DEDICATION TO DEMOCRACY AND FREEDOM World affairs today may be compared to a huge Chee.: game with the forces of democracy and individual freedom opposing those that restrict human right.: and liberty. During our last year at Central we seniors have had ample opportunity to observe the unlawful seizure of small .squares on the chessboard of Europe We have noted the methorff that foreign strategists use to get these squares, Propaganda, intimidation, racial hatred, direct force, all these things have been used to undermine the cause of personal liberty If our basic principles of Amer- icanism are to withstand such methods of attack, direct and indirect, it must be because we, graduating high school students today, citizens tomorrow, have the ability to build a Sound defense against them Here at school we have laid the foundation of our de- fense against all isrrr's and other undermining factors Citizenship-governrnentv-we have been taught these nec- essary fundamentals in the life of our nation Reading, lec- tures, and study of world affa1rs have made tolerance and broadmindedness essential parts of our school society. We have been shown the difference between education and propaganda and have learned to sift the conflicting currents and resolve them into approximate truth, casting out that which is unsound, These things we shall take with un all we Step over the threshold of prfrctirfal affair: We may not all be knight.: and brxliopi, queerrs and lzinaxw, in this crucial garne, probalwly most of u.: will l'-e pawns but pawns are the determining vifrent.-z tn the final rr,r rnalysis of methods of strategy lf talies the united effort of all the pieces on lile':: cherzkwirrd to wir. bfrttlep Knowing that the world her. nfeft of t1l'f1'C 'lllV.+'rVllV'fl, lib- f'FTY'lOVlVtCt 'youth ',f.' ith thi 'f'l','lll'1Vfl to thinly and the courage to riphcld their convictzrrri - if the claw.: of l939, dedicate orirzselvex to tht' rrivrrfr-'tier' f f'tm+-ricriri lft,1 f iltl'lf'l and den.-rr nrt A.

f PRINCIPAL GREETS '39 GRADUATES In the Centralian for April 14, 1939, there is an editorial, Think As Future Citizens Should. It reminds Central's students that they are living in a history-making era, and that it is up to the com- ing generation to face this kind of a world lwhich it calls a world of 'turmoil'l and to be able to fore- see the effect of their decisions and make a world of democracies and peace. In closing, the editorial says, What you, the on-coming generation, feel and think about these problems may determine the outcome. Are you preparing yourself to face a world of this kind or do you give this little atten- tion? The world- is depending upon you to make these decisions fairly and squarely. Are you going to let her down? This class, which is the largest graduating class in the history oi the school to date, will not let the world down. Central's thanks go to you and your adviser, Miss Gladys Weinsheimer, for your leadership and serv- ice while in school. Our Alumni will be -proud of you. You have our good wishes for your success and happiness. CARL SHRODE, Principal.
