FIVE GRADUATE FROM DOUGLAS H. S.i
THEILE DEUVERS FINE ADDRESS
V L£% \ X ’
At ono of tlie most successful
conimenccnjtnt exercises ever held
In Douglas. the parting: words of
the 13215 graduating class of the
Douglas High School were heard by
a Well filled house in 4tie Congre
gational Church last evening.
■With the motto of the Class,
“launched, Hut Not Anchored” in
letters of the Class colors, sur
mounting a bank of evergreens, the
stage was impressively decorated for
the occasion.
After tho invocation by Dr. S.
Hall Young, Hangnar Kronquist as
aalutatorlan for his class delivered
an oration entitled ‘‘The Goblins
Will Get You.” Nafhing as the
goblins, tho three greatest hin
drance of success—fear, discourage
ment and worry, Hangnar related
the offects of these goblins and reit
crated the determination of his
classmates . to put them to route
whenever they should be encount
ered.
• The salutation was followed by
the class song sung by the graduates
and then Salma Aalto gave an ora
tion entitled “Education,” which
was very appropriate and well de
livered. A piano duct iby Misses
Mamie and Elizabeth Feusi was
thoroughly appreciated.
Martha Sey as valedictorian de
livered the parting words of her |
1 class to the parents and faculty.
Kipling's formula for success "If”
was used by her as the basis for one
of the finest valedictory orations
ever written. That “If” is the for
mula prescribed for success which
the members of the Class might well
use, said Miss Sey in her address.
Following the valedictory. Miss
Sickeis sang a solo accompanied by
piano and violin obligato, which
was very pleasing.
Territorial Secretary Karl Theile
delivered the commencement address!
to the graduates, admohishing them
to nurture the Alaska Spirit and
to make the most of their lives.
Mr. Theile'a Address.
“Ladies and Gentlemen; members'
of tho graduating class of the Doug
1‘ic Hltrh flolincl •
“It is a rare privilege to have a I
part in those interesting exercises'
tonight and I thank you tor it.
"This is a supreme moment in the j
lives of you young ladies and gen-'
tlemen who have finished the course
under Professor Mitchell’s direction
~-ot this splendid school of yours.
“The spirit of Douglas is more I
than locally famous.
“It extend* beyond the Gastiijeau
Channel.
"Tho records you have made in'
the literary and athletic contests in
the annual Rchool meets have spread
the fame of Douglas.
“Tho Territory boasts no bettor
school than this from which you
receive your diplomas, and in yean
to come you will look backward
•with pride and gratification of this
event.
“Whatever the future may have
In store for you, the fact that you
graduated from a school in this new
and wonderful domain will be treas
ured (pndly.
“you will live to see Alaska en
ter the Union.
“Mark the prediction!
“And you will ever bo proud that
you. are Alaskans.
“Graduation is a turning point in
life—the beginning actually of one’s
career.
“Some of you, perhaps, will go to
a university, a college or ,a normal
school; others will not.
“It is not given to the average
boy or girl tp go beyond high
. school. 1 ' *
“Wbethbr your education steps
here or la to be expanded, as I
hope, you have the foundation of '
“1^ is in every one of you to suc
ceed. ..
“Every American boy or girl to
day haa eucoess wltl}£fi Us reach.
“Opportunities are before you.
, “Grasp them.
“Go forth with confidence in your
selves. '
“Go forth with the Alaska Spirit.
: “It is the Indomitable spirit—the 1
- 1 unconquerable spirit—that does not
i
“Cherish and nurture tlic Alaska
Spirit and you cannot Tall.
“A rugged pioneer of an earlier
century, Davy Crockett, I believe,
enunciated an adage which lias been
htindod down in American history.
"A prudent, far-seeing man, lie
counselled his fellowmcn, ‘fie sure
you are right and then go ahead.’
“I command that adage to you,
but do not observe it too literally.
“Do not halt and wait in order to
be too sure.
“Over-caution is often costly.
"Time/is precious.
“Make tho most of it. —
“Make every day count.
“Treat life as a book of so many
pages.
“Utilize every page to profit.
“Let no day pass without some
useful act or deed oil your part.
"He not too serious or too play
ful.
"But bo earnest in everything
you do.
"A full measure of Joy and hap
piness is God’s portion to you.
"Shape your destiny by living
normally and healthfully.
“An English philosopher once
said: ‘A great deal of talent is lost
to the world for want of a little
courage. Every day sends to their
graves obscure men who have re-j
niained obscure only because theirj
timidity prevented them from mak
ing a first efTort.’
“Remember this. Have coinage.!
Do not be a ’Doubting Tliomas.’
Over assurance is a quality that will
not make for success, but timidity
—over caution—is an obstacle to
succees.
“Do not let your talents be lost
to tl\e world for the want of a little
courage.
“Difficulties encountered on the
way will only strengthen you for
the onward journey.
“The simple, homely advice of my
boyhood is equally potent in your
boyhood and girlhood—‘if at first
you don't succeed, try, try, again.'
“Above all, out in the big world,
or here in this blessed Northland,
be ever loyal to Alaska. Have
faith in Alaska. Spread the truth ]
about Alaska. And- do your bit
wherever your footsteps lead to be
of helpfulness to Alaska.
“Thus do I enjoin you in warmly
tendering you my congratulations
upon this memorable occasion and
in wishing you mightly well.”
Commission*!1 of Education L. D.
Henderson also gave a very good
talk to tho Class. He told of the
investment in dollars and cents
whicli each one represented to the
Territory and how many limes that
amount might bo returned at n
profit on the investment by the pro
per application of the education1
received. Mr. Henderson highly!
complimented the Class upon theirj
successful finish of the school Here;
and the highly quality of work ac-j
coinplished.
Clerk of the School Board L. W.
Kilbuisi presented the diplomas to
the graduates after which Superin
tendent Mitchell explained the offer
Of the Whitman Collage scholarship

bat. that it was necessary to await
further advices concerning same be
