Greetings to the Class of 1944 Your three years of high school life have been un- usual because our country has been at war. Social functions have been curtailed; many of your school- mates have left to enter industry or military service; you have been called upon to meet many new situa- tions. You have met your responsibilities on the home front in war bond drives, scrap collections, pre- induction courses, and in many other ways. Vi e are pleased that you have carried on your school activities and class room work in a cheerful and successful man- ner. The Board of Education joins me in expressing appreciation for your earnest effort in behalf of the school and we take this opportunity to extend our con- gratulations to you. Hobson C. Wagner. Superintendent Since 1607, millions of Europeans have left their homes and friends to come to America. My ancestors and your ancestors came here to secure freedom from economic, political, and religious dictatorships. A quarter of a century ago, these freedom-loving people returned to Europe to fight in order that the “world might be made safe for democracy.” At the end of World War I, they returned home and decided to remain “out of European Entanglements.” Now we are engaged again on foreign fronts. Shall we, after this war, return again to “Normalcy” and to “Isolationism”? The youth of America, graduating from High Schools everywhere, will not only do their bit on tbe military front and on the home front, but will have a tremendous responsibility in helping to determine America’s position in tbe post-war world. Wallace S. Brey, Principal [9]
