nd ns, -be lu- al- nur nay tO als, ale, ICO GEORGE R. PQWELL, Vice-Principal DEAR SENIORSI Recently one of our seniors presented to me, for my office, a statuette of a Knight in full armor. Fire strikes from its head. I would like to think of it as symbolical of all Knights and Ladies who leave South- east. May each be protected with the Whole armor of God. May the fine character of each be Bred with a determination to Win this War and free the minds of men over the world from the chains of ignorance, hate, greed, and selfishness. May our public schools continue to serve all communities and rid them of the prejudices and influence of any faction, race, creed, or class of men. It is my hope that Southeast students will in this way help to keep open all avenues through which truth may enter the minds of our youth who are to shape the destinies of all mankind for full participation in the abundant life of tomorrow. new fa paaazz ,Q M' W ., 414 If QW? af W Z, W, 4 Q I Q W , f rf ,V 1, f V -XTJWZ, 5 ' WZX ' 1 , , X . www .1 - . , ff i MINNIE Fl.

i l HARRY MCMILLAN, Principal DEAR SENIORS: With mingled feelings of satisfaction and pride in the achievement of the past four years, of regret and sorrow in the inevitable breaking of cherished associations, of disappointment in thwarted peacetime plans, and of bitterness in the call to war made possible because adults failed in their obligation to control would-be aggressors but with patriotic willingness to answer here, each one of you approaches high school gradu- ation and the responsibilities and opportunities of an uncertain future. The war must be won. In this chal- lenge, your immediate responsibilities lie. World peace must be made secure. In this determination, your opportunities begin. Military power and political organization are temporary forces by which our peace-loving nations may postpone conflict with aggressor nations. Be alert, therefore, to the mighty force of world education to improve the thinking of men of all nations to the extent necessary to outlaw war, develop similar ideals, establish better understanding of differences among nations, desire continuous peace and believe it is possible, and measure human and international relations by the Golden Rule. Just as Hitler in a few years developed haters and ruthless killers, it is possible through education to develop lovers of peace. Best wishes to each of you. Sincerely yours, Jfafwa WQWLMM DEA R stril east a df hat+ pre will are
