pie didn’t “run” them they
fought for their rights. We had
great leaders and got good re
sults. Make the right decisions.
Degrees do not count when we
go to college unless we have
learned the value of life. Strive
to be patient, never kill the
things you love. Do things, be
something, be honest and to
theirself be true. In this day of
the push button life, everything
goes. Remember first to be pro
ficient, not just efficient. Stand
firm, avoid the bad and fight
for the right. Make your life
count.
Mrs. Dixon introduced John
Knight who spoke on conserva

ful the first year or so, he put
forth special effort to learn all
he could about Forestry. His
demonstration at the National
Congress really won for him
first place. He gave the high
lights of his first trip to Chi

many people from many sec

all pleasant memories. He said
big business firms in the city
went all the way out to make

great time.
