So now if you will bear with me and use your imagination as freely as l have used mine, we shall look into their dim dark futures. fln- cidentally its hard enough to think of my own future without thinking of four others alsol. As l look into the fish bowl-l mean crystal ball, who do you think I see? Nobody! Perhaps I had better use some of Mr. Kinsman's window cleaner. Oh! Now the crystal is beginning to clear. A blurred figure is begin- ning to take shape. lt's growing larger and larger -- now it's getting smaller and smaller. Here it comes again! lt's a blue-eyed blonde. lt must be Iackie Wootton, the famous movie actress. She seems to be hold- ing something in her hand, why it's a sweater she's knitting. ls she go- ing to be a sweater girl or is she just advertising her latest picture fReviewed in Liberty's Four Star Epic! entitled, Must The Window Be Open So Wide? Oh yes! l almost forgot to tell you, that a movie scout discovered lackie jitterbugging at the Waldorf-Astoria to Guy Lombardo's music. Needless to say Iackie was the most outstanding dancer on the floor. She was first used as a stand-in for Kate Smith until after shooting about 10,000 feet of film, the director suddenly discovered that the discrepency between lackie and Kate was a little too great. Well, strip my gears and call me shiftless, if it isn't Muriel Curran com- ing into vision - Chewing gum! Muriel has been terribly busy since she left Daycroft, she is managing two jobs at once Cbelieve it or notl. Muriel graduated from Katherine Gibbs Secretarial School and she now has a wonderful job as secretary to the president of the company, R.A.W.W.W.W.W., CReducing Aids for Women Who Wanna Wose Weightl, and she is also running her own school called How to Relax. in Spite of it All . Muriel has Cin her spare time, of course! written a book on humor: When and When Not to Laugh . Confidentially, when Muriel tells one of her jokes, she laughs when she tells it, she laughs when you laugh and to top it off she laughs when she catches on to the joke herself. Now that Muriel has herself laughing, let us go to one who is a little more serious. This character is Dan Starrett. Dan has been working furious- ly on the Starrett butterfly, moth and bug collection. ln fact Dan has done so much for the study of nature and its wild life that F.D.R. has made an addition to the Starrett Sanctuary of last year. 16 Besides this Dan is teaching Arithmetic, Algebra and the Multiplication Table at M.l.T. and he has also discovered the 93rd Chemical element which he has named Daycrottium. 'Oh yes, l almost forgot to tell you, Dan is the great Einstein's left hand man. Danny goes around and picks up the scratch paper which Einstein throws away. lack Palacios has done awfully well since he graduated from Daycrott. He was graduated with honors from Dale Carnegie's School of Salesmanship. Ever since then he has been selling refrigerators to the Eskimos at the North Pole and hot water heaters to the Ethiopians in Africa for the Sears Roebuck Co. lust between you and me, lack has done so well in his high pressure salesmanship that he has sold the Brooklyn Bridge to Hoot Mon MacGregor and he is working on a little deal to sell the Lincoln Tunnel back to Mayor LaGuardia. By night Iohn Albee, our rhythm master, beats the drum in his own orches- tra, the Down Brats, at the Cotton Club. By day, he grades papers in a nursery school. This lite is slowly impressing upon the public his versatality. Because of -his rhythmic ability, Iohn is being considered for Bill Robinsons part in a 'Broadway revival of the Hot Mikado. And so we leave the Chattanooga Chu Chu pulling out. Iohn Albee 17 A Senior's Day The senior day at Daycroft begins at 6:30 A. M. with windows slamming in the adjoining dormitory. Since it is wartime, it is very dark and you cannot see. One by one the boys file out of the dorm up to breakfast. After a rousing breakfast we go to assembly where it is announced that there are some sleds outside and that it will cost the owners five cents to retrieve them. Then you are told not to be late to classes, or you will have to stand on your chair during English class. Next come the classes. The first class is English, a good three minutes of which are taken up in compounding the day's equipment from the arsenal in the back of the room. Why don't you get your books before assembly? Now go, for my aim with this chalk is very good! The room, which has been filled with people suddenly clears, leaving the victims of senior English at the mercy of the professor. lack, open the window! says the professor. The window is opened, and for about two minutes class proceeds on schedule. Then someone says, Does the window have to be open so wide? So the window goes down again. Then someone else says, lt's too hot. The window goes up again, this time not as far. And so it goes from hot to poetry, and from The Skylark to St. Agnes' Eve, ah bitter chill it was. In spite of its ups and downs the English class goes on, with no casualties, until the bell rings. Out of the six in the English class, four file slowly into the next class: History. The first question in this thriving class is When did the Civil War begin? -Silence. All right, we will put it differently: When was Lincoln first elected? 