FOREWO R I) You are you! No one else can think for you — No one else can act for you — Your success is yours alone — Your failures lie at your own door — You will get what you earn — You will suffer as you deserve — You will enjoy according to your merit. And so from here you now go forth To make your future. Clayton R. Wise, Principal DEDICATION For his efficient guidance through our year and a half of class organization, administration, and social affairs; for the time and energy he unselfishly devoted to that task; for his congenial but frank manner in advising us; for his never-failing, deep-seated sense of humor; and for his years of service to Glenville, we, the Class of January, 1940, respectfully dedicate this Olympiad to . . . KIMBER M. PERSING.

IN DEDICATION BLUMP of clay lay in the Artist’s hands Dragged from the earth’s strong, clinging sands, Tempered by wind and warmth and rain, Aged by storm and strife and pain; Yet smooth in substance, as if it had been Destined to be part of some finer thing. From this He made an elemental mold For all leaders. To break the unliving cold He took the softness of rain, the brilliance of snow, The sweetness of dew, the moon’s mellow glow, The strength of the day, the silence of night, The flash of lightning, the clearness of light, The power of thunder, the wind’s slashing drive: The passions of Nature,—to make them alive; Then breathed a spirit into them to begin That life which all geneses bring. Before the Artist, the five of them stand: Pride of His heart, work of His hand. He views them now with a critical eye To see how they’ve done. And you and I, In case we need vouch for them, stand by. — Helen Manheim.
