AMERICA WORKING Stirring music, dramatic poetry, vivid painting: all have been inspired by the whirl and bustle of cities teeming with workers. The work of the world goes on day by day as new vistas of unlimited horizons are opened to eager minds .... Perhaps the work we do in school-study and write, read and recite - is not wholly unlike that of the laborer. Although we have not stepped across the threshold to a work-a- day life, we yet glory in being able to ac- complish a given task. We recognize the worth of freedom of opportunity for every- one, everywhere. And by choosing the sub- jects we want and working under teachers' guidance, not rule, we feel democracy working. The grip of the hand on a wrench, the swift, sure touch of the typist, the sen- sitive press of the doctoris lingers -these are the skills with which we are preparing to fill our places in a working world. We stand ready, too, to remove any barrier of oppression which obstructs our entrance into that vivid life across the threshold. vl V 'I in llll 'lg' Q L ' S A , e- Q' ' ' I, l:l , l ...ravi fi M1 si fl 4

Such men considered it a prize to get one of Miss Schoenig,s graduatesf, f2?

Constant, eager strides toward the goal of perfect teaching, and encouraging hands extended to those in need of help are gifts not forgotten. To develop the opportunities for service in new fields, these members have relinquished their homes, their dear ones, and students for whom they harbored a fond hope.
