West High School - Hesperian Yearbook (Minneapolis, MN)

 Well school year has its distinctive character; last year was termed a year of achievement; this year I consider more than that—it has been a year of progress. The West Spirit has been more in evidence than ever before. The elements of loyalty and co-operation, in the student body, have been more marked than before. The external indications of this loyalty, such as support of student activities, formation of welfare organizations, establishment of the Student Executive Board, as well as the Pa rent-Teachers’ Association, prove this statement. The fruits of this activity are in large part to be garnered in the future. But the attainment of ideals is always a matter of patience. If the Class of 11115 has but pointed the way for such attainment, it has done its work well. And it is a matter for congratulation that real constructive work has been done, and that there is a body of willing workers to take up the responsibility next September. Let our ideals be lofty. When “West Wins” a victory, let it be one in which we can take pride, let it be worth while. Let us take as the standard ljefore us the words of the apostle: “Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things arc honorable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things arc pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there Ik any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” — 7
