That Connecticut is alive to these dangers is demonstrated by the interest which her young men and women are taking in government affairs. School and study groups have shown an in- creased interest in how government is carried on in town, state and nation. Willingness to sacrifice private interests to serve in public office has been demon- strated by competent citizens. We may ask how we, as individuals, can contribute to our country’s welfare. Let us remember that a nation’s greatest asset is her people. The achievements of Connecticut’s sons and daughters have helped to shape our national des- tiny and have been felt in all parts of the world. We can help by serving our government w ' henever possible and by lighting little candles of faith and hope in our particular spheres. May we always cherish the words of the Rever- end Thomas Hooker, our first Connecti- cut Yankee: “As God has given us liberty, let us take it.” Classmates, the time has come for us to say farewell. As we pass this mile- stone in our education, it is fitting for us to recognize those who have contri- buted to our welfare; namely: our parents, the Superintendent of Schools, Karl D. Lee, our Principal, Ernest K. White, our teachers, and the Enfield Board of Education. It is my privilege to express the gratitude of the Class of 1951 to these persons who have marched together in our behalf. Anne Williams
