Uwzj Many events are taking place in the realm of world politics today which from all indica- tions will not permit our American youth to plan and to live their lives as they would choose. lt appears that the present trends of world affairs cannot be ignored in planning their future. These years are critical years of confusion, indecision, and unrest. What can our American boys and girls expect of the fu- ture? Even though these are confusing times, we can take some satisfaction from those cour- ageous men and women who founded this na- tion. They, too, lived in most critical times. lt was most difficult for them to see clearly through conflicting ideas and philosophies and to select the main ideals toward which they wished to work. They realized that they must first establish the political, religious, and econ- omic principles upon which the new nation was to be established and then to organize those principles to secure their acceptance by the people. Our job today is very much like theirs. We'll have to examine very carefully the different idealogies that are demanding our time, our talent, and our money. We must remember that America's ideals fostered by our schools have kept us free and that next to spiritual values the most reliable resource we have is our young people. Education is pre- paring more people every year to contribute to the progress of our United States. The young people of our nation represent a vital part of the human assets of our country. We dare not underestimate their importance in civic and community affairs and in the growth of our land. Their careers are all-important. The real strength of our nation lies in the strength of character of its youth. Therefore, we must not neglect our schools in these times of rearmament and cold war. Furthermore, we must not overlook the values that are con- tributed to our educational program by the Church, radio, television, press, and lecture platform. We must consider money spent for education of our young people as an invest- ment in their careers and in the strength of our U. S. A. Now, we must have faith in the future. Remember that each generation has contrib- uted more than the one preceding. Let us stand firmly on the premise that democracy and peace are the issues of the day and that their fate in this generation of crisis will likely determine the course of civilization for years to come. Cherish the ideal that democracy is a way of life, our way of life. We must believe in it, live it, and practice it. Herein lies our future. RALPH D. BLUEBAUGH Washington 8- Jefferson College - A. B. University of Pittsburgh - M. E. Supervising Principal of Chartiers Township Schools MT
