ELASS UF '42 ---- I congratulate you on your choice of the Spirit of Youth for the theme of this yearbook. We all know that it is the vivid imagination of youth that offers the solution to our problems and that the progress of the World depends upon youth's ambition. We look to the valor of youth to fight our battles and to its industry to perform our labor. The enthusiastic activity and bubbling joy of youth brings us pleasure and its charm brightens all our lives. Since the above qualities of youth are most productive when tempered by the Wisdom that has accumulated through past ages it is Well to use this storehouse of learning as a guide to Bestow thy youth so that thou mayst have comfort to remember it, when it hath forsaken thee, and not sigh and grieve at the account thereof. Whilst thou are young thou wilt think it will never have an end: but behold the longest day hath his evening, and that thou shalt enjoy it but once, that it never returns again: use it therefore as a springtime, which soon departeth and Where- in thou oughtest to plant and sow all provisions for a long and happy life. -G. H. Burns, Prin.
