This year, probably more than any year in the history of our country, there is a vase need for trained men in the field of agriculture. The American farmer is playing one of the most important roles in this World War II. Food is needed not only for the war front, but also the home front. The larder of plenty, which the U. S. has ab ways been noted for, is fast being depleted. It is the problem of these young men, and the millions of other farmers, to replenish this larder, using their knowledge of science which their training and experience has given them. Trained men in various fields, these students are facing the world with one of the best chances for the development of all and everything in the field of agriculture. e re ( 23 j)®) 5

Specials LEFT TO RIGHT: Morton, Jones, Ackerman, MclanUcr, Stall I man. On the first of November, there were five of us who entered State Institute as Special Students. At our lirst meeting we elected officers for the year as follows: President, Edward Morton, from Castleton; vice-president, Ray Melandcr, from Balston Spa; secretary, Edgar Ackerman, from Pcckskill; and treasurer, Donald Stahlman, from Castleton. The class chose Mr. Vaughn for a class advisor. During the year, our class was noted for dishwashing, as Don did pots and pans, Tom Jones and Ed. Ackerman took care of the dishes. After three months Ed. Morton was called from school to serve in Uncle Sam's Armed Forces. Ed. Ackerman left after four months to work on a dairy farm near Red Hook. Our course was completed at the first of April with a commencement in the assembly. Certificates were presented by Mr. Day to all who completed the course. As we pass on we wish to thank the faculty for their help in classes and on the outside; the students for their aid and the good times which we have had here at school. We will always remember the days at Suite Institute and the friends we have made. We wish to thank Mr. Vaughn for his interest in our class and his help in making it such a successful one throughout the year. 24
