jo the CQCLAA ot 1942 Leadership at best is a hazardous oc- cupation but one which pays big divi- dends, if properly managed. As ever, democracy is in need of leadership, in fact, the fundamental essential of demo- cratic society is intelligent leadership among those who are entrusted with the sovereignty. If we fail to maintain this essential our system of government will be seriously handicapped. Your educa- tion to this point certainly should have impressed you with this principle of de- mocracy and aroused within you a sin- cere desire to accept your responsibility in this type of living which has meant so much to our forebears and which has endowed you with such marvelous ad- vantages. Class of l942, don't let the problems of our American Democracy dismay you but always remember that problems are the growing pains of civilization, point- ing the way to progress and offering op- portunities for personal achievement. In your struggle for personal achieve- ment in this complex and confused so- ciety into which you must go, may l caution you that true democracy admits of no privilege save one-the PRIVILEGE OF SERVING. Your success and happiness can be practically assured if you will accept these two objectives of living, namely, leadership coupled with the principles of service to your fellowmen. Class of l942, accept my congratula- tions on your achievements and my best wishes for your continued success. C-. A. MCCORMICK For four years there has existed the dream of the i942 Yearbook. Each year the members of the class have looked forward to becoming Seniors and there- by having the privilege of sponsoring their Shingas. We have watched its progress through the months with interest, and now we have in reality that which has existed in imagination for so long. The book has been well planned, and a vast amount of information with re- spect to the class history of each high school year has been made available. Due to the increasing interest in the char- acter of the Yearbook, the service rend- ered by the Staff has continued to in- crease in importance. Their only reward has been the gratitude of the faculty and the student body, together with the satisfaction of a project well done. We look with pride upon this Shingas-the vision of the members of the Senior Class under the leadership of Mr. Paterick and the members of the Staff. To the excel- lent service rendered by them and to the high quality of their work we give recog- nition, and we hope that in the years to come members of the Staff may reach the same high standard of judgment and efficiency so that their service may be equally valuable. We are happy to convey greetings to the members of this class, for by every day contact with them and with their problems they have been a constant source of challenge and inspiration. MARY l. MCKINLEY
