We feel that at this time our dedication of the 1919 Reveille annual is peculiarly appropriate. The eight former Newark High students to whom this issue is dedi- cated, paid the supreme sacrficeffor us- and we believe that the least we can do to commemorate their deeds is to dedicate this issue to them with all due respect and honor. manity. No better example of unselfish ser- vice need be sought. No honor too great can be paid these our heroes, who sprang to the defense of thefr country. They have set a notable example for future generations. Their memory is our most precious heritage. Soon after the entry of the United States in the great world war, they responded to the call 'tto arms, giving themselves volun- tarily to the cause for which they paid the supreme sacrifice. It is for us to carry on. We may have our bronze tablets as an im- perishable commemoration to these heroes, but let us also commemorate their deeds by trying to make our llves as much like theirs as possible. This war was necessary, not only in the eyes of the soldier, but also in the eyes of all those who treasure life, liberty, and a permanent peace. Let us then think of these eight not as dead but in a better world than this, where there is no war or turmoil, and say with Robert W. Service: So you'll live, you'll live, my lads, In the gleam of the evening star, ln the wood-note w.ld and the laugh of a child, In all sweet things that are. And you'll never die, my wonderful boys, lfVhile life is noble and trueg For all our beauty and hope and joy We will owe to our lads like you.
