FOREWORD We of this modern generation envy the people of the Gay Ninety” days, days when precious pictures, each telling a different story, were stowed away in the family albums, and later brought out and dusted off, to illuminate the owner’s memories. Consequently we have chosen as our theme the old-fashioned album, that we, too, may bring out this yearbook from among our school day collections, and refresh our minds with these glorious memories. As wc sit next to Mary in study hall or Tom in English, we think we will never forget the day her chair fell through or the humorous talk he gave on women’s hats. But, memories arc elusive and the incidents and faces we think we will never forget, will gradually become dim and tarnished with age. That calamity shall not be ours, for here in these pictured pages are the means of recollection. What a joyful, tingling feeling will envelope us as we turn back the leaves of this album and £4 ] suddenly sec before our eyes the very expression on Mary’s face the day .. . What sincere laughter shall peal forth as we recall Tom’s unconscious wit and Johnny’s comical antics. Let no skeptic say that wc of today arc lacking in a love of sentiment, for under that oft heard pretentious remark, I’m too old for that,” there isn’t one of us who doesn’t experience a happy emotion when we receive a valentine or singing telegram. Yes, the so-called sophisticate of the 1940 period of ’Gone With The Wind,” Glenn Miller, wedge heels and the Lindy Hop, are all as openly sentimental as were their grandparents in the 1890 era of antimacassars, tintypes, stereoscopes and lambrequins. And so as we advance to that lavender and old lace” stage, and tenderly glance through this cherished book, you will hear us query, Do you remember the time ... ?” Will you ever forget that day in History . . . ?” Ah! these reminiscences are yet to be ours; ours to capture and relive; ours to laugh over and cry over; ours to be locked in our hearts as vivid, vital memories!
