'lf L. KELLOGG A. GLANDER E. ELDRICK D. SHEPHARD President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Sergeant-at-arms OUR CLASS OFFICERS LOOKING FORWARD Perhaps never in the history of Tomah High School has a senior class been graduated into a more unpredictable world. Currents of change are upsetting established traditions. All the world, brought closer in understanding by the development of communication, seethes with the movements of ideas and loyalties, with the changes of ideals and standards. But, with all its laclc of security, the period offers much to young people who are eager and strong. The problems of the economic and social world, not yet even half-solved, are the tasks of youth. In the tangled web of the nation's activities young people can test their ideals of human progress. Here is opporunity for service. No ability, no matter how humble or how undeveloped, need go unused. Youth must realize that opportunities for patriotic service come to the teacher, lawyer, government official, preacher, and editor. Because no political stability in Europe is lilcely in this generation, there is a greater challenge to our own citizenry. There is greater need for understanding the problems of our own nation. Not half-truths gleaned from hasty reading of propaganda sheets, but careful digestion of facts and well-founded opinions must direct the patriotic citizen. , Greater than for some graduating classes is the hope for the future. Factors in na- tional life which prophecy an enlightened, humane society are readily found. The expansion of schools with the growing interest in adult education, independent agencies of enlighten- ment such as the Civic Education Service, the Science Service, and the National Home Library Foundation, the consumers, co-operative movement, the sense of civic responsibility in newsmen of press and radiog the concern for the agedg the progress of public health and medical scienceg the sentiment toward the conservation of human and natural resources, be- ginning of planning on a national scale--all point to a better time in national life. .l.,l.
