FOREWORD To record successfully the happenings of such a year as the 1946-47 passage of time, one would need the pages of a modern best seller. The editor of such a book would need to be a photographer with out- standing ability, a typist of court-reporters ' speed and a foreteller of no mean ability. We have however tried to catch within this book the feeling of a tremendous change that has so characterized this year. Even before the school year opened we felt the change as we read about teachers ' salaries and the need for more teachers. Then as the year progressed and we went to practice teaching, these head- lines in paper and other sources became a reality. We are graduating at a time of many wonderful teaching opportunities. As we look back and see the existence of the past years, we wonder how so much could have happened in such a short time. It would be an impossible task to relate all the times in our limited edition. In our own memoirs, however, we can recall the peace that ended the War of all wars and the sunny peaceful and wonderful opportunities awaiting us in our career as teachers. Looking back on the publication of the book we see the hours spent in consulting printers, photographers, the hours of planning what to do with what pages, the days of picture taking, the mo- ments of excitements over receiving proofs, the assembling of snaps and lastly the sign of relief when the sections went to press. Nowwe are looking forward to the days ahead in our own profession and wonder if we can remember how to roller skate. Administration
