EDITORIAL F OUR years ago w: were wandering freshmen gazing at the majestic splendor of the seniors in amazement. Now we too are seniors; yet somehow the glory .eems not so bright as we had imagined it to be. The heigh ' s, once having been scaled, seem but mere foot- hills. Ahead of us loom bigger and broader horizons. Pausing before the commencement of a new life, we are beset with the strange realization that we have grown up. School days are behind — the world lies before, the world and a new life. Waxing reminiscent, we think of our high school days. Our alma mater is the new Ipswich High School; we can- not remember the first four months of our freshman year at old Manning. The numerous advantages which we enjoyed in cur new quarters cannot be over-em- phasized and we hope they have been properly appreciated. We shall for- ever remember the friendships we have made during these days and hope that they only grow stronger in the years following graduation. But now we are on the brink of a new life. As we look about us, we :ee th: whole world at war. You ' h is being sacrificed at the altars of freedom and liberty. Savagery, hate, and animal fury have been unleashed. Indescrib- able agony and destruction are going on in all parts of the world. The prob- lem of unemployment remains. Indeed, the universe seems to be riding on a black tempest the outcome of which no one can foretell. Such therefore is the setting of the world stage upon which we are to act our life roles. But w,e must have courage as we take the step in ' o the unknown abyss of the future. Young and untried, but with a gallant cry of We are here , we enter the arena of life. There is work to be done. 16
