OIGWOI HERE are few really lasting things in this world. The tangibles of life are quick to vanish before the inevitable advance of time. Wealth, fame, and power favor a man with only short and fickle glances. But the ability to remember the faces, scenes, and events of former days is one of the most enjoyable and permanent gifts bestowed on man- kind. For the June Class of 1940, the time spent in Emerson will soon be a thing of the past. New adventures, new paths lie open to us, all in varied directions, leading to different goals. And yet, we may pause a moment while, traveling the road of life and relive in memory the scenes of former days. Perhaps, we may take this book and glance through its pages, once again meeting familiar faces and reading cherished lines. And if a smile is brought to the lips and a tug to the heart, then our purpose is accomplished.
