s .A+ .A+ Q T 50+ A A . Q' edfcat: on HEN our forefathers settled in this small hamlet nestled among the rolling hillside on the banks of the majestic Hudson, they did so with a strong purpose in mind. It was that of giving young and old the chance to thrive in their respective pursuits in life. From its very beginning, Ossining was a prosperous little community of energetic citizens who possessed an altruistic and benevolent respect for the welfare and well- being of all. With the passing of the years appeared countless innovations, some transi- tory, some achieving permanency by their infusion into daily living. Though the modern age of machines, ultra penthouse apartments and fabulous luxuries was not yet upon them, these folks seemed to forge ahead as rapidly, in comparison, as did their descend- ants, who had the material advantage in the years that followed. Today we are not unlike our forebears because in this modern era of atomic energy, our townsfolk are still blazing trails in new fields of endeavor. Enriched by the wisdom and experience of their ancestors, they have succeeded admirably in carrying on the traditions and spirit of the past. Our teenagers, though they may be termed frivolous, are fully aware of the in- dissoluble tie that binds their school and the community. The feeling of interdependence and twofold cooperation which accompanies this band, without the villagers' whole- hearted interest, would afford little incentive to students to become the leaders of to- morrow. On the other hand, our Ossiningites can never be oblivious of the contributions which the rich blood of adolescence and youth lends to a thriving community. These young men and women are the potential teachers, mayors, town assemblymen and judges within the confines of our village in the not-too-distant future. Thus, link by link, this firm relationship has become molded into an indissoluble chain. So it is with a feeling of great pride that we dedicate this, the 1947 Wizard, to our community. May it continue to flourish prosperously in the future as it did in its colorful and memorable past.
