Foreword v :■ , wish, fur tlic last time, to thank those people who have in any way contributed to the successful publication of this, the June 1919 Coniniencemcnt of the L.-W.-L. Life. Especially do we wish to thank the members of the faculty; Miss Gabriel, for the great efforts that she has so whole-heartedly put into the art work of this issue; Miss Strachan and Miss Glass for their advice in the literary content, and Mr. lleymann for his judgment and bniadniindedneses in financial matters. To the Staff we can say little. They deserve more than the few words of thanks that we can give. Their work has been most satisfactory. They carried out their assignments willingly and often through sacrifice. Much credit is due the printing and engraving companies for the interest and pride they have taken in their work on this book. Without their professional aid this Life would perhaps not have been up to the standard set by our predecessors. We feel greatly indebted to the Printing firm of the Braden Company for the attention they have given to details in style and composition. To Mr. H. Robert Braden we express our most sincere appreciation for his helpful suggestions and many courtesies. To foreman, Fred Pritchard and pressman, Albert Graham and his crew, do we especially give thanks. Credit is due the Commercial Art Company for the many favors and the excellent service rendered. To Mr. Harry Blatchly, Jr.. Morrison Harris, Harry Lange and Miss Alice Kennedy we are grateful for the numerous heli)ful suggestions, for which we take this occasion to express our hearty appreciation. To Mr. Willard Flint, of the Pacific Coast Paper Company, and to the photographers, Terkelson and Henry, who have given us such substantial aid, do we extend many, many thanks. But let us pass on. Let us express our one great hope — the hope that the heads of the L-W.-L. Life, in years to come, will, on the day they take the oath of office, make, deep down in their hearts, that iron-clad vow, that if they cannot win the honor of publishing the greatest high school journal in this state they will make the fellow ahead break the record. Make him break the record and you will win ! There is no record — there are no limitations. The greatest record ever reached will be the one you make the other fellow break. Before closing we wish to write a few last words in this book that may be bound together with the rest of the records of the class of June, 1919. May you all. as loyal students of Lick-Wilmerding and Lux, ever prove yourselves worthy of that name of Tiger. The greatest ideal of our Student Body is the Tiger Spirit. I ' oUow and uphold that ideal, . lways fight as that splendid beast of the jungle fights — the tiger. The Senior Class is about to go out — out into a great life — into a life far greater than our life at school. The future stands before them, clear against the skyline of hope — stands like a mighty shaft of uncarved granite. The Seniors have their tools in hand, the tools they have sharpened during the four short years spent in high school. The Future is theirs — they can shape it according to the ideals which they love and cherish — the ideals which they have learned to admire- — but the Spirit of the Tiger is the soul of the Future — carve the I ' uture with that ideal — the spirit of that beast — the Tiger Spirit.
