H. S., we feel that it is a book for the whole school. You of the student body who subscribed, you who did things worthy to be written about in this book made it possible. As you, the average reader, glance through these pages, we hope that what is here will seem to you worthy of the school. If we have made this book worthy of the school and have caught the spirit of W. H. S., we have accomplished what we wished. A year book such as this is a radical departure from anything ever tried in this school. We were confronted with enormous obstacles, chief of which was the financial question. The only way we could find out of it was to ask each organization having its picture in the book to pay for it. At this point we faltered, not knowing whether the student body would support us or not. But the various organizations did, and that obstacle was overcome. Next came the subscription drive, where we again were fear¬ ful of the outcome. The first week of the drive was disheartening; likewise, the second. When the day came for the drive to close, we were far behind the necessary goal of four hundred. The only thing to do was to extend the drive another week. But we were skeptical of the outcome. However, again the spirit of the student body tri¬ umphed and we went over the goal by about twenty subscriptions. Thus did the student body make possible this book. Our work as the Owl staff of 1927-28 is over. We have done our best with the year book and the weekly issue in the Reporter. Many of our members will be on the staff again next year. To them and to the many new members we leave our task. It is our hope that they will be even more successful. They may profit by our experience and our mistakes. To them we leave the heritage that every class and every team leaves for the next year, the chance to do better and bigger things.
