That dedication is highly appropriate and significant—typical of the trend of thought of Youth over all the world. The United Nations Organization is now meeting—not too united, it is true —but we hope moving closer to a World Friendship that shall outlaw War for all time. With this mingling of all nations in assembly, there must come realization that human characteristics are not racial, but individual; that to attach honor or shame or friendship or disregard on any basis of race or nationality or creed or economic status, or any standard other than the worth of the individual, is unworthy of a citizen of a Free World. Robt. W. Skinner. Board of Education The common school is the greatest discovery ever made by man. —Horace Mann. Sheridan High School is a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools; her graduates are admitted without examination to the leading universities and colleges of the United States. The high standing of Sheridan Schools has been greatly aided by the loyal and efficient service of the Superintendent of Schools and the Board of Education. BOARD OF EDUCATION R. E. Carroll, President Edwin Small, Clerk Max Lowe, Treasurer Geo. D. Johnson Dr. P. M. Schunk Baird Janney OUR PRINCIPAL World Friendship and World Peace—words that are practically synonymous and that we hear everywhere today. Personal friendship prows only from the understanding and the sharing of common problems; so World Friendship must be a result of understanding and appreciating the problems of humanity. May we be successful in this endeavor, for in such success lies the greatest hope for World Peace. S. R. Clark.

The Beginning Girls’ Glee Club and the Boys’ Glee Club are composed of students who have not had any previous vocal training in Sheridan High School. Both of these groups sang at a spring Concert on March 15 and at the Clinic on May 10. After one year of being a member of either of these groups a student is eligible to join either Mixed Chorus or Advanced Girls’ Glee Club. The Mixed Chorus and Girls’ Glee Club presented their annual Christmas Concert on December 21. They also participated in the Spring Concert and the Music Clinic. The Mixed Chorus were presented at the Woman’s Club and in a Sheridan High School Assembly program. The Advanced Girls’ Glee Club also sang at the May Day Fete. Both groups will sing at the Commencement Exercises. The Boys’ Quartette consists of four boys selected from the Mixed Chorus. This year the Quartette is composed of Eddie Brantz, first tenor, Maurice Campbell, second tenor, Gene Johnson, first bass, and Phil Cooley, second bass. Besides appearing at the Music Clinic and the Spring Concert the boys sang at the Newcomers’ Club, Presbyterian Church, Rotary Club, Sheridan High School, P. T. A., Lion’s Club and in various school activities. The Girls’ Sextette is a selected group of six senior girls. Elaine Wallen-gren and Shirley Seid, sopranos, Rose Mary Gillis and Nadine Hoiten, second sopranos, and Nadene Case and Marian Redle, altos, make up the group. The Sextette appeared at many school functions as well as such local organizations as the A.A.U.W., Alpha Kappa Class, Junior Woman’s Club, Taylor P.T.A. and the Presbyterian Church. The Mixed Quartette is a newly oi-ganized group consisting of Meredith Ann Wallace, soprano, Barbara Scott, alto, Eddie Brantz, tenor, and Gene Johnson, bass.

It was produced by special arrangement with the Dramatic Publishing Company of Chicago. “A Little Honey” is the story of a typical American family. Diana’s mother taught her that the way to interest a man was to talk fluently on subjects dear to a man’s heart—baseball, carburetors, the stock market. After trying these methods she tries her own ideas—and a tumultuously funny scene results.

SENIOR PLAY The Senior Play “Spring Green” was presented April 26, 1946, in the high school auditorium. It was produced by special anangement with the French Publishing Co. This play takes place in the Cassell home in Elmwood. Nina Cassell, the charming and youthful mother of two daughters, has turned over a wing of her rambling residence to help the government house the military personnel of a nearby airfield. The officer in charge of the construction, to Nina’s amazement, once lived next door. The younger set is all “a twitter” over the son who was born in New York. However, the absent-minded, gentle son, Newton, who has just been expelled from a fashionable school and who has a passion for the scientific breeding of earthworms, disrupts his father’s romance and barely escapes jail. — 30 — The solution of this major catastrophe together with the unraveling of the problems of the sophisticated “teen agers” of the cast, produces a comedy of youth mingled with genuine understanding of the problems of this group.

You have forgotten? Ah, then you know not The searing truth—that after anesthetic Thoughts of peace—you would again bow dowm To the compromise of Hate—rather than live In sincere friendship with your fellow-man. Remember, child, The few brief months in history When race or religion mattered not—when Man Gave up his life for Man. The deed seemed small In time of war—yet all on earth were partisan. Do not forget That once upon this earth a lowly Shepherd Sacrificed His life—for these eternal ends. “Greater love hath no man than this, That a man lay down his life for his friends.” WORLD FRIENDSHIP “Love thy neighbor,” the great command, Was carelessly cast aside by Man Man thought himself so strong, so great That he could rule the world with hate. With hate he ruled and proudly fought, But soon the love of God he sought, Sought he the love of God and man And faintly he heard “the old command.” “Love thy neighbor,” a strong voice said. “How can I, dear God, I’ve shot them dead. My own dear brothers are lying here.” With this Man shed a bitter tear. “Oh, Man, you have made a great mistake. Never My Power again try to take. Now go ye forth and love your brothers. The black, the white, and all the others.” “The world I gave you as one big home. Go meet your brothers there in Rome, In France, in Italy and Spain, And link together a friendship’s chain.” “Let all the world be as united brothers, Work, learn, and pray with all the others; Respect each country and its king, And let ‘World Friendship’ forever ring.” —Rose Mary Gillis. —Katherine Payton. — 33 — Awards SCHOLARSHIPS GIVEN CLASS DAY—MAY 28, 1945.
