Foreword SoMETIMES it must seem to you young people that the voices of doom are rampant in the land today. Often through news- papers. magazines, and novels you are given a sorry picture of the state of the world and of people in general. Too many timid souls warn you to he careful and cautious in planning your future. There is far too much existing and not enough real living along dynamic lines. It may seem to you that this new age has not produced men that can measure up to those of other times. But this is not so. All you have to do is to think of the heights of courage and great- ness to which men have risen in the last two years, and the suffer- ings and triumphs of the persecuted minorities of the world. Time and time again modern man has proved that the human spirit, desiring good, is still dominant and can win over the forces of destruction. You are living in terrible, wonderful, soul-stirring times. on not only bear the brunt of the mistakes hut you also enjoy the fruits of the age. And you will make your own contributions— some good, some had—hut as you are inherently decent and fine there is no doubt in my mind that you will try to do all you can to further the attainment of a better world. Year after year Chagrin Falls turns out young men and women of purpose and integrity. This happens all over America, and as long as this is so there is no reason to he afraid or despair. Youth is the ray of hope that is ever shining upon the horizon of America. Words that 1 wish you well cannot adequately express the depth and sincerity of my desire for your success and happiness in the future. Miss Elsa Jane Carroll Senior Class Advisor
