Education in artime REAL PERMANENT VALUES in educational training are being dimmed or blotted out by the concentrated all-out war effort which is necessary for the successful ter- mination of the present conflict. This is particularly true in the field of our secondary education where the high school youth is confronted with three definite temptations or demands to leave school. First, the great scarcity of labor on our farms, industry and business is demand- ing ever-increasing workers which are being recruited from our high schools. Enlistment, selective service inductions, and transfer of labor from the farm to defense plants has produced a scarcity and a need for labor as never before. The high school youth must stop and analyze this problem in order to find where he may best serve. In cases where the father or mother has gone from the farm into defense industries, the older boys and girls must shoulder the work on the farm and in the home. The state government has recognized this and permitted absences of 30 days during the school year in periods not to exceed 15 days without loss of state aid to the local district. Boys and girls should observe this ruling and keep up their school work while absent so that their educational training will not be interrupted or hindered. This cooperation in the production of vital food supplies can be accomplished without severely interfering with the high school student's educational program. Sacrifice of time before and after school and during non-school days will be required, with each member of the family group doing his or her part. Second, industry is offering a monetary remuneration far in excess of any form of wage rates since the first Wo1'ld War. Young people must realize that work in these industries purely because of the money returns should be analyzed in the light of future educational values. Readjustment and unemployment will follow the war with the inevitable results that the young people who have completed their education will hold a strategic position in the readjusted labor demand. Third, here exists an uncertainty in the minds of the youth as to what the future holds for them in civilian or military life. Many of the boys in the service from the Sauquoit Valley have found that their high school training has placed them in a position to select their type of service and secure more rapid promotion in our armed forces. Governmental agencies are urging young mn and women to finish school. They are offering such inducements as enlistment in our naval reserve with deferred duty while the boy completes his Navy Department accepted pre-induction training during his first two college years. The completion of this training leads to a commission in our naval reserve. We must keep faith with those people from all parts of our nation, and par- ticularly those of the Sauquoit Valley, who are now serving in our military forces. The Sauquoit Valley is strongly represented in all branches of military service. We have taken our loss at Pearl Harbor, we have had our boys come through on the Kearney and the Marblehead. These boys have brought credit and pride to our Sauquoit Valley. The least that the secondary students in our valley can do is to complete each high school subject and year with success due to exertion of every effort and improvement of every opportunity. Students of the Sauquoit Valley Central School: analyze your efforts, improve your time, offer your services in non-school hours wherever needed, and sacrifice personal pleasures in order to invest your money in war stamps and bonds for the early and successful termina- tion of our military campaign in a complete victory.
