TO THE CLASS OF 1944; At the present time there can be seen in the newspapers and magazines a mounting list of educational opportunities that are being prepared for the benefit of the boys when they come out of the armed service. The expense of these educational advantages will be met by the national gov- ernment. The lesson to be learned from this vast preparation for continuing the interrupted schooling of our young soldiers is perfectly obvious. After the war we shall be confronted by a world filled with a great amount of competition and the rewards will go to the best prepared. The authorities at Washington know this and they are trying to see that several millions of young Americans will have the opportunity, if they care to avail them- selves of it, of preparing themselves to meet these changed conditions. Every high school senior should ponder over this situation and not be misled by the present topsy-turvy condition of the world which will lead the thoughtless to believe that the old rule — the best prepared will come out on top — has ceased to exist. It behooves every youth, then, to continue his education most earnestly. Do not think that next June should write ’’Finis to your efforts at self-improvement. Whether it be in college, night- school, or through self-effort, continue steadfastly in your efforts to make yourselves well prepared to face the conditions you will meet in post-war America. Most sincerely, JAY W. WORRALL
