 7a Science School Students . . . The student cabinet held several meetings last fall before making the decision to get out an annual this year. The final decision was based on the fact that the annual provided an excellent record of school events and the student cabinet did not wish to have a blank year in this record. With a rapidly changing student body, getting out an annual has been a teal problem this year, and 1 wish to congratulate members of the staff for their continued effort. It is a much smaller book and less elaborate than in former years, but considering the difficulty under which it was produced, it is an excellent job. I feel that every student in school this year will be glad to have this annual as a permanent remembrance of this particular school year. E. F. RILEY President

Some of our iris have enlisted and others arc already at essential jobs. These words will reach many of you in distant lands or on far-off seas. So act, wherever you are, that all of us may attain to victory. After victory comes, as it will, so act that all of us may achieve a just and last-in peace. F. H. McMahon and 7siade Stndenti . . .

You men and women who came to the State School of Science tlii year could not make definite plans for the future. You enrolled last fall hoping to stay in school long enough to acquire some special abilities of value in the war effort. Congratulations and success to all of you who went ahead with your job or assignment under adverse conditions. You have developed qualities that arc needed when the chips are down. Men of the L’. S. Navy have been with us all year, and in their vernacular I say to each of you “smooth sailing and the best of luck. G. W . H averty
