Th former students of the Tolleston School are now scattered over all parts of the world doing their part to bring about better conditions for hu- manity The World War is a war for better world condi- tions. but it cannot all be fought in Europe, or Asia, or the Pacific; much of it must be fought on the home front. Do we. who are here, realize the great responsibility before us for adjustment in the chang- ing world? In fact, our problem here, while not nearly as dangerous from the physical viewpoint, is equally as serious as the war front problem. What will it profit America U we conquer the whole world and are not able to build a society to cope with the problems resulting therefrom? Therefore. I appeal to all our students and friends who remain at home to make every attempt to fit ourselves into that program with as much seal and interest as our boys and girls who are entered into the program of the war front. Let us make a special study of the world court, world economic problems, and the world commerce and labor problems. Let us think in terms of the eifect of these problems upon the world and not think at all times of the selfish individual gains to be grasped during this great struggle. The personal gain to the individual soldier on the front is. in many cases, a minus quantity; yet. he goes on and on fighting the battle for future generations. Can we have a broad-minded view of our home prob- lems? Can we think of these problems in terms of our future generations and not always in terms of individual gains in dollars or honor? Then, and only then, can we feel that our boys have not fought in vain! J. W. Standley. ‘Piutcificil cutd %Ci. rfteittcutti. Even before school begins Miss Bessie Kratkoczki is hard at work. Issuing lockers and registering new pupils are just two of the many duties she per- forms. The handling of all school money, the requisitioning of supplies, and the collecting of book rental money are the duties of Mrs. Dorothy Gaski.
