HOWARD D. MCEACHEN. A. B., A. M, SUPERINTENDENT I X if Students of Pittsburg High School: You have chosen a timely theme for the nineteen forty-four Purple and White, namelyg Education for World Peace . Throughout the ages education has often been used to mold man's thinking toward inter- national hatred and war. Today men and' women are thinking in terms of those conditions which will guarantee to the world a permanent peace. They are talking of causes and eHect relationships, and the same machinery which has been used to incite ill will may now be used to cultivate good will. They want to know what causes wars and what conditions are con- dusive to peace. Attitudes are not inherited. but are developed through education. The kind of peace the world will enjoy will be the kind of peace that is written ini the hearts and minds of youth by the teacher of the world. It is, therefore, imperative that we develop through education those attitudes that lead toward peaceful relationships between nations. The fact that you chose Education for World Peace as your theme proves that you are aware of the problem and it indicates that you have profited by your training. You are to be congratulated for the trend of your thinking and for the conscientious manner in which you have dis- charged the duties assigned to you throughout the year. May I extend to you best wishes for a happy and prosperous future. Sincerely yours, Wl54A1 HOWARD D. MCEACHEN SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
