Ojua. JimsA, These are the times that try men’s souls.” So Thomas Paine wrote some one hundred and fifty years ago. We all, young and old alike, are apt to think that our times are the hardest times that ever were. How often we hear people talk about the “good old days” as if there were no problems to solve and no crises to meet in those same days. Such, of course, is not the case, as any student of history can testify. Just as the Pilgrim Fathers of 1620 and the patriots of 1776 met and conquered the difficulties of their times, so must we, and so shall we. Let us go forward with courage and spirit, determined to prove that our souls, too, are equal to the trial. C. D. LOCKE Principal C. D. LOCKE, Principal — 7 —
