ARE PRUUD TO BE AMERICANS THE AMERICAN SCHOOL The main sail of our ship of state is the school, for therein lies the hope of our nation. What We are taught and how We are taught is all important. No American youth leaves the school Without possessing a thorough knowledge of the history, the principles and the incal- culable blessings of American liberty. Here the boys are educated to be the trained soldiers of Constitutional freedom, and the girls, the intelligent lovers of free men.

VVE HONOR OUR FRIENDS OF THE STUDENTS AND MEMBERS OF THIS ARE SERVING IN THE ARMED UNITED STATES OF AMERICA In answer to our nation's call for men, many stu- dents, teachers, and alumni of Mars High became part of Uncle Sam's great fighting forces-active on land, in the air, and on the sea. These boys, and millions of others like them, are today fighting, and perhaps dying, in many parts of the World, so that We may retain the democratic principles We have had since the signing of our Declaration of Independence. With the prayer in our hearts that the Work of these Valiant armed men may not be in Vain, We dedicate this 1943 publication of 'The Planet.
