enior Memoirs FOREWORD Through the halls of the Alma Mater ring the last goodbyes of the Class of 1940. There is a catch in many throats, for Parting is such sweet sorrow. The Class of 1940 is leaving this school, never to enter it again. Its members will meet each other in various ways through life, but the class is disbanding and will never be the same, no matter how many reunions are held. All that is left is SENIOR Mamoms-1940 g we can, at least, live up to the memory. Our theme this year is Liberty, and well may we be desirous of living up to that, for we are the ones who will be making the big- gest sacrifices if anything other than Liberty ever invades our con- tinent. So, ever with eager hope and willing hands to pioneer in a new order of li-fe for the world, with a tear in our eyes as we look back on associations now past, the Class of 1940 dissolves, leaving only its memory in the pages of this book.
