48-4 9 The school year of 1948-49 is now history. For some of us it was the first year at Concordia, for others, the last. For all of us it was another year of preparation for our work in the Lord's Kingdom. As we walked through the paths of the 1948-49 school year, many of its activities have become unforgettable events. The memories each one of us will hold of this year probably vary in a great degree. This book is an attempt to assemble a portion of the history of this year. But it is impossible for this book, or any book of its kind, to touch many of the memories which are deep in the hearts of all of us. It can only present the year objectively, the rest we must leave to you. Let us for a moment look back at some of the progress made during the school year of 1948-49. It marked the first year of government under the Student Association. Through the efforts of its leaders and the co-operation of the entire student body, this new form of govern- ment successfully completed its infant year. This heritage of student government may be handed down with pride to future student bodies of Concordia. The various organizations of Concordia also made great strides forward which could be seen in the many programs presented to the faculty, students, and friends. Some of the highlights of these activities will be found in the later pages of this book. The year brought the completion of two new buildings on our campus. In May we joyfully dedicated the new girl's dormitory and library for service in the Lord's Kingdom. But the greatest accomplishment of the 1948-49 school year was the same as any other year. Another group of graduates left Concordia to serve their Lord as Christian Day School teachers. We thank God for the many blessings sent us during 1948-49, and pray that our school may send many more laborers into the harvest.
