ONLY a few days and there will be no further need of presenting on this platform the customary alibis that prevail in “our polite society.” However, on this same platform, rich in associations of jazz and jest—shall it be “a la corsage or arms? —you will receive your official dismissal from these walls that have separated you from the world you have been longing to be a part of. Will there be much difference without from what it was within? Shall you be able to live any more happily with yourselves for the rest of your lives or l»e letter able to contribute to the happiness of the whole from your experience in this senior advisory? When you release your energy, brain power and heart to solve the problems that confront you as a unit of the whole outside the walls, may the same fine spirit of co-operation, fair play, and following the rules of the game which you have exhibited within bear abundant fruit. A MAX DA St-NDKAN. Freshmen conic and seniors go. But we teach on forever. Because the above i true, our parting words have alxnit the same ring year after year. Xot that we love you less but because the hope that we cherish for every generation of seniors does not vary a great deal. That you will be honest, kind, purposeful, that you will be alive to the sweetness as well as the bitterness of life, that time shall but serve to make you more keenly conscious of your responsibility to yourself and to your fellow men is the hope that we have for you and every generation of seniors who pass out from the portals of West High School. Sincerely. Ciiari.es R. Richardson. 11
