Foreword Few students consider the effect of the bell in regulat- ing their daily life. Each day is controlled by bells. we are awakened in the morning to the sound of a bell. Another bell sends us to school and informs uf of the changes of classes. Bells announce lunch time, then remind us to return to classes after lunch. Bells close the school day and begin lengthy telephone conversations. As night draws near, doorbells amiounce callers. Later in the night other bells send us back to our homes. In olden days the school bell was more widely used than today. It was rung on all oc- casions to call the community together. It was tolled when a prominent citizen died and was used as a distress signal. America's most famous bell, the Liberty Bell, was first cast in London and shipped to America. The first testing proved a fault in casting The second casting, done in America, also proved defective, and the same metal was used for the third casting. The bell rang on all special oc- casions until 1835 when it cracked on being tolled at the death of Chief Justice Marshall. Since that time it has remained silent, but its message of freedom and liberty is still ringing in the minds and hearts of all good Americans. Such freedoms as those an- nounced by the Liberty Bell have been the basis of our school and community life. In our 1955-56 Aerie we are attempt- ing to show our school life and how it is controlled by bells.
