FOREWORD As the world around us progresses, we, too, want to keep pace. The 1940 Bervalon Staff of the Berlin-Brothersvalley High School presents the record of an important event in the history of our state and nation: the construction of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Since this Dream Highway, which represents the latest development in road building, is located close to us, we wish to commemorate this book to the ideals of progress for which that road has been con- structed. We sincerely hope that each student has advanced in knowledge in proportion to the progress made in road building. May your school life be as valuable to each of you as the Pennsylvania Turnpike is to the transportation system of our nation.
