OUR PRINCIPAL ROYE R. BRYANT WORLD HISTORY Southern Illinois Normal University, Ed. B.; University of Illinois, M. S. TO THE STUDENTS OF THE METROPOLIS COMMUNITY HIGH SCHOOL The quiet, almost dignified way in which graduates of the Metropolis Community High School, still in their teens, have gone about the business of preparing to die for the land they love is proof enough that they have an understanding of the values of their way of life, freedom and Alma Mater. They are cheerfully surrendering their years of joyous youth that the loyal, intelligent, tolerant citizens may be challenged to their best endeavors. Our nation has called on its young men and young women for the ultimate test of their courage and loyalty. They are meeting that test in the war; in the days of peace that are to come, their enthusiasm will enable them to build a country worthy of their vision. Students of the Metropolis Community High School, will your preparation and ambition qualify you as citizens of the new world?
