A. has been, under the leadership of Mrs. Wells, very helpful to us. Through the cooperation of this organization with that of The Board of Education, the school has now in its possession a movie camera projector, which has been already enjoyed by members of the student body. In addition to this aid the P. T. A. has brought together the parents and teachers of the community ; it provided funds for the Christmas Operetta: and, as in previous years, sponsored the Athletic Association Banquet.

To the members of the Board of Education we express our thanks and appreciation for their efforts in bringing centralization to our community; for their sponsoring the purchase of a movie camera projector which has been enjoyed by all the school children; and, last but not least in importance, for their co-operation in lending the school buses to student and town passengers for the basketball out-of-town trips. Members are Henry Fox, President; Charles Joyce, Clerk: Joe Manley, Charles Holland, Sydney Wheat and Ada Brown, Treasurer. The Student Council which is the student governing body of the Clifton Springs Central School, elected the following officers for the year of 1941-42: President, Paul O’Connell; Treasurer, Lillian Landuyt; Secretary, Richard Lindner. The Student Council was responsible for many school activities. It sponsored the class assemblies, handled the money which was made by the Athletic Association, voted on all class activities and kept law and order among the students by the means of the monitor system. In this past school year, the Student Council has done a very excellent job and we hope that in future years its representatives will continue to uphold high ideals. First Row: R. Lindner, P. O’Connell, L. Landuyt. Second Row: L. Kutz, M. Tears. E. Grimsley, C. Cooley, E. Weld, E. Conley.

ooooo The Shapers of the Future We are the hope and light of the war-wearv world, The coming lawyers, statesmen, and diplomats of the future. We are the ones who will carry the Torch or fall. On us depends whether Justice will triumph over all. We are the law-makers and the peace-makers. We are the hope and mercy of the war-weary world. The future doctors, nurses, and supporters of the Red Cross. We will alleviate the pain and anguish of the sick and dying. And bring relief to those that have suffered loss. We are the health builders and founders of hospitals. We are the enlighteners and builders of the world. The future ministers, authors, and home-makers. We will carry religion and the lamp of Liberty to those who are sore-oppressed And make homes a place for religion, peace, and rest. We are the builders of Liberty and Democracy. We are the warriors of the world, The future soldiers and up-holders of Right. We will tramp through rain, sleet, and mud. and face terror and death, We will fight for our country to our last breath. We are the saviors of Democracy. We are the wage-earners and food-suppliers of the world. The professional men, clerical workers, and farmers of the future. We will work in dark, musty offices for long hours at little pay. And our blistered and calloused hands will toil in the field all day. We are the graduating class of ’42. —Jean Adams, ’42 Class Flower—Red rose. Class Colors—Blue and gold. Class Motto—Yicit qui se vieit. (Those who command themselves, command others.)
