You, who will be prepared for the future by preserving your language, identity, and culture, will also protect and develop your consciousness of being beneficial to the society and state you live in because; you will be the great thinkers, artists, scientists, and leaders of tomorrow. For this reason, we are compelled to seriously realize that nothing done for you is an empty and futile effort. You children, who have received a good education, are prepared for the future with the necessary equipment, whose world of thought and emotion are clear, and whose conscience is developed, are the guarantee of all humanity.
