ptlilc SN 0, in FW i ' m t WS :5Fi3 'J5'3f' N1m'Z-W V 43 Xue 761 This ARTISAN belongs to Go west, young man, go west, advised Horace Greeley to young folk of the nineteenth century for, on lanuary 24, 1848, lames Marshall's discovery of gold in California started the stampede heading west-a stampede that seventeen young men from Mechanicsburg hastened to join. With this idea in mind, the 1949 Artisan staff reviews the saga of 138 Me- chanicsburg students in their four-year search for the gold mine of education and the nuggets it contains: the gold of language, of history, of science, and of art and music. However, the most precious nuggets of all are the many memories that the Artisan staff hopes this record of a school year will help to preserve. We of the staff wish to take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Elizabeth Orris for her assistance as class dean, Mr. Royce Pearson for his advice to the class artists, Mr. Norman Hunter for his cooperation as photographer, Mr. Carl Hamsher for guiding the seniors with this book, and the businessmen of the town for their spirit of helpfulness. We particularly wish to thank the 1. A. Bushman Company for permission to use excerpts from Miniatures of Mechonicsburg and Harcourt, Brace and Company, Inc., publishers, for giving us permission to use the song Cali- fornia from Carl Sandburg's The American Songbog, 1927.
