PURE WORD These are momentous times. The events of the past year have reached even into our comparitively shel- tered school lives to let us exult in victories won and grieve for relatives, companions and leaders lost. The Allied forces have had unprecedented successes, a President was elected for a fourth consecutive term, and that same President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, passed away April twelfth, but a few months after his election. Peace throughout the world was his dream. lt is the dream of our former classmates, now in the armed forces. It is our dream too. We' realize that our future lies on our own shoulders. When the Peace has come, it will be our task to maintain it. From our ranks will come the leaders of the post-war period. The responsibilities of such a position cannot be met with an inadequate education. For this reason, we have elected to remain in school as long as possible. While obtaininq the necessary knowledge, vnu- rnerous events interrupt the routine of our scholastic endeavors. ln this book, we have attempted to record, as a part of the history of the school, the activities, the social affairs, and the literary achievements of the year, as well as the faces that we have seen in the halls andlin the class rooms. Our theme is Lite in Lincoln. We hope you enjoy your book not only now, but also in that distant time when you may wish to reminisce.