'Silence. All right, we will put it this way: When was Fort Sumter bombarded? - Silence is golden except in History class. You have not read your material, says the professorp I would hate to see you people in an exam. And so we go with questions fabout events which l cannot rememberl until the bell wakens us. Out of the four in History class, two dash down to the Math. room alias the Laboratory. Here we are greeted by the beaming face of the professor and the hum of the fan. Good evening, says the teacher, pull up a chair. So we pull up chairs and industriously start to work. After a little while our attention is attracted to a medium-sized box in one corner of the room, over the edge of which a small brown head looks placidly. Down, Stoopl says the professor firmly to the little dog whose curiosity has become greater than his common sense. Stoop, DCDWNV' says the professor in a much firmer tone of voice. The head disappears, but there is considerable commotion in the box. There are small whining sounds which, when they take no effect, change to growls and much scratching and uncalled-for moving about. At this point the professor goes over to the box and does some severe talking, after which no more noise issues from that direction. But noise does issue 18 from another direction, in the form of a ringing sound, or the bell. We walk out with the words, You know your assignment, and go to recess. After recess, what there is of it, comes study hall, which is sometimes used as a time in which to study. More often it is used as a time in which to communicate with your neighbor or to throw spitballs at Iohnny across the room tnot stated in the Daycroft Manuali. After two of these interesting classes, the Chemistry class assembles. Before the students have time to discuss how hard the homework was, they hear a loud and clear call which cannot be denied: Take out a nice fresh, clean, glossy, shiny piece of paper: first question: 'What color is red phosphorus?' There is much scrambling, and paper, no matter if it is shiny or glossy or heaven knows what, is carefully ripped out of a book and made ready. Professor: Question two- First Student: Wait a minute, please, sir. Professor: Question three- Second Student: Slow down, please, sir! Professor: We will now correct the papers. The answers are as follows: Number one - red. By this time everyone is thoroughly mixed up, and the professor has compassion on the multitude. He peacefully glares at the class, while it finishes the questions. The answers are as follows: says the professor in a more subdued tone of voice. So it goes until lunch time when all people rush slowly to the cafeteria. After lunch there is the general confusionp then there is Student Council meeting in which the school is praised and everything is found to be all right. Then Chemistry Lab. We have an unusually potent experiment today: that of Hydrogen Sulfide. Everyone goes in with the determination to keep the ill-smelling gas in submission by making an offensive on leaky connec- tions and open generators. All goes quite well for a while, and it seems that the spirits of hydrogen sulfide will not get the better of the lab. session. Then, near the end of the hour, someone leaves the generator open, and the horrible odor of rotten eggs penetrates all corners of the room. The decks are cleared for action, and an all-out defensive is immediately in order. Quick, Henry, the Windows! Turn up the fan! someone shouts. He need not have said it, for everyone is rushing for the Windows. They are open in a jiffy, and the cold winter air blows into the room. At this move, everyone clears out of the lab. and the session is adjourned. After supper we trudge wearily down to the boys' dorm for three hours of solitary CPD confinement. 19 SENIOR DIARY SEPTEMBER 16 Here we are-all back together and ready to start another school year. 17 Back to the old grind this morning at 8:25.

Ami- -4 H. - - Student Council The Student Council is made up of two members elected from each class in the high school to serve for one year. They meet once a week without a faculty member and once a week with the Directress. The Council brings up the problems of the students and takes them to the faculty and tries to smooth them out. lt encourages students to come before the Council and discuss problems either individual or collective. The Council has arranged for two members of the Student Body to take charge of tables in the dining room in place of faculty members. This is one example of work done by the Council. In May, 1941, the Student Council of Cherry Lawn called a meeting of the Councils of Daycroft and Edgewood. At this meeting it was decided to form a League to promote inter-scholastic activities. The League scheduled its next meeting for September, 1941, to decide what activities to undertake. The League met in October and made arrangements to have eight stu- dents from each school visit the other schools on a given day, selected by the school.' The representatives to the League returned to their respective schools and discussed the proposed exchanges. At the second meeting of the year at Daycroft on lanuary 9th, the League decided to exchange two students from each school. The exchanges were: A senior and a junior representative from Daycroft visited Edgewood on Wednesday, Ianuary 14th Representatives from Edgewood visited Daycroft on Thursday, Ianuary 15th. A freshman and sophomore visited Cherry Lawn on Thursday, lanuary 20th. Cherry Lawn has not yet been able to send representatives to Daycroft. The Daycroft representatives gave reports to the Student Government on their visits to Cherry Lawn and Edgewood. There will be more activities scheduled by the League at its next meeting. A Senior Party is scheduled at Edgewood on February 28th. The work of the League has brought the three schools much closer and has encouraged the students to join together more often in social events. 23 luniors and Sophomores Back Row: lack Connelly, Violette Klinq, lohn Ramsmeyer, Donald Bly, Wesley Dahlgren.

