Steel and Spirit Fiijlif Together We, the 1944 Staff of THE EMERSONIAN, humbly dedicate this record of our joys, heartaches, activities, our thoughts, and hopes, to the gallant Emersonians who are fighting land who will fight) on European battlefields, under tropical suns of the South Pacific, in China skies, through the bitter cold of the Aleutians, and under Medi¬ terranean waters. To these, we dedicate this book. We include in this dedication the fathers, brothers, mothers, sisters, relatives, and friends of the Emerson com¬ munity who got steel dust in their eyes to see these heroes home. These men and women of all the Cary mills also served. Steel, our background and our heritage, is a fitting theme. From many parts of Cary, from the Duneland and the lake front comes Youth, raw material, to Emerson ' s portals, to be tested and tried, blended and selected, for the purpose of producing human beings comparable to the steel made in our town. From the crucible they must emerge ready for the preservation of the American Way: “principles of democratic constitutional government — devotion to justice — respect for the pledged word, and love of peace.” Henry LeRoy Abegg P.O. 2 c Anthony J.
