I reJJJ1Jf441aa4g.a swear umoov us- eu -iv or 1:-use u snub OE ORD The God who ga-ve us life gave urs liberty at the same time. THOMAS JEFFERsoN The words, Nlife, liberty and tl1e pursuit of happiness , first, used in our Declaration of Independence, are the very foundation of American Ideals. As time passes they acquire a broader meaning, and we appreciate more fully the sane thinking and sound judgment of the leaders who planned them for their day and for as long as America shall endure. Behind these principles are the courage, sacrifice and labor of men from xvv3Sl1iI1gtOH, Franklin and Jefferson, down to the humblest soldier who gave his life for liberty. Today we must all stand prepared to make our sacrifice, however insignificant it may seem, in America's cause. TI-IE CONIPASS OF 191-3 presents a review of the efforts of young Ameri- cans, who, appreciative of their exhalted privilege of Americanisni. are directing every energy to help preserve and maintain American Ideals. 4