The score at the end was a tie, one to one. A social hour with tea followed. The line up for this game carried through almost the entire season with only a few substitutions: this included the following. Goaly, Elinor Warren: Left Full, Betsy Lang: Right Full, Marion Handy: Left Half, Iune Urquehart-Laing: Center Half, Virginia Forbes: Right Half, Iackie Wootton: Left Wing, Betsy Graf: Right Wing, Elizabeth Sheridan: Left Inner, Sylvia Forbes: Bight Inner, Fran Sheri- dan: Center, Iackie Mangels. Fran Sheridan was the only one to score a goal. Cherry Lawn was the next opponent: and with a successful final score of two to noth- ing, we looked forward to a bright season. Iackie Mangels and Fran Sheridan :both proved themselves good material by scoring at this time. Pat Elmer, a new-comer to our hockey group, had a chance to show her merit when she replaced Sylvia Forbes. A close game on November thirteenth with Hamden Hall proved to be our first defeat. The score was one to nothing when the final whistle blew. We hoped to have a game on their field but were unable to make it. The following week we had our first game away, this one on the Thomas School field. A well sustained first period defense collapsed into a three to nothing defeat. Betty Garber and Pat Elmer had a few minutes in this game. On November eighteenth, New Canaan came to meet us on our field with a very superior team. The young girls of our school were given a chance to play: but they were no match for the New Canaan girls. A final score of four to one found New Canaan well in the lead. Thomas School came to our field for a return game on December third. At this time the Daycrofters proved a good match for them and were able to maintain a tie score. This bolstered their spirits and kept them in line for another tie score against Cherry Lawn just one week later when the girls ended their season with a three to three score. Elinor Warren was the captain, Iackie Mangels the manager and Fran Sheridan, chair- man of the entertainment committee. 28 fth- Jf! M 'ww' M0 l.Ctvw'f'7a ii..- - FOOTBALL Daycroft gave all her football effort during the 1941 season to produce a winning team! ' The A team was composed of the following: Casanave, captain and quarterbackg Law- rence, left halfbackp Mendoza, right halfbacky Stebbins, center: Lang, right endg and Bly, left end. The B squad included Carpenter, C. Vollmer, V. Vollmer, Arthur, Maclntosh and Guilbert. The season opened with a practice game with Edgewood defeated by a score of 21-U. Another victory over Edgewood was rung up the following week, the score this time be- ing 33-13. The first league opponent was Milford which was trounced 26-12. ln this game Don Casanave and Wallace Lawrence were outstanding in their broken-field running and line playing. Fairfield was next encountered and they were flattened to the tune of 26-6. The boys' team now really began to apply the pressure and Childrens Center and Umquoa both were soundly beaten by the score of 37-U. The last game of the season was indeed a test. Out-weighed by a considerable margin Daycroft showed its fighting spirit and outplayed Hamden Hall through most of the game. ln the third period, Don Casanave intercepted a Hamden Hall pass and was off down the field for a score. The at- tempt at conversion failed. With a minute and a half left to play, Hamden Hall after three attempts to crash Daycroft's defense, finally broke through and scored. Their attempt at conversion was blocked and the game ended in a deadlock score of 6-6. Because of the fine record the team achieved, they were awarded a trophy signifying the cham- pionship of the Connecticut Private School League. Two players were voted to the all-league team, Don Casanave as quarterback and Karl Lang as end. 29 Be-Tl, 0:53-4.4 . '+C MMG 'Q fA+fgg,,A SENIOR TEAM IUNIOR TEAM GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Daycroft girls' basketball season was considerably delayed in its opening due to poor weather conditions. February l9 was the day of the first game. Graycourt came to play on our floor, bringing with them a team vastly superior to that of last year. They were able after an excit- ing game to win by a score of 28-21. Cherry Lawn brought over two teams the following week. The juniors played first. On the Daycroft side Betsy Graf served as captain, and Elizabeth Sheridan, Betty Garber, Iune Urguhart-Laing, Klara