DEDICATION HE FUTURE of this country is in our hands, the Youth of America. We inherit a nation of glorious heri- tage at a point in her history when the world is in chaos. Our responsi- bilities are grave, our opportunities unlimited. To us falls the task of achieving the Four Freedoms. The words of the Atlantic Charter must be the deeds of our generation. It is a large order, but with America's heroic past for inspiration, we will not fail. The builders of America were hardy and adventurous people of staunch hope and high courage. They came to their appointed tasks with basic ideas of freedom and equality. For three hundred years this spirit has prevailed in the hearts of Americans. The results of our way of life are open for the world to behold. We have become the greatest nation on earth. To preserve the peace we will have to profit by the mistakes of the past. We, too, shall make mistakes but because we are freethinking, free-spoken and self-governed, we can remedy our errors and forge ahead. just as once before in our history we could not endure a nation half slave and half free, so today we cannot live in a world half free and half slave. While the din of battle continues to sear the soul of mankind and the peace is yet to be won, proudly and with great faith we are prepared to meet our assignments not as so many obligations, but as glorious opportunities. Pray God we shall make the most of these. To the Youth of America into whose hands Destiny has thrust the torch of a golden opportunity this humble volume is proudly and confidently dedicated.

THE Pl-IILQSOPHY OF LIFE Y philosophy of life as well as of education may be embodied significantly in three words, duty, work and play. Every individual-man or woman, boy or girl-has a moral obli- gation to work in the performance of duty, duty to self, duty to his job, duty to his home, duty to his community, to his state, to his country, and to the Almighty, that is, to exercise and to develop his innate, in- herent qualities and potentialities of body and mind to the fullest extent of his capacity and ability to the end that he may become a highly- developed moral, mental and physical human entity. Necessarily, working intelligently, regularly and efficiently in the performance of the individual's various duties, acquires skill, econo- mizes time, and affords the individual opportunity for wholesome play and avocational pursuits, an essential phase of human development. Applied educationally, this philosophy requires a modern educa- tional plant or structure, adequately equipped, a staff of high-minded, collegiate and pedagogically trained, energetic and loyal instructors, and a curriculum embodying subject matter varying in content and in activities to satisfy the development of individuality, to embrace the cultural background of civilization, to emphasize the problems and relationships of present-day social, economic and civic conditions, and, finally, to insure the creation of a well-rounded, cultured, practical, high-minded citizen of our Commonwealth.
