A Message to the Class of '44 o This Breidlin is devoted to the war and that is fitting, for every one in America-and almost every one elsewhere-is affected by the war. It is first in our minds when we think of food, clothing, fuel, travel. It has taken from us our fathers, brothers, sisters, classmates and friends. It is constantly in our minds. The preparation formerly given to pupils of this school in times of peace is no longer sufficient. Many of your classmates are now giving their services to their country and many of you will soon be called on to make similar sacrifices of time and effort. This fact has greatly influenced your training here at school. In planning the curriculum, we have overlooked nothing that would fit our boys for active, armed service, our girls for the many and very important auxiliary duties open to them. We have been proud of the manner in which both groups have responded. But at the same time the principal and teachers of your high school cannot but think occasionally of the times after the war when we hope that you can settle down again in your own self-chosen manner of living, times somewhat like those of a few years ago. We still hope that we are preparing you for the regular course of a peace time life. So even though every one of us is willing to make every utmost effort for the war, we want to keep in our minds the fact that we expect to live normal lives later on. We hope that your class- room experience and the daily life of the school have given you a training that will enable you to become finer men and women, to lead happier and more useful lives. I suggest that you keep in your minds this life of after the war as much as you can and that you strive to keep growing for the normal times which we all look forward to. But, whether it be in war or peace I want to assureyou that you have the best wishes of the men and women who as your teachers have tried to prepare you for life. i Sincerely yours, , W five
