ABOUT THIS BOOK 7 Wowt We, the senior class, wishing to preserve for the years to come a picture of St. Thomas as it was during our senior year, present the 1939 Kaydet. It is built around the theme Molding of a St. Thomas Cadet” and in- cludes some glimpse into every phase of cadet life. We have striven to be candid and to present all things in their true light, for to us these pictures and these descriptions are more than just that, they are a drama of our senior year. We have tried to make those faces which look out from the page the faces of genuine people as they really are and not just lifeless figures. So if this book is read, not desultorily, but with imag- ination and insight and a sense of humor it may be seen that it is more than just a book, more even than just an account of our senior year; this book is” our senior year.

LIFE a Gadet TODAY Today may be the day of the Easter parade, it may be inspection day, or it may be just an ordinary drill day. No matter what day it is each cadet knows that before it has run its course he will work and play and learn and add something to his sum total of knowledge which will make him a better cadet and a better man.
