ADMINISTRATIO SUPERINTENDENT A. W. GLAD CoNcHATULAT1oNs, Srzmons The role ol education is important in the midst of war and particularly important after the war. The present world conflict is more than a battle between nations. It is also a conflict between ideas. The rising emphasis on the lll'lllUC!'2:lllC method of participation by all the people in determining the direction of social policy makes uni- versal education mandatory. Even though this yt-ar's class is graduating at a time when it seems that educational opportunities are curtailed. the challenge for real service is greater than ever before, I trust that your educational carcer in Pratt has helped to prepare you to accept that challenge. May l congratulate you upon your achieve- ment and wish you well in whatever your undertaking. H. B. llivnnn, Dean Page Four GRADUATES or THE PRATT ScHooLs You have the honor to belong to a generation when the human race is passing through one of its greatest crises. Youth is called to carry on the work of righteous- ness, of love, of courage, of patience. and of loyalty. In years to come when you look back upon the commence- ment of 1944-, let it be clear that you responded to the call however you could. Exciting, colorful, even spectacular lies the road ahead. It is not easy but it is something big enough to give one's life for. Amos W. GLAD DEAN H. B. UNRUH
