In war even more than in peace there must be efficiency-we must do our most and best with the minimum of waste of our own and others' time, energy, materials, and property. Your suggestions for improvement will be appreciated more than ever. Rules and authority must be obeyed more strict- ly, and penalties to violators and slack- ers will be more severe because now the offense of non-cooperation is more serious. Maintain and improve your health for your own efficiency. Help each other more than ever to learn, study, and accomplish: to overcome special problems, to correct errors and faults, to keep the rules of the school, of the city. of the country. and of de- cency-to be proudly patriotic Ameri- cans. ll8l ERLENE VVEINMAN Have you met herf' You really slzoulrl, Shflf the kind fl1:1l'5 your friend for good.
