HEN the Community of Minneapolis became a great city with nearly half a million of population, with all the increased facilities for big accomplishment, with all the boards and systems necessary to carry on a gigantic corporation, with all the obligations and duties of a metropolitan municipality, it failed to lose its community character. Today, however, instead of a small, hustling community on the bank of the Mississippi, it is made up of a score or more local centers spread out over many square miles of territory. Each one is a distinct entity, each one has its distinct interests and ambitions, each one is proud of its individuality and its spirit. The public schools have had much to do with this feeling of local pride, and West High is truly proud of its community, its honor, and its glory. The Hesperian, this year, is dedicated to that community which so loyally and so unitedly has stood behind the interests and activities of the school. There is but one note of warning I would sound, one additional responsibility that I would impose, and it is this: In all the pride of community achievement, let us not forget that after all we are only a part of one big city and that we bear the same relation to that city that the several states bear to the national union. Our greatness must contribute to the greatness of Minneapolis or it is not real greatness after all. I am sure we all have this larger conception of our place as a community of communities. Very truly yours. Page 6 l. n. McWhorter.
