To Students of Owego Free Academy: You are fortunate in living in a modern age because 'fRoacls',, the theme of your yearbook, are a modern invention-whether it be high- ways across the land or the sea, or lanes through the air. There are so many of these highways that they constitute a complicated system. For this reason, your education now and your training in the future are most important in guiding you along the right paths, whether it be a side road or the main highway. In life you will have certain stepping-stones, such as graduation. In reality, if you think care- fully, you always will be challenged to study the allegorical maps! With all good wishes for your trips through life, I am Yours very sincerely, VV. G. MORGAN il? Our Princfpal . . . Sheldon Gufle Our Superfnfenclenf . . . W G.
