CDdifonal THE time is now at hand when we, as members of the Class of June, 1940, must take our places in this changing world, and in so doing, leave behind us our beloved Alma Mater, McKee. We are regretful at the thought of leaving these familiar halls where we have spent many hours of helpful study, and where our contacts with teachers and fellow students have brought us numerous happy experiences. As members of the graduating class we have been faced with difficult tasks to accomplish and problems to solve. It was only through the profound loyalty and ever guiding hands of our principal and our teachers that we have been able to overcome our difficulties. Now, our hearts are filled with the hope that we may be able to obtain the success that members of former graduating classes have realized. We consider this a just and fitting way to express our heartfelt thanks to our school for all that she has done for us. All that we ask of life is a chance; a chance to prove that our efforts are sincere and earnest, and that all has not been done for us in vain. Although we know that we are not trained artisans, we feel that we are prepared in a measure to meet life. We realize our need for future study. Each of us possesses a willingness to learn, to meet new situations, to solve new problems. Thus, we hope that we may continue to learn and to become correspondingly more useful in the various fields or our endeavors. McKee has trained us in these attitudes toward life, these ways of think- ing, along with the fundamentals of our several trades. It is for such as these that we shall always love her and strive to honor her. Kenneth Pfleging
