They're thi idols of our worship, This stuiiay youthful band. They're the cream of all the land- Those Boys of Ours. See the Service Flag a-floatin', With her proud array of stars, The ever-present emblem of those Gallant Boys of Ours. They're the boys of grit and fight, And they're out preservin' right, These soldiers of the U. S.- Boys of Ours. They're a-treaclin' the same paths Of their fathers long agog And they're lackin' not the spirit That their sires were wont to show. They're goin' to do or die- Till they know the reason why, There'll be no stoppin' of the fight For Boys of Ours. Charles Richardson, Mid-Year, l16l M 'sm ff, ,. , eff tv f QW QW '1

EDITGIQLALS A WAR MAGAZINE. It is our unique opportunity and certainly our grave pride to make this issue of the Olive and Gold a war-magazine. We are in the path of a mighty world-movement, we cannot but heed the crash of falling dynasties, the tu- mult of rising peoples, and the bonfire of old empires. Everywhere we look we see vivid war-posters: the words- Conservation, . Liberty Bonds, War Saving Stamps -are upon every tongue: Haunting headlines have ceased to surprise or alarm, big things are happening every day. Consciously or unconsciously we are changing into new beingsg a fine seriousness has come into our livesg we can never be quite the same as we were. Something of all of this has been caught up within the pages of this annual: the dedication of ourselves to the cause of Democracy, the martial note of the art-motif, the spirit of patriotism paramount on every page, the two depart- ments made necessary by the new conditions-Red Cross and Military-all testify to the spirit that animates our school. May this issue of the Olive and Gold carry that spirit over land and sea to our 24l fighting men! ' AN INNOVATION. ln consonnance with the war-spirit, our first executive action was the adop- tion of a permanent cover for the Olive and Gold, the custom of all pro- gressive annuals. The dignity and good taste of the design by Charles Coiner of 'l 7, recommended it as best suited to the purposes of the Olive and Gold. I WAR MEASURES. At the beginning of last semester, it was very problematic whether or not this year the Olive and Gold should be issued. Business men, feeling the pinch of war-times, very naturally hesitated buying advertising spaceg but in the spring, State Street--always loyal to us-responded, and enough ,space was sold to insure the appearance of the annual. I-lowever, the amount falls short of that solicited in former years, necessitating economy and brevity in every department. As a consequence, much excellent material presented for publication in this issue has had to be omitted. i WAR-TIME SACRIFICES. Among the rank and file of American citizenry, the ardor of self-sacrifice has become widespread. Santa Barbara I-ligh School is proud that, impelled by this spirit, the class of I9 l 8 gave up what to them was the crowning glory of their four years in high school-the Senior Play, with all its Hne intimacies, its valuable training, and its rich experiences. Those to whom it meant most tm '
