Conneaut High School - Tattler Yearbook (Conneaut, OH)

FOREWORD y ;r 1 HIS year the nation joins in celebrating the [ I settlement of the Northwest Territory. Pag-eants, banquets, speeches and literary enterprises of various kinds all attempt to re-create for us the spirit of those hardy pioneers who, in order to carve a nation founded upon the staunch principles of democratic government, dared to leave their homes and labor across the Alleghenies to plunge into the vast wilderness that was then the Ohio country. May we, in our small way, applaud the noble efforts of those who made our great State of Ohio a reality. Let us, profiting by their everlasting determination, take up the torch and carry forward the rich inheritance which they bestowed upon us. Let us not squander that inheritance wrought by so much blood and suffering and patience and devotion to the sacred ideals of liberty. Let it not be said of us by future historians that they labored in vain.
