DEDICJITIUN ik We, the Class of '43, Dealicate our book to thee. This year we are dedicating our yearbook, The Chevron , to the former teachers and students of Albion High School now in the Armed Services of the United States. We want to show them our appreciation for the job they are now doing. They are fighting on land, in the air, and on the sea. They are fighting because they believe in Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just. These former teachers and students are willing to give their lives, if necessary, so that we at home shall be free from want and fear, and free to carry on our everyday life as free people in a democracy. These former teachers were more than just teachers. They were our friends. They have worked with us, and they have played with us. Now they are fighting side by side with some of their former pupils. We, too, believe in Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just , and we at home shall do our part to help these former teachers and students. We shall do our part to bring them home safely, so that very soon we shall all be working and playing together again. To them we dedicate- our Chevron,

FUREWURD 'ik ln every part of the world America's fighting men are in the front lines of combat. They have come from every city street and country lane throughout our fair land in answer to their nation's call. Our brothers, fathers, friends, and relatives-all have heard and answered that call with the cry, Aye, conquer we must, for our cause it is just! Our nation has declared her belief in the four cardinal freedoms as defined by our President: Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. For these freedoms our workers on the home front and our fighting men on the battle front cry, Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just! Our Chevron,', exemplifying Americais freedom of speech, is a record of our activities and friends. It is also a symbol of our American ideals and way of living. To protect and keep these things which we prize most dearly for ourselves and our posterity, we, the Seniors of today, will go out and accept the challenge with an undaunted cry, Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just!
