PHILADELPHIA, 44

-3-

B. Nelson, Mrs. Ruth B. Young, Mrs. Carolyn A. Young, Miss Valerie V. White and Mr. Herman C. Scott your labors, hopes, and fewrs dreams have not been in vin. You have produced mens and women who have taken their cues on the stage of life. Look while they pass before your eyes, loyal teachers, clergymen outstanding in their fields, lovers of music and the arts, a physical director, nurses, doctors, a tennis star, a newspaper writer and radio announcer, firemen, policemen, good citizens, soldiers, many of whom gave their lives for their countries during the pass two wars, brave parents whose children and children's children are present here tonight.

"From acorns great oaks grow". Who can foretell the future? But with the
present teaching staff and the Parent Teachers Association, I know that it will find Joseph E. Hill School facing the rising sun of a new day begun, true to our Alma Mater, true to ourselves, true to our fellow men.
