L EADERS The theme of this year's Myndersian suggests Then and Now and is especially appropriate since this marks the one hundredth anniversary of Free Education in New York State, for in 1849 the legislature first attempted to mandate a minimum amount of free common schooling. Previously each community was a law u11to itself relative to education. Those who wished for an education, and had the means, managed to obtain what they deemed necessary, but the majority received very little. Today education is free for all youth between the ages of five and eighteen. Beyond this the state through its teacher colleges, institutes and scholarships, has made it possible to obtain an education which fits the present student for almost any career. Let us hope that you, the Seniors of 1949, and those who are to follow, will make use of these opportunities and fit yourselves as better citizens for this, the best country in the world.

WAGON TRAIN FRANK PAGE Superintendent of Schools Seneca Falls, N. Y. Congratulations and best wishes to the modern 'UFORTY-NINERS. While the objective of the 1849ers was primarily material, you 1949ers are qualified for far greater achievements. You are among the fortunate 49 per cent of our nation's youth who will graduate from high school in '49. We trust that your GOAL wi-ll be greater than mere gold. Your knowledge, skill, critical thinking ability, and moral character, if properly developed and implemented, will insure personal success. The proper utilization of your abilities will also be effective in desirably shaping the future world situation. For every privilege there is a corresponding obligation or responsibility. Consequently, your GOAL in life should be much higher than that of the less fortunate 51 per cent non-graduates. HFORTY-NINERSQ' I challenge you to be always ambitious, courageous, strong and prosperous GOAL DIGGERSY' Keep your AIM high and you will meet the CHALLENGE. FRANK PAGE 10
