We are all Americans living in a great nation which ofers golden opportunities for everyone. People from the farthest reaches of the earth have come to the United States seeking that freedom of advancement which is the heritage of every citizen. Regardless of race, creed, or color, there is no one in this land of thefree, who does not experience a catch in his throat or straighten with pride at the unfurling of the Stars and Stripes. Inbred in each of us is a culture deeper in its implications than that of any single country. We have attained greatness andfar reaching prosperity through the united eforts of many citizens, whether they be English, German, Negro, French, or any other. The traditions of these many groups placed together are a great binding post. Our holidays have been imported from many foreign countries. The language which we speak has borrowedfrom all known dialects and with time becomes a poweiyfulpossession of the people,freedom ringing out in every word. An examination of the subjects taught here in a veritable pillar of democracy show the basis for the many beauties of our land. Music has been called the universal tongue which brings together thejoys and triumphs of many peoples. Foreign languages, together with a learning which can onbf be expressed in the original tongue, are taught without censorship of their guts. Mathematics and Science, The Cultures of the Future, are universal property developed by the combined eforts of the Einsteins, Priestleys, Pasteurs, and Carvers. A student of chemistry could never be an isolationist. .find jinalbf History, the Culture of The Past, is recorded and explained with equal credits given to all nationalities. fit Sullivan in the same classes can be seen students from varied homes and back- grounds, seated together and working toward a common goal. A thirstfor knowledge isfelt by people in every corner of the earth. It is this that makes men brothers, working together for the advancement of all. Passing in review is the everlasting vision of the masses marching forward with knowledge and freedom. To the beauty of our future, with culture as the master link in a brave new world we dedicate the 1946 Navillus.
