OUR SCHOOL IN POSTWAR DAYS OW that the war is over many schools have resumed activities which were curtailed during the days of war. Gradually our school routine has become more like it used to be before the war. As a result of the war there are many new phases of science to be studied such as electronics and atomic power. To some extent the students are now studying these interesting things. Our school building has been used more by the community since the war's end. Meetings are held in the cafeteria and auditorium. Dances have been numerous. The Home Bureau, Chamber of Commerce and American Legion have all made use of our school. Our studies are very important and we are trying to learn the changes which have been brought about as a result of the war. ln social studies a new phase of the history of the war is being studied. The events of this war are being studied. The members of the classroom are attempting to solve the world problems of today as well as to try to figure out the whys and wherefores of the past events. As a result of the war a new field of literature has been opened to the English student. Many new, interesting and popular works have evolved from war adventures and are being read by high school students. A great many new subjects for compositions and essays have come to light. There was much appreciation as shown by the large number of students desiring to attend the out-of-town sports events, when buses were once again allowed to take them to the games. These are but a few of the changes that have come as a result of this past w-.. era. Many customs and ways of teaching will be different as time goes by but this is how it stands at present. Familiar faces began to appear this year when many of our boys and girls returned to greet former teachers and classmates. In March 1946 there appeared on our Honor Roll 272 names and of these 178 have returned from the service and have been honorably discharged. From the many battlefields, areas of war, and prisoner-of-war camps these boys and girls of Ovid Central came back to their homes and families. We hope that the remaining ones will return soon. Our hearts go out to the families of these three boys whose names will go down forever as giving the last full measure of devotion to their country. ARTHUR G. DEPEW i' WILLIAM J. EDWARDS i' JAMES SPENCER
