C,l'0Jeaf0na 1 9 4 3 PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE CONGRATULATIONS to the seniors of 1943. Your generous response of service in the community's war effort, your acceptance of re- sponsibility to promote the common good, your willingness to adjust yourselves to the nation's needs give an assurance that you are doing your part in the fight. We are now in a fighting epoch. The result will be deter- mined by ourselves. If we meet the issue intelligently, if we keep our grasp of affairs adequately, if we maintain our stand for the common good staunchly, if we prevent exploitation by special privilege successfully, we shalltmove forward to better times. Yours is the privilege of facing a great task that will demand the best you have of learning and thought. Best wishes! Pri nci pal C. E. GASKINS

Shall civilization go backward or forward, shall it veer to the left or right, shall it push upward, or go down the trail to despondency? The school, as the major public agency, instituted to safe- guard and perpetuate our way of living, must make its full con- tribution. If we hope to make democracy work in adult life, we must first make it work in the schools. Good teaching suggests it, common sense urges it, and patriotism demands it. Our democratic way of living is worth preserving, what- ever the cost may be. In school and out of it, we need to make vital the realization of what it means to live in a country in which we enjoy freedom and in which we rule ourselves. If there ever was a time in the last thousand years when we needed genuine teachers, it is now, when there is chaos about us. Here is the great chance for the public schools of Lebanon City to render a service that will go down through the ages. -H. S. BOLAN SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS AND OFFICERS DR. G.
