SIENICDIQS! I doubt if the graduates from the high schools of this country in any one year have faced more serious responsibilities than do you who graduate in 1938. I doubt if We have ever known times in which the American people had less confidence in the ultimacy of their institutions than they have today. I doubt if as a people We have ever 'known less definition of purpose or greater confusion of tongues. You are going to have the job of keeping America a democracy. Do not assume that this will be so simple a task. Some of the world's greatest democracies have recently stepped off the na.rrow path which we in America feel leads to the type of government which brings the greatest happiness and the greatest personal liberty to those who participate in it. Individuality of thought and freedom of speech are as sacred today as they were to- the framers of our g'overnment. Without posing as an alarmist I believe that their preservation will definitely be your task. I have full faith in you-I believe that you will meet this responsibility. You have been Well pre- pared for whatever is ahead of you, and I believe as the years come that no emergency, personal, social or political will find you lacking in clear thought or Wanting in competent judgment. DOUGLAS GOLD.

ANNUAL DEDICATION Mr. Gold, we have chosen.you as the receiver of this dedication because your personality coincides with what our Annual contains .. . . good scholars, good sports, and varied activities. Dedicating our book to you makes us proud. Right now its value is comparatively small. Several years hence it will be doubled by the memories it brings to life of our once high school days. Your name, Mr. Gold, will appear at the top of our list of memories. We shall see you as a great leader. Someone whom we, as students, liked to follow. Take this book as one containing the memories of four pleasant years of high school. It contains the thoughts, actions, and hopes of a class who deems you as the worthiest one to receive it. Take it-not as so much printed paper between two covers-but, as a living diary from your best friends--THE CLASS OF 1938. WILLIAM K.
