Commencement over, the thoughts of 

 those who have had the members of the 

 class in their care for the past two and 

 three years, preparing them for the ever 

 present battle for existence that is to 

 come, perforce turn to the future of 

 their recent charges. 



To the graduates, commencement is a 

 time of joy and exultation. The minds 

 of the young people happily are engaged 

 only with the present. The days of lec- 

 tures, "labs," quizzes and "cramming" 

 are over and therefor they rejoice. 



To their instructors, graduation com- 

 ing as it does year after year, always 

 brings to mind the query — "What will 

 they accomplish? Will they 'make 

 good' ? •• 



As the years roll by, one by one, at 

 some time or other, the former recruits 

 and apprentices, now full fledged war- 

 riors, come and renew old acquaintance 



with tales of things accomplished and 

 ambitions yet to be fulfilled. It is then 

 that we realize that the seeds sown while 

 at school have taken root, and nourished 

 by the fundamentals obtained during 

 student days have become sturdy trees 

 well able to withstand and overcome any 

 and all obverse situations. 



With knowledge of this, we feel in 

 bidding adieu to the class of 'i6 that^ in 

 extending to you our best wishes for 

 future success and happiness, a large 

 majority of you will succeed into what- 

 ever field of endeavor your inclinations 

 or chances may lead you. 



Ever keep in mind your responsibili- 

 ties ; do not forget your Alma Mater ; 

 remember the Alumni Association so you 

 can do your part of the work for those 

 who come after you just as those who 

 came before you did their share for you. 



In short, "Make Good" ! 1916, Vale.
