(dnr HE Bugle is an annual record in print and picture of the activities and achievements of the students of Crescent Heights High School. Dealing almost entirely with the actions and personalities ot the student body, it is a publication of great interest to those presently attending school and to their parents and friends. In addition, it has served during the war years the fine purpose of informing ex-students in the armed forces in various parts of the world of the manner in which their successors in Crescent Heights School are using the opportunities for intellectual, social and physical devel¬ opment which a modern high school offers. As they read this year’s “Bugle” these ex-students will no doubt laugh at the jokes and jibes and smile reminiscently at the reports of club and group activities. They will be interested in the biographies, the individual and group pictures, they will be proud of the school’s successful record in sports and they will study with care the more serious articles and statements which appear in the publication. These ex-students, many of whom are enduring the most difficult and dangerous experiences that humans can be asked to undergo, would agree, as they look back on their own years in high school and as they contemplate their present duties and their future problems, that the school’s purposes for its students, of sound mental and physical health, accurate and extensive knowledge and alert trained minds, are valid both in war and peace. They would wish that the students now in attendance at Crescent Heights School should use to the full their present educational opportunities and prepare themselves well to meet the varied requirements of citizenship in post-war years.

( 7 $TX O all those from this school who have gone to fight our battles over — ' the seas—God speed. To all of you who will leave us at this gradu¬ ation time, good luck, and a successful career in your chosen vocations. We have been privileged to receive our education during the most ex¬ citing and momentous years of history. Perhaps we have but slightly ap¬ preciated the opportunity we have been given to develop our minds, bodies and personalities. Realizing that this opportunity has been bought only at the cost of the lives of many, we feel it almost a sacred obligation to use what we have re¬ ceived to the fullest and best advantage. Sooner or later will come our chance to use our training and show that we have learned the lesson of these dreadful years. Through all times we have let a few great men bear the burden of trying to keep society on a high level. Scholars, scientists, humanitarians, have given the best they had, inspired by the ideal of a better world. The most recent and moving example is the untimely death of President Roosevelt. The responsibility carried by such men as he, belongs not to the few, but to the masses. It belongs to you and me. It is our privilege and our duty. Our soldiers have played their part well. To us belongs an even greater role and challenge, keeping the peace. This task will demand everything of us—alertness of mind, health of body, and purity of spirit. It will demand more than we can accomplish alone. ‘‘Dear Lord of Heaven and Earth Give us these strengths When Victory comes . . . Guide us to peace Forever and ever.” ROBIN WOODS. Page twelve
