Dedication To Lincoln High School's veterans of World War H who were thrust prematurely into the conflict that threatened World freedom, to those ex-servicemen of any service who must carry memories of bloody battlefields instead of muddy football fields, to those who did not Witness war as a mighty, glorious spec- tacle, but fought in it as the grim, merciless combat it was, to those young boys who were sent away to face the disillusioning reality of the world and are returning, now men. to try to weave the broken threads of their lives into a pattern for the future . . . and to those who did not come back , . . We dedicate this 1946 Lincolnian. For many years Lincoln's halls rang with their laughter, but when the tidal wave of hatred finally touched our shores, these halls were suddenly quiet, for a time: then they were gradually emptied of these eager youths, whose absence was noted with a star on the school service flag. And when the long War years were climaxed with victory, they began to come back, resuming their school careers, taking their places in a completely changed world, a hard task for the many who still bear the scars of war. But too many paid the supreme sacrifice and are now only memories It 1S to these veterans both living and dead tha wedeaicafeoufbook. 1 I i ' M W Wi yfjpwwy M VMWWWQD Mqjjf wwf W , awffifmlfgfe

'PEN 1 Foreword Twice each year the new sophomores storm the portals of Lincoln High School, some bewildered and anxious, some confident and carefree, but few aware of the full significance of the three eventful years they will spend here. For these students the Lincolnian will be a guide- book, acquainting them, through the medium of words, photographs and sketches, with school life as it is during one action-filled year. The juniors may use the annual as a measure to see if they have made the best of their time spent at Lincoln, in scholastic attainment as well as extra- curricular activities. To the seniors it will mean much more. The Lincolnian is their book. lt is a record of their activities and their achievements. lt is a book of memories that they will cherish long after they leave Lincoln and the friends made here. But the 1946 yearbook has another purpose which is carried out in its theme . . . The Doors of Lincoln. How many times each day Abes open and c'ose them! But how often do they glance up at the inscriptions over these doors? Perhaps this annual will help them to realize that Justice, Good Will, Grace, Courage, Reverence, Simf plicity . . . are more than mere words, These are the keys to happiness and success not only during their school careers, but throughout the whole adventure of life which will begin in earnest for them when they pass for the last time through l-incoln's doors.
