NORTH HIGH SCHOOL Foreword Another year's history at North High joins the twenty-eight gone before, and all things considered, is the record of one of the best years experienced by this school. The serious days and months of the great world war have caused a certain unrest and lack of concentration of effort, yet the spirit of loyalty to school, city, and country will, in future years, no doubt, develop into greater individual good than more definite academic work would have accomplished. The North High has continued previous special activities, and in addition undertaken many new ones, especially those connected with the war. The school is especially proud of the three hundred or more loyal graduates and under-graduates who have entered their country's service. The January Class of this year, from the proceeds of their remarkably successful memorial entertainment, gave liberally to their country’s call for money. No doubt the June Class will do equally well. To all interested in North High and to friends who may read these pages, 1 wish to extend my most sincere wish for their success in all that makes for true happiness and accomplishment, 'flic loyalty of the alumni of this school has been a far greater inspiration than they can realize. A true realization of what is meant by loyalty is especially needed at this time. If the classes graduating from this school allow the Golden Rule to stand for their ideal of loyalty to individual, city, state or country, they cannot fail to accomplish most for themselves, as well as for others. It is my sincere wish that this year’s Polaris may bean index of continued increasing honors and accomplishments for the Class of l‘MK. as the years may come and go. Very sincerely. Because this year is one of war, conservation, and preparedness, the question arose as to whether or not it would be fitting for North to sacrifice her nineteen eighteen year book. The boys, though, representing North in the great World War. settled the question for us. We felt that they would like to know what wc are doing at home, so we took this opportunity of letting them know. They are the ones of whom North is extremely proud, and they are the ones who have been our inspiration. Accordingly, they have been given particular mention and this issue has been made a patriotic number. We hope that this little book will cheer them and bring them happy thoughts of their school days at dear old North. Will von accept our memory book with a good will, and overlook anything said amiss? We wish to take this opportunity of expressing our appreciation to teachers and students who have assisted us in our effort. Respectfully yours. The Editors. S
