5 'JI IZ!! 4 i jg, O BE CHOSEN as editor of a Year Book for two consecutive years, is indeed a great honour. In presenting the second annual Oracle, we trust that, guided by past experience, we are offering you a Year Book worthy of acclaim. The story of the social, academic, and. athletic events of 1940-41 is presented to you in pictures and in word, and we feel that you will treasure the Oracle in future years as an album of reminiscenses, Let us give credit where credit is due: namely, to all students whose splendid contributions have been acceptedg to our staff advisors, whose kind criticism and assistance have been invaluable. It would also be extremely ungracious not to mention our advertisers, both local and out-of-town, whose generous support deserves your patronage. Our country is still engaged in a war, the end of which is not yet apparent. In these momentous times, preparedness is the watchword of all civilization. Each passing day demands our utmost for the assurance of victory, but, even after the war is won, the task we face is beyond our comprehension. There will be demobilization and rehabilitation which must be considered, even while the war wages on. When the last trick is played and the last shot fired, are we going to toss caution to the winds and live another interim of twenty years, a generation spent in gaiety, laughter and recklessness? Should we not plan for peace, a peace that will last until the end of time, marked by goodwill and brotherhood among nations? The students of today will be the leaders of tomorrow who will guide the destinies of the nations. Now is the time to build the foundation of good citizenship. An adequate education will be your first requisite. Courtesy, sportsmanship, co-operation and perseverance are developed on the campus and in the classroom. Practice the principles of brotherly love toward your schoolmates. Let friendship be the keynote of your life, then your contribution to mankind will be counted worthwhile. Four things a man must learn to do I f he would make his record true, To think without confusion clearly, To love his fellow-man sincerely, To act from honest motives purely, . - To trust in'God and Heaven securely. These are the qualities of ideal manhood given to us by Henry Van Dyke. LOUIS KLINCK.
