yzfrcword As we go forward in a world struggling for peace, our responsibilities as teachers are greater than ever. We face the task of building a lasting peace, a peace which will provide opportunity for the fullest expression of life to all people. Once having won this peace, we will retain it through education. Looking into the future, we see the need of creating in the child of today an appreciation and understanding of the interdepend- ence of all nations and the greatness of all peoples. Lessons must be learned from the mistakes of the past. We, as educated people, must pass on our best to succeeding generations. By teaching the value and importance of good citizenship and by living up to our demo- cratic principles, we can help to prepare future generations to go onward toward the democratic ideal. Farmington State Teachers College has provided for us effective instruction and guidance and participation in democratic ways of living and thinking. Because of these experiences we feel better prepared to instruct children in the values of our national democracy. In this first edition of Ejjbrfero, we are trying to show the progress of the college and to set forth its ideals,which we, as future teachers and citizens, hope to build into the youth of tomorrow.
