1943 In a world at war, certain institutions take on new aspects . . . such an institution is the school system of America. Especially in crises such as this there is a need for enlightenment . . . education . . . far-sightedness. Because our schools have failed in com- pletely instilling these principles in American youth, our democracy is imperfect. Yet, more than any other single factor, education is respon- sible for the democratic way of life and its realization . . . the end toward which our government is working. 1 herefore The Crier is published this year with a two-fold aim. l irst, we have tried to record the activities of the school year . . . this is the purpose of every yearbook. But second, we have attempted to em- phasize our contributions to the war effort. Most of our contributions . . . Home Nursing courses, scrap drives, using less metal in the production of The Crier . . . can’t be called mo- mentous sacrifices. But a great many F. T. H. S. graduates are in the serv- ice .. . one has given his life. Some of us, the very students publishing this annual, are going to fight the war first-handed in a few months. I hese we call momentous contributions. Above all, we recognize the fact that the school system is the funda- mental guardian of democracy. And only when youth all over the world is offered the opportunity for enlightenment can there be a lasting peace. Only when education is universal can there be hope for a better world. . . . For this we are fighting . . . CARLLENE STEIDINGER, F.ditor-in-Chief.
