Buy New Cars Dr. Wells is the owner of a new Buick coupe. John Drymiller has a new Nash car. trust that our future endeavors and our future successes will be worthier of and more fitting thanks than our feeble gestures now. Dear parents and friends!^ we also thank you. It is impossible to tell what you have done for us. But we realize that you have sacrificed unsparingly, that we have done nothing to repay you as yet, but, if, in the future, our lives and our successes justify your faith in us, we will feel that our time in school has not been spent in vain. 'We have dwelt long enough on what the future might bring; let us refer to the present for just a short moment "We take regretful leave of our school and all the things associated with it, we say good-bye to our kind teachers, and bid farewell to you, our friends. We shall meet again as Alumni. We sincerely hope that these meetings be frequent. When we return in the years to Come, we hope that each member of the class of '26 will bring with him his due share of glory and fame to add to the reputation of McHenry Community high school." In having Dr. Franklin B. Snyder, of Northwestern University, as speaker of the evening, the high school gaduating class felt quite honored. As his address progressed, Dr. Snyder brought out four big points to the minas of the graduating class as well as to the assembled audience. But as the address was directed more to their benefit than the audience, it is more associated with the problems of their age. The four points were: "Fun, Friendship, Facts and Faith." Dr. JSnyder said in part: "Fuh is as essential to school life as anw one of the other greater fundamentals. Why? Because, without fun school life would be just a dreary, monotonous, grind day after day. Without fun, the student becomes uneasy, dislikes school, and in ganeral, becomes a rather melancholy sort of person. But if a good amount of fun, not an overdose, is permitted in school, one finds that the students do much better work and they are continually in a better state of mind, for it is well known that a happy person can accomplish double the amount of work or whatever it may be than an unhappy one. "Friendship is one of the vital accomplishments of school life, whether it be grade, high school or college; for in this period of time, students make friends that are friends all thru life, perhaps the best and the most beloved friends that they have. As is well known it is much harder to make lasting and enduring friendships in adult age than when in the molding age of a student's life. However, this does not mean that the greatest love of their life comes in this period, for this as a rule is not so. Gen erally students find that so-called greater love in the first few years after their graduation from school, when they marry and have a home of their own. Facts, presumably, is the most important point, at least in the financial way. For the more facts that one person has at his command the farther he can rise in the business world and the greater will his service to humanity be. Facts give a person predominates over the persons who have not these facts at that time; the man or woman who has a good memory can thereby retain many facts and is really gifted person. But to say the least, one may to some extent,-* cultivate the habit. "Fourh comes Faith, faith in humankind, faith in yourself, and faith in God. By all means have faith in your neighbor; if he falls, help him to arise again and to go forth to try again in whatsoever field it may be. Have faith in yourself or in other words have self - confidence. That one attribute in itself is a requisite to high accomplishmente, for without it one is what the world calls spineless or one without any backbone. A person who has no self-confidence will not rise very high. And lastly have faith in your God. Believe in Him, trust in Him, and see what a better and brighter world this place will be. My parting word to this graduating class is to strive ahead with those ideals whether you enter the fields of labor, continue school of stay at home." Supt. Duker, after speaking a word or two, presented the class with their hard-won diplomas. The students then filed off the stage and mingled | \ with their fellow students and their friends in a happy farewell to dear old Alma Mater.