Lang, and Sylvia Forbes completed the line-up. Many of these younger girls showed themselves to be good material in this their first game even though the final score found Cherry Lawn leading 22-10. The Seniors were a bit more successful in hold- ing back their opponents. The final score, however, was 18-ll. Edgewood was the next team to down the Daycroft seniors. A very fast game ended with the score for Daycroft resting at twenty-three points and that of the apponent double the amount. Both the juniors and the seniors were scheduled to meet new Canaan Country Day, but due to the present emergency only one game could be played. The final whistle blew ending the game with a score of 22-9 in favor of New Canaan. Return games are scheduled with Gray Court and Cherry Lawn and both junior and senior teams are looking forward with renewed vigor to these encounters. Frances Sheridan, an able forward, led the senior team with Iackie Wootton and Iackie Mangels serving as forwards, and Elinor Warren, Virginia Forbes, Marion Handy, and lean Matters as guards. 30 J A ' -'. J '?:' IUNIOR TEAM SENIOR TEAM BOYS' BASKETBALL Daycroft was represented by two teams on the basketball court. The senior team was led by lohn Albee and Iohn Barnseyer who served as co- captains, lack Palacios, Don Bly, and Don Casanave completed the team. Wallace Lawrence and Bob Mendoza acted as capable reserve material. The junior team was led by Don Casanave and ably supported by Bob Mendoza, Dick Guilbert, Lewis Bly, David Stebbins, Karl Lang and Van Vollmer. The teams competed in two leagues: The Connecticut Private School League and the Southern Connecticut League. The games were closely contested with the Daycrotters giving their all in every encounter. 31 v V l w P 5 33 W 1 34 35 MUSIC You should drop in to some Friday afternoon assembly and hear the student body sing- ing rounds! It would really be a treat, for it sounds like a true singing school. This is what the music department wishes to be-the fun department. More and more Daycrofters are learning to appreciate good music. Every Friday seventh period there is a large group that gathers to learn of the development of music and to hear symphonies. Then we have the true spirit of singing in the girls' glee club. Betty Garber says it's the most fun she has all week. Leilah MacRobert and Elizabeth Sheridan hold down the alto part against a real barrage of sops . For we have Muriel, Elinor, Iackie, Mangels, Marion Handy, Karen, Diana, Betsy Graf, and Patsy Elmer. As the girls join the glee club they must sing alone for the group-so recently Violet and Virginia Handy joined up with us. The girls demanded an audition. Virginia was Mary in our Christmas Play, so after her lovely performance she quite prepared to accommodate. 'Violet was taken by surprise but she did well. The glee club sang two Bach Chorales for our Christmas celebration. While speaking of the Christmas play, Don Casanave as Ioseph did a grand job opposite Mary . Karen Pearch and Peter Mclntosh were fine lnkeepers. Now we come to the department of pluggers-the orchestra. They aspire to such num- bers as Prelude to Act 3 of Lohengrin, Minuet from Haydn's Military Symphony, Andante from Tschaikowsky's Fifth Symphony, Theme from Beethoven's Second Symphony. Two faculty members help to support our eight students who give their all in seventh period on Thursdays. Betsy Lang and Mrs. Smart give the melody in the first violins, Karl Lang and Virginia Forbes give us the harmony on second violins. Don Bly flutes his way while Dick Guilbert clarinets his. Lewis Bly helps our versatile senior Don Starrett with his trum- pet. Don has taken up the French horn and plays it on some numbers. Mr. Kinsman holds forth with either his clarinet or his big saxophone and gives us a good bass. Munro Merrick plays all other parts including his own on the piano most efficiently. The orchestra played the Russian number- March of the Sirdar by Iwanow for our Washington-Lincoln Banquet, also a fine arrangement of the Star Spangled Banner, which Mr. Kinsman made for our group. Along in February everyone including the orchestra were in rehearsals for the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta Pinafore which Daycroft-is giving this year on International Day. Iohn Albee, Iohn Ramseyer, lack Palacios, Don Bly and Dan Starrett have been chosen for the male leads, While Iackie