1944 Fordian We Would Be Builders “So nigh is grandeur to our dust, So near is God to man, When Duty whispers low, ‘Thou must,’ The youth replies, T can.’ ” —Emerson We of the class of ’44 have reached a momentary climax in our lives. We arc about to graduate from an institution which has been an integral part of our lives for as long as we can remember. Can we as fearless fledglings step into a bombed and bellowing world to sever the chains of war and to secure the bonds of peace? Our rowers have brought us into great waters, but on every shore we youth have answered the call. On the field of battle our comrades have spilt their precious blood; on the home front we work, buy bonds, and pray; and lastly we essay to fulfill our obligation on the educational front by seeking to know and to better understand the truth which can and must set all men free. Why have we responded to this challenging call to youth? Our patriotism is only the polish on the solid, deeper reason. The patriotic feeling is only a result of a contagious national emotion, but the reason we fight, die, and seek to build burns deeply within our individual souls. This noble reason is the root from which all of our other fighting motives spring. It is for the freedom to know and to do the right that we courageously go forth to answer a call which challenges our physical, mental, and moral qualities. What must we do as we step forth into these challenging waters? Madame Curie has put our duty simply but splendidly when she says, “Youth, take the torch of knowledge and build the palaces of the future.” Some of these palaces arc: a just and lasting peace, international harmony and brotherhood, and for all people an equal chance to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. However, all of our efforts shall ultimately aim in creating a “loftier race” where all men will strive to build the perfect man likened unto Christ. Verna Dick, Editor-in-CUiej. Twelve
