WELLESLEY HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL FOREWORD The Year Book was conceived as a clever scheme to overcome financial difficulties and to present something out of the ordinary to the student body, but under the hands of its creators it became an ideal, an ideal by which they would make their creation a fitting memento of High School days. The publication is issued by the Monitor staff under the auspices of the Senior Class. It is a gift from the class of 1931. The Year Book owes much of its completeness to donations of money from the Senior Class. Congealed in print, the memories of a High School year look out from its pages. Not only cold facts but happy humor are found between its covers. When you’ve grown a big moustache, and have fin¬ ished a hard day of street artistry, wife tells you to clean the attic. You climb the shaky stairs and find under your father-in-law’s picture (whose frame might bring something at the hock-shop) this Year Book. You call, “Come here, Adolf, Alphonso, Benito, Franz-Josef, Gari¬ baldi, Victor Emmanuel, and Wilhelmina. Look and see and behold. Model yourselves after yon shining example.” Or, when you have become staid (not to say stodgy) middle-aged citizens and you happen to stumble upon a copy of this book, you will dust its well-worn cover and turn its yellowed pages with pleasure and a reminiscent smile and say, “Them was the happy days.” Alvin von Auw, ’33.
