THE PRINCIPAL ' S ESSAGE An official, city-wide contest was held this term for the best essay by a high school student on Thanksgiving For America . Our English teachers selected the composition that in their opin- ion best represented the work of our English Department. The Judges awarded first prize to the essay from Lowell High School. This essay carries the message I had in mind for you, and far more convincingly than anything I might have written. I quote it, therefore, with permission of the writer, Robert Twohy: I, an American, thank God for many things: I thank God that my national anthem sings of bombs that have burst, and not of bombs that someday shall burst. I thank God that the men of my country, though they may be forced into bread lines, will not be forced into battle lines. I thank God that I am tongue-free, not tongue-tied; and that when I read my morning paper, I may read the lines, and not between them. I thank God that I may state my religion, and need not make a state my religion. I thank God that a ' powerful offensive ' does not bring to my mind a million men with guns — but rather eleven men with a football. I thank God that the only concentration camp I know is the classroom. I thank God that my urge to victimize is a youthful urge, and is conf ned to two days of my year: the first day of April, and the last day of October. I thank God that soft chimes, and not shrill sirens, will sign off my radio programs. I thank God that my country is a gateway, and not a dead wall. I thank God that my neighbors and I live in America — and that America lives in us. L. H. STEPHENS. B«M
