We have all witnessed the scene of our boys going to the army to fight for this liberty which is so essential to the American people We know that some of these boys have already given their lives and many more will have to It is a difficult Job to smother emotions by hard work and th e thought that it is for us that they are fighting But this we must do Only courage and undying faith and hope can con quer these emotional impulses which are felt by all of us The burden of this war is heavy upon the shoulders of those who are already carrylng more than their full share It is our duty to relieve this condition and do our part to the fullest degree The result of this world conflict vill depend greatly upon what each of us do to further our cause a year before Pearl Harbor. He said that the future world, R V E S T As a parting thought I would like you to share with me the words of Abraham Lincoln that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that govern ment of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the 6Hu1n Alice Mills .fa ufafozy Classmates, dear parents, teachers, school board and friends 'e are met here once more for the annual commence ment exercises of the Sand Creek High School We of the class of 1943 will shortly receive small folders which cer tify that we have satisfactorily completed the prescribed high school course This high school education is our means would be much more difficult to meet Tomorrow will be a new day in our lives A greater one than any of those already past, for we are entering l1fe's school With present conditions as they are we have a very important job to do with a high school education we will be able to meet our problems with more confidence and it will give us a chance to prove that we can begin to help ourselves and bring success What does graduation really mean? It means that we are only a few boys and girls out of millions who are ready to enter life outside of school There are a few who are not graduating because of some misfortune, and so great things will be expected of the privileged few It does not matter what marks we earned What counts is that we have learned to think and study We must consi der our education a means, not an end Only through the unselfish efforts of our parents, friends, teachers and school board have we been able to learn how to meet l1fe's problems They have never fal tered, they have given, each and everyone, an equal share in the expense of our schooling We know that without their guidance we could not have been successful in our activitiea We have had our good times and we have had our troubles By little experiences we have learned that we must have patience and faith We hope that all of your sacrifices for us have been justified This is my opportunity to bid you a hearty welcome to our graduation exercises For each member of the class of '45, I bid you welcome, for we are proud to have you present to witness this great event Jean Richard H A E R ng QQQQ 3 of reaching higher places.

Caroline Butler has found out that Avis is really adopted, but is warned not to mention this, for Avis thlnks that Mrs. Middleford is her real mother. Avis incurs Caroline's enmity, however, when she is admired by Caroline's sweetheart, Bruce Ford, and in a burst of temper Caroline tells the girl about her adoption, thus creating a bad situation all around. How the families are brought back together again, and how Caroline redeems herself, forms the balance of the play. Besides the characters already mentioned, there is the fascinating widow next door, whose son is a pal of Blll's, and who pays too much attention to Mr. Butler to suit Mr. Butler's wife. 18 A HA rn .
