The schools of today are the hope and concern of tomorrow. FOREWORD THE THEME selected for the Ravelings of 1934 is that of Recovery, for we have looked at Recovery and found it good. We were sunk in cynicism and depression, but suddenly we became a nation filled with life and hope and are at last facing realities and are gloriously begin- ning our task. Every great epoch in our national life has a certain and definite influence on our schools. There has been a tendency in the past few years to slight education. Though the black hand of the depression has made its imprint upon our schools, the imprint is not too deep to be erased. Through Recovery we have a clearer understanding of human needs, and as a result, a new era in education is arising. Its future is brighter, for we have seen the need of men and women thoroughly train- ed and equipped for good citizenship.

FOREWORD Out of the folly of the fool, out of defeat and wasted daring, Comes like the calm of the end and foredained to eyes that have strained and burned: The rising of the ghost of Beauty above the dark and troubled waters, Some thing retrieved from chaos, some thing kept whole, some thing returned. Max Press WITH THE things which have remained with us, we must go forward with new hope and vision, for where there is no vision the people perish ; and in vision lies our hope if we would reach a higher level of well-being. Our New Democracy must be built on a solid found- ation, and prosperity must begin at the bottom and work slowly upward, for a superstructure built too rapidly is likely to collapse. The road to Recovery must be illumined with the ideals of a new prosperity far reach- ing and permanent so that America may still realize the dream it once awakened in the hearts of men. Column by column we are building the edifice of Recovery. . V M IA turn ..TV. £ , t AT
