MR. G. F. FRANZ Principal, 1921-1931 Mi Dis.-xii S'lUDliN'I'SI A cartoon of the tlay represents an animal, symlwol of one of the inaior political parties, standing in the hulrushes at a river's edge and looking for a lwalwy Moses, who ultimately may leatl it out of the wiltler- ness. The cartoonist might well have gone farther and usetl a more general symhol, one representing each and all of us, for if mankind or any consitlerahle section of it were ever in a wilderness, we are in it now. Confusion is rampant, Our entire political, economic, and social structure has lwecome a forest of uncertainty. The young people are the innocent victims of these circumstances. Pathways that ordinarily led to avenues of aclvaticement appear to he closed. The youth of to-tlay, therefore, more than ever before, has a tloulwle responsibility. If civilization is not to retreat he IULISII meet this challenge. We believe that he Will. You, students of West Night, urge us to this conclusion. Your spirit and courage give promise that you will do your hit antl your energy and enthusiasm are inspiring. Your will to overcome tlifliculties is reassuring. May you continue to glean wisdom from the experience of the ages to guide you. May unseliish purpose direct you. Our prayers for your success and happiness go with you. ,fe 'fffs ff 2'
