WHS -A yCUssa £ to tbe (Blrls By Miss Jessie Caplin WEST MI ST BE BEST Miss Jessie Caplin, Dean of Girls This phrase is a slogan, which may be lx th an opportunity and an excuse. It gives an opportunity for leadership, and an excuse for work which can make West a wonderful school for your smaller sister to come to. Leadership means that when you start to do something which should be done, you can get others to help you. Is it in your power to influence others? Will you use this influence for the good of the school? West must be best. Work means doing a thing which has to be done, even after you are tired. Work means “keeping at it till the goal is reached. Will you volunteer? West must be best. You know what West really is; others judge the school by what they sec. Your appearance, your manners, your standards of honor, your actions and your conversation make or mar the reputation of the school. Are you fair ? Are you reliable? West must be best. The slogan calls for ambition and persistence. 1 lave you these characteristics? Will you give interest, effort, loyalty and co-operation? West must be best. For my girls I want progress—progress which constantly lifts your personal standards to a higher level, strengthening your character, as physical lifting strengthens the muscles. Girls, what do you want? Do you always stop to think what is right and what is wrong? Do you take account of what will hinder, what will help? Are you all going forward? Then, West will be best. Yours sincerely. Jessie F. Caplin. Page nineteen
