MRS. RATHMELL Class Sponsor To 'rms Cmss or JUNE, 1946: Never in the past, as now, have world events entered so rap- idly or so deeply into the daily lives of every individual. The radio, the airplane, the many other astounding scientitic inventions and discoveries have changed the meaning of the word, neighbor. Our neighbors have ceased to be only those in our immediate geographic environment. The area has Constantly widened, like the ripples that follow a stone thrown into still water, so that now who can point out the stopping place? 'l'he United Nations are striving at present to establish peace, to settle the relationships between nations so that the countries of the world can live as good neighbors. Regardless of your immediate plans for the future, whether they be for study, a career, or a home, you will find your horizons broadeningg then should come an increasing realization of your re- sponsibility to become a thinking member of society. You cannot close your eyes and ears to world problems, for what may appear to affect only one group sometimes expands and engulfs many. VX hat can you do? Read, listen, think-on all sides of a ques- tion, not just from the angle of your own personal desires and needs. Our nation and the world need much more than just citizens, they need citizens who are also understanding, willing neighbors to all. 7
