You HAVE BEEN TAUGHT to solve some hard problems while you have been with us. We trust that the power gained in the solution of these problems will enable you to overcome many of the difficulties which today confront both nations and in- dividuals; some of these are the conquering and holding in check the arch enemies of freedom; the rehabilitation of wounded and war-worn soldiers and the reconstruction of a devastated world; the building up of an economic system that will prevent wars. The world is yours to fashion as you see fit. You have youth, ambition, training, tolerance, faith, devo- tion, and perseverance. May success be yours. Leon R. Meadows, President.

ADMINISTRATION The message I wish to give you has been well expressed by Patience Strong when she says: One Hfe and one alone we have to live upon this little earth. One life in which to learn so much — to seek and find and prose our worth. So waste no time on fruitless quests that get you nowhere in the end. The gold of Time is yours to squander or with care to use and spend. ANNIE L. MORTON Patriotism must transcend selfishness and personalities. Loyalty must surpass expediency and personal ambition. Truth must ever be the paramount factor in the realization of freedom. Unbiased convictions based upon truth, honesty, and sincerity must be the sole s uide of human life. DR. HERBERT ReBARKER
