So many good stories and poems have been turned in that the board has had a hard time making the decision. We hope that you approve of our selection and will enjoy the magazine. We give special thanks to the business- men of Camden and near-by towns who by their aid and co-operation have helped to make the publication of this year book possible. M C H S - EDITORIAL About now on the radio, in the news- papers, and in magazines, the chief topic of conversation is the presidential election. On the Republican side, it seems that every other man has his eye on the presi- dential chair. In the Democratic ranks there has developed a serious split- Truman Democrats against Wallace's Third Party. lt isn't the first time in our country's history that we've had a third party. Teddy Roosevelt back in 1912 and Senator Robert La Follette in 1924 made strong, but unsuccessful attempts. They were of no danger to the country though. Their aims, in general, were the same as the other major parties. Wallace's are not. His power has been increasing greatly in the last few years. Though not of enough importance to be elected this year, he will be continually growing stronger and may prove successful in 1952. One of the first to realize the danger of the Wallace menace was the late Presi- dent Roosevelt who, in 1944 chose Harry Truman for his running mate in place of Henry Wallace. It is important that the American people understand Wallace's ideas and realize how harmful they would prove to the American way of life. We should carefully look over the list of candidates and choose the one that we think is the most suited for the job. Don't vote for a man just because he is a Repub- lican or a Democrat. There have been great presidents on both sides. Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt were two of the greatest Republican presidents, while Wil- son and F. D. R. were great Democratic presidents. It's primarily the man not the party. Above all, use your right to vote. People of many countries would give their lives for the act that so many Americans ne- glect or abuse. The next few years will be the most im- portant in our history. They can be either the foundation for a lasting peace or the beginning of a number of wars that will eventually lead to our complete destruc- tion. It all depends on the voter and youth of America. The story can have a happy or a sad ending.
