A t 6a e By participating in a variety of activi¬ ties, we learn many of the fundamentals of the democratic way of life. Never was it so necessary to preserve our democratic way of life. These activities may greatly influence our future vocation, they may test our ability and point to us the course we are cut out to follow. Victory being a nation-wide theme to¬ day, we see our theme entering purpose¬ fully into our play. Today we play, as well as work, with our “Victory” purpose before us.