Wootton, Elinor Warren and lackie Mangels will be the prima donnas. as l ORCHESTRA 37 The Daycroit Society of Model Railroad Engineers The Daycroft Society of Model Railroad Engineers is in many ways the most disorgan- ized organization to operate at Daycroft. The society was organized in February of 1941 and has never held a meeting except when by accident two or more members have found themselves in the same place. Fortunately thishas happened often enough to produce some mile and a half tscale 3mm. equals l tootl of track, sundry mountains, a town or two, and others odds and ends. The pike started its career in the Physics Lab and in the fall of 1941 moved to its pres- ent quarters. All the members of the club are officers except Mr. Kinsman who is official Waterboy. Membership which is perpetual is as follows: Paul Starrett '41, Ex-Brass' Hat. Warner Forbes, '41, Ex-Brass Hat. Dan Starrett, '42, Active Brass Hat and Shaken Downer. lack Palacios, '42, Active Brass 1-lat and Supervisor of Tootsietoys. Iackie Mangels, '43, Active Brass Hat and Paint Filtcher. Don Bly, '43, Active Brass I-lat in charge of Short Circuits. Michael Mann, '44, Active Brass Hat in charge of Table Legs. David Stebbins, '48, Active Brass Hat in Charge of Stamford I-lock Shops. Andrew Starrett, '48, Active Brass Hat in charge of Good Excuses. Blair Kinsman, 'X, Water Boy and Bag Holder. 1 ' 'k't' , .- ...- f w . - . , ..a-'ff ,,,,,, . M ' ' 10' 4- - -.

Y iff , .39 ' ART Students at Daycroft who are interested in art and crafts have much opportunity to develop their talent in these fields. Twice every week classes at which instruction in the many phases of these subjects is offered. A stu- dent may choose between a class in crafts, carpentry, or painting, sculpture, and etching. Throughout the year a need often arises for posters, scenery, and various decorations for school events. Here, the art department has a chance for great activity. Students in this way are able to put their art to practical use. In the Lower School art is required, but among the older pupils it is purely optional. This makes the classes interesting, since each person is taking art because he wants to and is willing to work, using his own initiative. Every term many finished pieces of work are turned out. The rate at which a student works, and the amount of Work which he completes is entirely up to him. In short, art classes at Daycroft are the result of each student's eagerness to express himself through some medium ot art, and for this reason originality as well as quantity are not lacking in the work produced. 40 i The Crafts Class 1941-42 Who is in our Craft class this year? Let's see. We'll start with the Seniors. There is Iohn Albee, who is making a sterling silver bracelet with tiny animals mounted on it: then there-is lackie Wootton, who has completed a bracelet of hearts with the name Jackie mounted on the hearts. Iackie Mangels ot the lunior class has also made a bracelet of hearts of silver with her name on it and is starting a bracelet of silver leaves. Another Iunior, lohn Ramseyer, completed a good-looking silver initial ring for his mother. Betsy Lang started a ring, but had to change her class schedule, so we'll hope she can finish her work later. Betty Mendoza comes in on Saturdays often to work on a silver link bracelet. And Wallace Lawrence has finished four blotter corners for a leather desk set. The Sophomores and Freshmen are doing some nice things. Iack Connelly will have a Victory V of sterling silver after a bit more filing, and will then be ready to mount it on a base. Klara Lang will soon finish a pin with a stone setting. And you should see Michael Mann's silver tie clasp! Sylvia Forbes is doing two pins which she designed, and Iune Urquhart-Laing is starting a silver ring with an amethyst setting. Betsy Graf has de- signed two boxes and is doing a silver ring, and Bob Mendoza is working on a bracelet of silver twisted wire. David Stebbins made a plain band ring. Our lunior High School members, Iohn lagel and Andrew Starrett, are starting out on jewelry work too, now,-at present learning to saw animals out ot thin metal. And Diana Stroh is ready to start work on a silver link bracelet. Avril Urquhart-Laing and Pamela and Karen Pearch, along with Elizabeth Sheridan spent a few Saturdays working with us. And Bobby Sturtevant made a leash of leather tor her cat, and a German silver bracelet with a copper duck on it. We expect Mrs. Germain to make another pair of moccasins with us. We look forward to more work this Spring, articles ot leather, reed baskets, trays and woven scarts. 