FARMINGTON STUDENT l i if 51'-is W ANNIVERSARY f Editorial HE whole country is in the throes of a great depression, a depression which is now well on its fourth year. Business is crippled to such an extent that unemployment has mounted steadily since that historical crash of 1929, Many of our former schoolmates are still on the outside looking in , and soon we, the class of '33, will be precipitated into the midst of the general chaos, having completed our required four years at Farmington High. A rather alarming and by no means pleasant prospect, to be sure: yet we are not daunted and have perfect confidence in our motto Qui Laborat Vincitf' Although our first bout with the business world will undoubtedly be a hard one, we are prepared to accept hard knocks philosophically, realizing that we are but a small group among many millions whose experiences during the past years have undoubtedly been much more extensive and bitter than ours will ever be. We feel that, slowly but surely, prosperity is rounding the proverbial corner and bringing with it many golden opportunities of which we shall be quick to take advantage. By earnest cooperation with the government and a general feeling of good will and confidence we shall surely prove that the younger generation can and will come through with flying colors. In writing this book we have endeavored to make it a worthy example of the work we are doing at school, and at the same time to show the marvelous school spirit and good will which make up a great part of our school life. Also may we here express our gratitude to the townspeople who, in spite of the existing economic conditions, have eagerly rallied to our support with generous financial contributions which have made the publication of this book possible.- HAZEL Al'.DERMAN.
