FOTBQWOTCIIO We Smale few Www! Amidst all the din and fury and sacrifices of a devastating War with forces of evil that threaten to black out all that We hold dearer than life itself-freedom, justice, honor, truth, kindness, sanctity of human life, and the rights of the individual, We glimpse the glorious light of VICTORY. VICTORY of our AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE! VICTORY of the DEMOCRACIES! VICTORY for all the UN- HAPPY RACES OF EUROPE enslaved by tyranny of Axis domi- nation! VICTORY for a JUST AND ENDURING WORLD PEACE! And it will be VICTORY if every one of us does his part. We, the students of the Webb City High School, have girdcd ourselves for VICTORY in this mighty battle, which We can help Win from the HOME FRONT. WE ARE BUYING WAR STAMPS AND BONDS this year as in the past year through our home rooms. The total sales so far have amounted to approximately 37,525.29 fstudents, S4,548.79g teachers, 3S2,976.50J. By BUYING WAR STAMPS AND BONDS, We hope TO HIT THEM HARD, HIT THEM FAST, WIN THE PEACE, AND MAKE IT LAST. WE HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE JUNIOR RED CROSS not only in cash, but in service-making afghans and sewing kits for Soldiers. Also several of our YOUNG MEN HAVE BEEN DONORS TO ,THE BLOOD BANK. WE HAVE PILED UP THE SCRAP METAL AND RUBBER in a great drive which really cleaned up the town-and WE HAVE SALVAGED OTHER THINGS. OUR AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN STUDY- ING WAYS AND MEANS to increase the food supply for our armed forces, our allies, and our civilians-not merely STUDYING, but DOING. OUR HEALTH PROGRAM HAS BEEN INTENSIFIED especially in the PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND HOME ECO- NOMIC CLASSES. We need to build strong bodies for VIC.TORY, NOW AND IN THE FUTURE. The HOME ECONOMIC Classes have been studying VICTORY DIETS and FOOD RATIONING. Recently a MILK PROGRAM, furnishing milk to students-partly with government aid, has been successfully carried out. OUR SCHOOL BOY PATROL has put forth every effort for SAFETY. CONSERVATION OF LIFE AND LIMBS must ever be a part of our VICTORY PROGRAM. OUR SPEECH DEPARTMENT has given programs at assem- bly on HEMISPHERE SOLIDARITY, and on OUR FLAG, our NATIONAL ANTHEM, OUR CONSTITUTION, OUR ALLIESg dramas such as THEY BURNED THE BOOKS by Stephen Vincent
