MR. A. W. THURNER Vice-Principal Except for the staggering amount of money being spent at this time for military purposes, education is America's biggest business. It is quite generally accepted, too, that it ought so to be. For the principle is universally accepted that a great democracy, such as ours, can neither be permanently maintained, nor be made to function properly, except in ct country with a well-educated citizenry. ' Where education is deemed to be of such paramount importance it becomes obvious that education must be broad, undergirded by the great principles of freedom and equality laid down in our Declaration of Indepen- dence and in the Constitution of the United States. To these principles We are committed Under God.

DR. W. L. BRAUER Principal The World is fast becoming one community. It should be increasingly clear that only rank conceit can justify the belief that any national group can be wholly superior to any other. History is abundant with the lessons that we cannot turn our backs on efforts at understanding of, and cooperation with, the other peoples of the world. In the education of all of the peoples lies the great strength and force to help us move forward to the necessary mutual understandings for a cooperative world with all its fruits of liberty and peace.
