Roel!RT Bu1t~s Dw.r girls of 1940: I send this personal message to you as you leave us to go into the world to seek your fortunes. We have over two thousand graduates and they are scattered all over the world. I wish I could tell you all about them because you will meet many of them some day. They are your "big sisters" and you should know them. At our annual Banquet in June of each year we have three special celebrations, for at that time the girls come back to tell us what has been happening to them. The five,year girls have a great deal to tell because many of them have married and their families have begun to grow. Others have been deciding upon their life work and getting settled mto a pro­ fession or business. The ten-year girls have grown more mature, and although many new things have happened, still they are now building upon what has gone before and "making a name for themselves" and for their Alma Mater. We have begun to celebrate the return of our twenty-five­ year-old graduates. We have been fortunate in gathering together at the Alumnae Banquet time many of the girls who left us so many years ago. There is a thrill always in any new adventure; life is the biggest adventure of all. Our love and best wishes go with you. May you be happy and successful; remember that we are here waiting with the latchstring hanging down ready for you to come along and give it one good pull. Until we see you again, sincerely your friend, EotTH LESLEY WotPARD ) I )- - FACULTY EDITH LESLEYWOLFARD, Director GERTRUDE MALLOCH, Principal PRANCES PAY HARRIET H GREENE MARJ< V.
