 J I CLARK JOHNSON DOROTHY RICHARDSON LOUISE ROBERTSON PAUL MICHELET (Treasurer) (Secretary) (Vice-President) (President) EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE: Josephine Kenkel Margaret McLeod Alice Leavitt Fred Wilcox Arthur Winn We, the members of the Junior class, organized on the twentieth of March, 1917. With our organizing has come the realization that we have but one more year at West. This realization necessarily presents to us the question as to what we have accomplished in the past and what we are going to accomplish in the future. We have overcome the trials of our freshman and sophomore years and are now engaged in the third year of our high school work. By means of our organization, we have gained a spirit of sociability and a unity of purpose which is unsurpassed at West High. And with this feeling of loyalty towards our school, we expect to accomplish greater tasks during the coming year. Hi PAUL MICHELET.

JANUARY SENIOR 1918 CHARLES THISS JEANETTE VIVIAN LIEN HARD ELLIOTT DE FOREST (Treasurer) WILLOUGHBY (Secretary) (President) (Vice-President) EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE: Delight Allen Claribel Eustis Elsie Knutson Edwin Krafft Edmund Taylor January classes are liable to be looked upon as a necessary evil. Needless to say, the idea of being an evil is obnoxious, and we hope to prove the falsity of such a supposition. “Necessary” is another word which expresses our desires more correctly. We wish to make our class a necessity to the life of the school. We are trying to be not one of the branches of school activity but the most vital part of it. To establish such a position we must “hang together.” With this spirit of co-operation we can make a record which will be a standard for future classes at West. It is not beyond our power; we can and will make the class of January 1918a complete success. 18 ELLIOTT DcFOREST.