41 V l n 42 Albee lohn Arthur Rrchard Barkhurst Ion Blrss lane Bly Donald Bly Lewrs Best Ianet Starr Brown Ina Lee Bryson Patrrcra Buettner Carl T Buettner lohn Carpenter Roddy Casanave Don S Connelly lack Crrsler Cobby Crrsler Trmmy Curran Murrel Dahlgren Wesley Elmer Patrrcra Forbes Sylvra Forbes Vrrgmra Garber Betty Graf Betsy Graf Peter Gurlbert Ieanne Gurlbert Rrchard Handy Anabel Handy Marrorr Handy Sylvra Handy Vrrgrnra Hrldt Robert Iackson Donald Iackson Peggy I Iackson Tommy Iagel lohn Iagel Paul Kennedy Norman Klrnge Vrolette LaForge Davrd LaForge Charlarne DIRECTORY 14 Parley Vale larnarca Plarn Mass Shrub Oak New York Wrlton Glen Ave Glenbrook Nash lsland Noroton Nash lsland Noroton Dogwood Lane North Darren 59 Van Renssalaer Ave Stamford Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn 4l7 Park Ave New York Crty Rowayton Conn Rowayton Conn Tolland Conn tFall and Sprrngl l23O Srxth Ave N Y C U S Rubber Co Delancey Cove Road East Mamaroneck N Y l9O Longhrll Road Sprrngfreld North Stamford Road Stamford North Stamford Road Stamford lll 2l 76th Drrve Forest Hrlls Concord Lane Darren 0 Mrs Dahlgren Darren Brooksrde Road Darren Brooksrde Road Darren 64 Seawall Ave Brooklrne V Tobler Wrlton fo Tobler Wrlton 33 Brrch Road Darren 33 Brrch Road Darren Strllwater Road Stamford Strllwater Road Stamford Strllwater Road Stamford Strllwater Road Stamford West 106th Stre t New York Mass Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn Bdass Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn Conn N summers Sea Grrt N I l5 Hendrrcks Ave Norwalk Conn 15 Hendrrcks Ave Norwalk Conn 25 Webb Ave Stamford Conn 244 Pelhamdale Ave Pelham 244 Pelhamdale Ave Pelham Belle lsland South Norwalk 394 Burns Street Forest Hrlls New York Old Kmgs Hrghway Darren Conn Old Krngs Hrghway Darren Conn 43 , ...... 1 I I 1 ' , I . . ..... . , , . . ........

Then listen to what the editor of Liberty said:- There is more room for newcomers in the writing field today than ever before. Some of the greatest of writing men and women have passed from the scene in recent years. Who will take their places? Who will be the new Robert W. Chambers, Edgar Wallace, Rudyard Kipling and many others whose work we have published? It is also true that more people are trying to write than ever before, but talent is still rare and the writer still must learn his craft, as few of the newcomers nowadays seem willing to do. Fame, riches and the happiness of achievement await the new men and women of power. tWriting Aptitude Test-FREE! HE Newspaper llnstitute of America offers a free Writing Aptitude Test.

I am making my thoughts practical and clear. In these tempestuous times, we cannot afford to fool ourselves. We must be realistic in planning, and we must be emphatically prompt in action. We must do better work and more work than we have thought possible. We must leave off day-dreaming and concern ourselves with the present and immediate future, showing fortitude and steady application. Many of you are asking, What can I do to help? There is one answer that has brought opportunity to over 700 Merrill-trained boys and girls since Iuly, 1941. That answer is, S-E-R-V-E! These people have been trained in minimum time to give maximum service. Some are working under Civil Service in Washington: some are working in Defense Industries: some are working for private individuals: some are in the Armed Forces. They are secretaries, accountants, medical assistants, and by the time this is printed, there will be draftsmen,-all trained at Merrill. They are working and earning and contributing toward Winning This War! Merrill is on an all-out program. We are ready to train YOU for maximum efficiency in minimum time. School will be open all summer, with morning, afternoon, and evening programs. YOU CAN SERVE! J YOUR NATION NEEDS YOUR HELP AS AN INDEPENDENT WORKER! There will be years ahead, God willing, when you will have an opportunity to do many things, to try many types of work- when this War has become history and life assumes a calmer mold. BUT NOW ACTION IS NECESSARY! LET US PREPARE YOU TO DO YOUR PART TOWARD VICTORY! . Sincerely yours VIRGINIA DREW, Principal. The Merrill Schools .
