FOREWORD To the pupils of Roosevelt school. school life holds much that is embodied and built in the two great fairs of 1939: the Golden Gate International Exposition and the World of Tomorrow. School is a golden gate of opportunity and hope to the great world of tomorrow. Here boys and girls find and build ideals, discover and develop abilities, catch new enthusiasms and interests, learn how to conserve and use strength and energy, and become independent co- operative members of a democratic society. Because they have learned how to use the tools of today, they will contribute much to zestful, vital living in the world of tomorrow. The East Door
