we ,in 101710 ' ,Malallmen ,646 . . . Glorious America . . . the home of the brave and the land of the free, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal . . . that they shall receive free, all the accumulated benefits of human rights and opportunities . . . and that among these inalienable rights are contained certain privileges which are the backbone of our country . . . freedom of religion . . . free- dom of speech . . . freedom of assembly and of the press. . . . It is with intense pride that the Senior Class of nineteen hundred and forty respect- fully dedicates this simple collection of fond memories and achievements, inspired by our own Democratic ideals, to the spirit of our government -- Americanism. . . . In this, our final gesture of fraternity at Chaminade, we have endeavored to imbibe all of the knowledge, character, and virility which has been instilled into us by mem- bers of the Society of Mary through four swift and important years . . . we shall never for- get these years for it was during them that we have built the foundation for our future lives as American citizens . . . good, honest men, faithful to the principles for which our forefathers fought and died . . . . . . It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain-that this nation under God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. . . . Thus spoke Lincoln, the humblest and greatest American who ever lived, in his im- mortal Gettysburg Address . . . and thus feel the Seniors of the class of forty. , . . It is our earnest thought and desire upon departing from these portals of Chaminade that we are not merely dedicating a book, but that we are dedicating Ourselves-build- ed into the best and finest citizens we can make!
