THE FACULTY The all-too-familiar strains of Your homework is not in , and Take two demerits have long since been drowned out by the battle cries of Put out that light—this is a blackout! and Ration¬ ing lines form on the left. Yes, the faculty have come mightily to the aid of our total war effort by carrying more than their share of Civilian Defense activities. They offer us knowledge by day; they mete out our gasoline, fuel oil, shoes, clothes, sugar, and processed foods by night. Cheerfully and conscientiously they have fallen in step with the war workers and fighting men of this great nation. Thus we are proud to present Hartford ' s air-raid wardens, Hartford ' s F irst Aiders, Hartford ' s airplane spotters, Hartford ' s rationers—our teachers. 11
