OIA ORMIUAUL IT HAS BEEN TWELVE YEARS since we entered the halls of knowledge, and of those twelve, four have been spent in this building. The time now arrives when we must leave these sheltered walls for the conflicts of the outer world. This world, ravaged by war and oppression, presents a problem which must be faced and surmounted. For many years we have been nurtured in the halls of knowledge, and in that time we have moulded the fun- damentals of our character, we have learned the principles that govern human behavior; we have studied human nature. We are young, we are fresh in ideas and ideals and are determined to put into practice the best that we have. Let us not lose the wisdom absorbed here in the whirlpool of a rapidly changing world. So many young people have had their hopes crushed, their ideals shat- tered; but let us look at what is happening at present, and from what we have learned, let us anticipate the future. TOO MANY NATIONS have crumbled. The flaws in building a unified world were too numerous. Will we never learn that experience is the best teacher? Can we not construct something durable of which we can be proud? Let us not be crushed by the weight of mistakes, as nations have been before us. Let nothing impede the forward growth of civilization. There are and always will be new things to be discovered and invented. IT IS THE NATURE OF MAN to explore and discover. His inherent desire to want something better and finer than that which preceded, has caused him to delve into the unknown and return with the treasures of discovery. The average youth, who goes out into the world today, is apt to say that there is nothing new to be discovered. But there was nothing new to discover when Columbus found America. There was nothing new to discover for the Wright Brothers and Edison. The youth will cry, “That was yesterday’. He does not realize that the Todays will soon be the Yesterdays and the Tomorrows will be the Todays. He thinks only in terms of new lands to be found. Our attitude will be different. There are millions of things to uncover from their places of hiding. When the earth has finished thrashing itself about, it is for us youthful idealists to begin our work. The world is ours, and we shall take it. Then with strong and well-honed tools we shall work hard and earnestly to over- come the difficulties and hardships. We shall work with sincerity and dedicate our lives to eternal peace. EAU RWEIGES HIGH Ss © HH @O,@g

The Signs of The Zodiac-----Continued SEPTEMBER 23 LIBRA aay VENUS THE BALANCE Natives of this period are usually charming, amiable and persuasive, and well-liked because of their sociable nature and friendly disposition. You Libra-born are de- sirous of harmony, poise and you spurn the ugly, dis- proportioned and unbalanced. You prefer mental rather than physical work. You are so conscious of social en- joyment that you would rather spend your time at a dining table or a dance floor than turning out a good job. Anything that is artistic appeals to you. Your steady keel tantalizes the men and women who love you. OCTOBER 23 Libra-born harmonize best with those born under Aquarius (January 21 to February 19) and Gemini (May 21 to June 21.) OCTOBER 24 SCORPIO Cape MARS THE SCORPION Scorpio tends to strengthen the will and make you positive, determined and firm so that you will resist out- side influence and prefer to go your own way. You are a combination of a saint and sinner. Mars, your ruler, gives his children courage, power, aggressiveness, but when these children fail to temper their strong qualities with softer virtues they become arrogant, intolerant, and conceited. Your mind is usually sharp, cool and collected. Scorpions are inclined to follies of the heart and are extravagant in their love.

You sons and daughters of Capricorn are ambitious, industrious, per- sistent, and tenacious. You have a large capacity for hard and continuous work as you have great power of endurance and self-discipline. You rarely need to learn how to save money for this is instinctive of a Capri- corn.

You are easy-going and adaptable and receptive of impressions, and your success or failure will be de- pendent upon persons wit h whom you come in contact. You are sympathetic, humane, and charitable, and will be helpful to those who are in trouble. You have an uncanny intuition that sees through the obvious aspects of a situation to the underlying causes. Your love of nature is so extremely idealistic that you may despair of ever finding anyone merely human who is capable of measuring up to your requirements. Piscians harmonize best with those born under Cancer (June 22 to July 22) and Scorpio (October 24 to No- vember 22). INGER RE SR: Sik oY
