We stand in deep admiration as We contem- plate the sacrifices made by hundreds of our former students in the effort to win a complete victory in the present conflict. To these, as well as to those yet to be called into the service, we on the home front pledge our earnest support and prayers. During the years that the class of 1945 has been in high school we have changed from a peace time to a 'war time economy. The members of this class have shown remarkable initiative, courage, and foresight during a period filled with uncer- tainties and emotional strain. Many have carried heavy Work programs at home and in industry in addition to their school responsibilities. Some have completed requirements for graduation while serving with the armed forces. We are proud of these young people and the contribu- tions they have made to the War effort, We have faith in their ability to help in the building of an enduring world peace. I2

. C. MARDIS The thousands ot hours spent every week in business and war industry to relieve the manpower shortage, the thousands of ar- ticles made tor the Red Cross to use in Qrmy and Navy hospitals, the support given to salvage and conservation, the purchase ot War bonds and stamps, the service donated to local hospitals, all demonstrate as clearly as do the three thousand stars in our service tlag, that the pupils of Lincoln high school know this is their war. My personal greetings go to all sons and daughters ot Lincoln high school, whether in uniform or still in school better preparing themselves to do their lull share in the war, and in the peace to follow. Let our constant prayer be that We will always prove worthy ot the responsibility and opportunity which is ours. ' i ' L Mr. Mardis, seldom seen in the capacity ot teacher, takes over in the class room Tuesdays and Wednesdays, fifth period, in 403, when he teaches the military map reading class.
