T0 THE SENIIDBS Dear Seniors: lt is difficult for parents and teachers to realize the changes wrought by time. It is unbelievable to most parents that the happy, carefree years of the youth of their loved ones have slipped into eternity. But such is now the fact. The priceless lessons taught you at home, in your church and in your school have transformed you from the youth of yesterday to the man or the woman of today. So, now, we look to you with conhdence and trust to assume your responsibilities in the world of tomorrow and so to live as to reflect all the virtues of your priceless training. Since the wealth of the nation does not consist of its natural resources but in the integrity of the family, we ask that you make every effort to preserve the sanctity of the homeg that you be alert to the influences of destruction that are gnawing at its founda- tions. Ideals, Godliness and respect must be brought hack into the homes by you if you are to fulfill your sacred obligations to your country. You must accept the home as the backbone, the life blood and the seed of American life. The preservation of the home must be your most solemn obligation. Your refusal to assume your duties in the dis- charge of this obligation spells disaster-America soon can become a Lost Nation. Faith in your God, your country and in yourself is the weapon of victory for the preservation of the American home. You have been richly endowed with this virtue. We ask that you preserve it in such full measure that it become the propelling force in your every act. Sincerely, THOMAS J. McDoNNELL, Principal. May 16, 19447. 20
