Class of 1929 T lastyou have reached the goal! For four long years you have worked together in the classrooms of East Night looking forward to the time when the rewardiof achievement and success would be yours. The time has come, and with the joy, comes a tinge of sadnesse for it is the parting of the ways. We, who have attempted to guide you, have tried to show you in a kindly way, how and where to obtain all that is vital and good in education as a preparation for your life work, and it is not without regret that we think of your leaving us to start out in various directions to your several places of service. Bear in mind, it does not matter so much what book one studies, what school one attends, what course one pursues,-so long as one develops in the process thetqualities of right living, a sacred regard for the rights of others, and loyalty and devotion to one's country. Let me add-Graduates of East Night, we believe in you. We believe that because of these years of conscientious work, your minds will be keener, your vision broader, your service greater, and your lives richer and fuller. May your Alma Mater be proud of you as she follows you into your chosen place in the world of service. May her prayer,- that no student shall have passed from within her walls without having been made better, more thoughtful, more courageous, and in every way more capable of useful and noble living,+be fulfilled, as she follows you and your future.

Qwr Library HE erstwhile impression of a library was one or several spacious rooms all of l- whose walls were lined with wide ranging shelves containing endless rows of books, the greater portion of which were for perusal by only the contemplative or erudite class. The atmosphere which the entire place presented to the average person was almost formidable and the visits there were few and only when necessity demanded. Since our blissful association with East Night we have discovered the world of meaning embodied in the simple word Book and have learned to appreciate the advantages afforded through the proper utilization of this item. To us, books are the great fact of modern civilization, its finest expression and summation. Books stand for intellectg their source, their method, their reception is in the intellect. Thus, the whole sphere about them being intellectual, they have come to stand for the thing itself, and to imply its possession on the part of all concerned with them. We, the students of East Night High School, fully realize that a library is of fundamental importance not only to the individual but especially to the institutions of learning and we do not hesitate to render, whenever possible, a word of praise in behalf of our splendidly equipped library. We deem it a prominent and indispensable asset to our cherished night school. There are in our collection approximately six thousand volumes all of which, though not the personal property of East Night, are placed at our disposal. Here the eager seeker of knowledge has access to the realms of the starry heavens, the solid earth, the vegetable world, the mineral kingdoms, the chemical domains, morals, ethics, psychology, philosophy, the fine arts, and history. That the students of East Night appreciate and value their library facilities is very evident by the fact that numberless pupils are known to make a practice of spending at least an hour or two in this interesting and beneficial department of the school each evening before the classes are in session. It is edifying that East Night can boast of so many pursuers of treasures which shall prove lasting and of which no one can deprive them. The most outstanding feature of our library program is the annual concession which is offered to each and every student who enters the night school. One evening is set aside that all newcomers may have an opportunity to become familiar with library methods, and a very capable librarian is in charge of this instruction course. For this valuable szrvice and for all the untiring efforts which our librarian, Mrs. McDaniel, has exerted in our behalf we are deeply grateful and cast a vote of thanks. To our beloved Principal, Mr. Schwartz, is also extended our appreciation for having placed at our disposal these aids to further our ideals. It is our sincere wish that the East Night Library shall continue to be a source of inspiration to all the participants in its bounties and shall ever he a happy recollection to those who shall share such joys as ours.
