oO Ke, oreword. Justice and tolerance are two principles of the highest importance to the nations of the world in this critical period at the end of World War II and the beginning of the postwar era when the nations are undecided as to what course they should take to gain and to insure everlasting peace. If every individual of the nations would practice these two important principles—justice and tolerance —the people of the world would be insured of their “rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Mrs. Fred B. Dixon, the wife of our principal, has ably expressed our thoughts in the following poem: Clad in his silken robes, John Marshall sat, Dispensing justice to a watching world, Putting new strength into our infant laws, And where there was no precedent, creating one! Shabby and tall and gaunt, he walked about the streets of Richmond, His market basket on his arm, a scarf wound about his throat, Stopping to chat briefly with neighbors, While his keen eyes bored thru all sham and pretense, And his hearty laugh boomed out to warm each honest heart. Today, beside his home on Marshall Street, there stands a high school bearing his proud name, And, (so we hope) dispensing justice still, to all the youth who enter its broad doors. For now a weary world, hungry and cold and bitter at its heart Is turning once again to watch our land, To see, if here, at least, Justice still holds sway. May every boy and girl who passes thru the doorway Of John Marshall High School Go out, resolved that the high purpose of the man whose name they bear Each time they call themselves “The Justices’, Shall be upheld in all they do and say, Remembering One who said PROPERTY QR Think not that I am come to destroy the law RARY OF VIRGINIA RICHMOND, VA .. . 1 am not come to destroy but to fulfill . . .”
