It brought an end to a bloody and horrible era of history. World War II proved that the American educational system is highly effective in developing human beings. The manner in which the product of our American schools performed during the war should remove any doubt as to the quality of Young America. The soldiers of no other nation exhibited such effective teamwork. Their ability to use highly complicated mechanical equipment of all kinds was superb. No other soldiers were more adaptable to widely varying weather conditions or demonstrated greater courage or sheer physical stamina than ours. Their understanding of the issues at stake and their high determination to bring those issues to such a conclusion as would preserve our American way of life were most significant. The battle flags have been furled. Our men in uniform are coming home, having finished the gigantic job which they set for themselves. Peace is the order of the day. But peace brings us many new problems. These problems challenge the best thought of the civilized nations. Their solution requires intellectual, moral and spiritual leadership. To this leadership it is our hope that your training has made a worthy contribution. To this end may you find inspiration and guidance in the following lines written by Longfellow 1 Were half the power that hlls the world with lerror, Were half the wealth bestowed on camps and courts, Given to redeem the human mind from error, There were no need of arsenals or forts. THE WILLIAMSPORT SCHOOL BOARD. 15
