01 EWOI' AQfff kfffffe HEN, in the course of human events, Q Z it becomes necessary for the Class X of 1940 to dissolve the bands which have connected them in daily association with one another and with the school, and to assume the roles for which our training in this school has befitted each one of us. we desire some token by which our classmates and the shared incidents of these momentous years together may be brought back to us. For this reason, we are following an established tradition, that of editing a Class Book. During the four years we were at high school. because of the strife and unrest in the world, we, in America, were influenced a great deal by a newly-awakened spirit of pride in our nation because it, above all others, kept to the democratic ideals upon which its government is based. Therefore, we, the editors, in the hope that this book will keep before us always a reminder of the fact that our country manifestly protects our inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, chose Democracy for our theme. H. G. F. 5
