responsibilities. They now have their day, and that day is one of the most important of all ages. Only in this America is such training given young people, and only in America are such opportunities for the use of that training.
