' It’s been some parade, what

"Back in ’66 were the days! Young j
ladies sure had fun dabbling in the .
water. Swimming? Oh, .some of !

cale suits were a bit cumbersome—; j
they weighed 75 pounds when wet— ;
and then, too, their frilly bathing ]
hats weren't at all waterproof!” j

trimmings. Active swimming

" ’Twas 1916, or thereabouts, that
women donned real knit swim suits.
'And what pace setters those models
were—gone were the sleeves, the
high necklines . . . and the skirts
actually ended above the knees."

Class of’4l
A changed and startled world faces the graduate of 1941. Youths
now completing their scholastic careers find themselves a bit
closer to the “top of the world” than their fellows of the past
few years.
For while it’s a tense, torn world . . . the very elements that
have given it tenseness and that have ripped it apart are re
sponsible for giving this class of 1941 many of its opportunities.
First, long periods of unemployment do not immediately face
the graduate. For actual jobs are to be found in defense and al
lied industries. There is the career military, the skilled trade
and general upswing in employment to welcome the newcomer.
That’s the big thing most graduates of recent years have had to
worry about . . finding jobs. Now the jobs are here. Men
Wanted . Women Wanted ... Help Wanted. And getting these
jobs, graduates find themselves a bit further up the proverbial
ladder that leads fas the artist’s conception here shoivs it) to the
“fop” and to “success.”
Then, too, the very discouraging aspect of civilization, 1941
style, with its wars, its aggressions and its unholy thirst for
power on the part of some nations and individuals, offers to the
graduates a challenge. A challenge to do great good, to repair
devastated lands and to build anew.
So, graduates of *4l ... find work for your hands ih helping to
shape a new America; a new democracy and a new world; and
find work for your heart in the supreme effort to restore high
human ideals.
Thus will the “top of the world” be reached, and thus will
“ Success” mark your path.

can be certain "something worth
while for the people will be ac

time and wrangle, no, I will not call
a special session," Osborn told the

settle down to do something worth
while, I will consider issuing a call.
"I always say that I may or want
to call a special session,” the gov

I would call one."
