WHAT WOULD a representative of Lincoln High School's student body say to America if she requests a record of Lincoln's activities in a world at war? Our spokesman could say, Lincoln students are, first of all, Americans. Their school has been and shall continue to be typically American. Their lives are of necessity molded by the conditions existing around them. May he add, Since their life pattern is changed by such conditions we must accept as true the tact that students are assuming many of the responsibili- ties heretofore reserved for older persons who now shoulder arms for America. Do not imagine students to retain all the carefree ways displayed in peace- time. They show intense interest in the march of events. S Furthermore, High school pupils are an important cog in America's economic war machine. Lincolnites are holding down jobs, attending classes as usual, participating in all descriptions of drives to obtain needed materials, investing in what should better be called Peace bonds, and, like always, finding moments for relaxation and fun. Yes, we of Lincoln are taking our places as full grown citizens-earlier perhaps than our predeces- sors-but still citizens who envision and prepare for the future, hoping for a better world in which we all may live-as Abraham Lincoln once said, 'with malice toward none, with charity for all.'
