This is true in the school, as well as in the business worldg therefore, we, the staff, pre- sent this Academe as a recording of the student activities which have occurred dur- ing the past year. Of course, the Academe is more than a history book. Primarily, it is concerned with the graduating seniors. In the years to come, it will be to this book that the members of the 1942 class will turn, to recall some of the happiest days of their lives. However, the other grades have not been neglected. This year, the Academe has given egual consideration to all clubs and organizations. lt has not dwelt on senior activities alone, but has shown the life of the entire school. It has presented the story of any student from the seventh through the twelfth grades. The staff has taken no little space to pre- sent the members of the faculty to parents and other outside readers, and to explain the functions of Various school organizations. Several Academy groups are more than locally famous, and their officers and mem- bers have been given due recognition in the pages of the Academe. Every student reading through the year- book should learn some interesting new fact about the school. The club section should prove especially helpful to under-graduates looking for new clubs, for different school societies which develop special interests and talents. . Above all else, this yearbook was de- signed, photographed, and written to bring enjoyment to its readers. lt was planned to cover the many phases of Academy life, to be an imperishable record of the years that passed between the morning-we, the seventh graders, went to homeroom, until the night we, the seniors, received our diplomas. ln the final analysis, the Academe is a picture of life at Academy, and, indirectly, a picture of life in Erie. The year 1942 will go down as one of the most eventful periods in history, and this Academe will be a symbol of our changing times.

The Schools The American record of free education is the finest in the world. The last census showed that thirty millions of the nation's one hundred and thirty two million citizens are students, that of these, approximately twenty two million attend grade schools, seven mil- lion high schools, and one and a half million, college. Legislation enacted during the past few years will do much to raise these statistics still further. Only in the United States could such a record be established, and only in the United States will such a record be surpassed. What finer thing could be said of any nation, than that every year three hundred thousand of its young people have been able to com- plete the best education the world has to offer? Academy's share of the twenty two million came, almost without exception, from the nine schools pictured on this page. Because, with the passing of the years, memories of high school dim, and memories of grade school disappear, we, of the staff, believed it fitting to include these pictures, as a reminder to Academy students of days gone by, and as a small tribute to the American system. i I 1 hs- -,.1-,. -must - -, '
