T WORK We have tried to pattern our Courier after this theme. Our photog- rapher, Ed Schinke, succeeded in getting pictures of men and women at work in several factories in our community. Due to the difficulty involved in getting pictures and gaining permission, we believe. he did an outstanding job. Our deepest gratitude goes to Lieutenant Campbell of the Sixth Service Command for his help in securing these photographs. As shown by our art work we have examples of men laboring in lields, in laboratories, and in factories. We have also tried to bring out our theme throughout the book with interviews, stories, and poems. We have, again, proudly dedicated this Courier to the Fenger students who entered the armed services since February, 1943. And so, with these thoughts in mind, we present to you the june 1943, Feuger Courier. Patricia Liston, Editor In-Chief Bob Carlson, Editor In-Chief

OUR CDU TR1 We chose this as a topic for the june 1945 Courier because it sym- bolizes the conditions of our country in its struggle to uphold the freedoms stated in our Constitution. When the United States was ruthlessly attacked by the Japanese nation, the people of America responded valiantly to President Roose- velt's plea for cooperation. Immediately factories produced neces- sary war materials. Airplanes, tanks, and guns rolled off the assembly lines instead of automobiles, refrigerators, radios, and other so-called luxuries. Goals set by the War Production Board were reached months ahead of schedule. The United States proved to the world it could do what was termed the impossible. Thus the will, earnestness, and determination of the American people, to work for their country is more evident today than ever before. Witlm the help of the man behind the man behind the gun, through his hard labor and sacrifices, we will bring peace into the world again. Having learned from previous mistakes we hope this peace will be everlasting.
