GRADUATION
Today nine bright boys and girls will graduate from
Seward High School and will buckle on their armor for
the first sanguinary battle of life. It is the hour when
fond dreams come true, the distant horizon is shaded
in rose tints and the great adventure of life beckons with
alluring promise.
In "this first graduation these young warriors, Thos.
Neville, Ruth Prosser, Vivian Nilson, Norman Nilson,
Agnes Anderson, Barton Stanton, Bennie Benson, Eva
Olaoswine and Nick Hiedel, are now called upon to grasp
the torch and carry it onward; a weapon stronger than
gun or sword, a weapon which rolls back the sombre cur
tain of ignorance and opens the portals to a field of pro
mise as fascinating as it is inspiring in hope and oppor
tunity. Their diplomas!
And who is there who would grudge them their
dreams and who does not share the thrill which is theirs
by right of youth?
In these bright youths reposes the future of Alaska
in that they are prepared to carry on where others must
lay down the task and step off the stage.
But graduation is only the first milestone. There is
yet a long and difficult trail, fraught with many confus
ing detours and pitfalls. It depends upon how well the
mind has grasped and digested the fundamentals of life
in its cosmic sense as to what the ultimate goal will be.
We have confidence that these splendid young “grads”
now ready for the battlefield, will cany the standard
high and keep it uncontaminated by the assaults of out
rageous fortune, and like those wfio have gone before
leaving a brilliant light of human achievement, pass the
heritage on to those who will follow.
