Thus I have started several articles intended for this space, hut I have thrown them all away. Wfhat I will say here I am taking from Ray Stannard Baker, a native of my home town in Xvisconsin, who says in his memoirs: Montaigne helped me in my earlier years to teach me the invaluahle lesson that I was all I had, all I ever would have, and that to he myself, honestly, was all that was required of me. 13 s m messa e o me uniors an eniors.

HIGI-I SCI-ICDOL PRINCIPAL t Mr. Marty must get tired of all tlve trouble we get ourselves into and yet l7e's always patient and willing to lvelp us fiml solutions for our problems. F. A. MARTY 15. A., and ill. fl., University of Iowa P, March 7, 1941 TO THE STUDENTS Ol: CLUQUET HICH SCHOOL: As this is heing written, it is now three months since war came to our country and our school. Although we have not seen frightened mothers and children or dead and wounded soldiers, we are rapidly hecoming more and more 1 I v aware of the fact that we are a pert of this warring world. Since the attack on ' Pearl Harbor many things have come to us: Congress passed the new draft law , for military service, 'lil'-H vears fregistration liebruary l-4, IS, and 16, conducted by the Vv'oinen's Friday Club., and l8f64 years for nonfmilitary dutv. Tires, cars, and sugar are now being rationed. A drive to sell Defense Savings Stamps and Bonds is under way. thirst sale in Cloquet AIIIIIIKYPSCIIIUI' High School, january 20, 1942, amounted to Sliillllg Mai-eh 3, SZOS.75,l Wair time has been adopted W- all clocks were turned ahead one hour on February 9. Wiiste paper is being collected. Temperature reports and weather forecasts are no longer being broadcast. The Red Cross is conducting a special drive for money in Clotiuet which to date has amounted to 32.38-1.74, A Red Cross workrooin at the Civic Center has been opened with branches in other parts of the city, First Aid classes are being conducted two nights a week in this huilding as well as special classes for students during school hours by Mr. Drew and Miss Norman. junior Red Cross Chapters have been organized in the -lunior High School by Misses Bisson, Kaner, and E. Sanford. Machine shop classes are conducted five nights a week in two shifts, 'i to 8, and 8 to ll. by Mr, john Bedahl, formerly of the Vslood Conversion Company. This program means that the realities of a total war are constantly moving in on us and that we are no longer spectators in this world conflict, Then comes the question, Vv'hat is my part as a patriotic student and citizen? As 1 interpret it, you have a twofold task: first, you must prepare yourself carefully so that when you are called into service you can fill the technical and nonftechnical roles as they develop: and second, you must equip yourself mentally. so that when the war is over, you will be capable of sharing in the building of that better world that is to come, that world of peace and good will toward men. Yours for an early victory, F. A. Marty I
