mm ,X i l I X, bex XQCIDEA gf' 4 Dawn's Rapture Waking in the early light of morning's dawn, I listened, raptured, to a lonely robin's song. Patches of sky, soft-tinted, rosy, 'mong the leaves, Dissolving shadows fading from the treesg The sound of wavelets creeping on the shore To break and die-alasl to creep no moreg All living things in sweet accord with those above, When slowly, surely, my great liking turned to love. -Dorthea Douglas. Attending the Church of President Coolidge I We arrived at the First Congregational- Church late, as was or usual custom, and found that all the pews were filled. The usher then led us down the long, velvet-carpeted aisle to the front of the church and up the winding stairway that led fromnthe choir loft to the balcony. At the head of these stairs he motioned us to be seated. From our stairway pew we could see all over the church and the most careless observer could not fail to see us. Suddenly I remembered that I had come to church to see the President, so I began at the front of the church and looked at each man. VVhen I reached the-third room, I saw seated on the end a small man with dust colored hair, Whom I recognized to be the President. As I had seen Vice-President Coolidge many times in the Senate Chamber seated in his huge chair, presiding over the Senate, I found that he looke dquite different as the President of the United States, wearing a frock coat and being watched by Secret Service men seated all along the aisle. President Coolidge seemed very restless, for he occupied his time by looking over all the congregation. When his gaze reached the balcony, I felt sure he saw our party, for he looked in our direction. When the congrega- tion sang, Mrs. Coolidge sang as vigorously as anyone else, but the President did not sing at all. A , Our New Oflieers Declare Themselves Horace Bump,' Howard, President: As the ne-wly elected officers of the West High Student Association we pledge ourselves to the fulfilment of all our duties with the greatest diligence and to the best of our ability in a way to reflect credit upon the School. I As for you who have elected us, your re- sponsibility does not now endg it rather begins. Your greatest obligation is to give us a vigor- ous support in every undertaking. Let us work together for the good of the school, and make this year one of its best in every line of student activity. Emma Otto, Vice-President I appreciate the honor of holding the office of vice-president of the Students' Association and, with the co-operation of the student body, I'll do all in my power to make West High a real live school. E Mat Jackson, Secretary It is with all eagerness that I will take up my duties in my new office, and I certainly appreciate the election and will do all that I can to justify your selection. John Coco Grizangio, Cheer Leader VVith yelling help of the student body, I will do my part to give the school the best cheering it ever has had. Letls go! Coco. The Assembly Program In a letter to the Occident a student sug- gests that, if announcements are to receive full attention and consideration, they precede the remainder of the program. The Occident thinks this proposal well worth considering. At a meeting of the Executive Council, Bill Longnecker was elected manager of this year's team. Bill was an assistant of last year, and worked hard for the success of the team, and we wish him all the success in the world on this new job. I

Faragher, Ken Chase, Ken Loysen, Reg Westbrook and-others, too num- erous to mention. wk ak wk Gordon Cowles was the main ballast on the rear extremity of the Manitou Line car he rides on every summer.
