FCREWORD HAVING X come this X short distance upon the path of knowledge, we fervently hope that there is not one of us who considers himself cducatedg by so doing we insulate our minds against further achievement. A prerequisite of all advancement is willingness to change. Science and philosophy are mutable things, and we must be prepared to change our minds to accept later discoveries, or to reject a commonly accepted theory when it has been logically re- futed. If, in our years at West Night High School, we have learned nothing but to retain an open mind, if we have no other purpose than honestly to Consider all knowledge pre- sented to us, we shall not have wasted our time or studied in vain.

DEDICATION I N LEAVING these portals, we are conscious ofa vast obligation to those we leave behind. To them, and more particularly, to Marion Huber, our principal, we dedicate in farewell the ANNUAL of 1936. That we leave richer in knowledge and trainedto weigh values is, to some extent, a suc- cessful conclusion derived from the mutual endeavor of teacher and pupil. But that we leave here wealthier in the concepts of unselhsh devotion to our fellow men, to duty, and to honor-these we owe more definitely to Mr. Huber. Where we sought a high-school principal, we found a friend and confidant. We suppose a saddened group of disillusioned men will testify that the handling of that disheartened animal, the High School Student, is a soul-consuming task. To them, we can single out a man who achieved in finitely more, the respect and friendship of those he served as assistant prin- cipal, and as principal. Indeed, ours has been the good fortune to know in our last year here a principal who has persistently sought to lessen or remove the barriers that so easily defeat an intimate relationship between his office and the student body. In fact, there really has been no student body. In look- ing back over the past year, it seems that our new principal has carried from his assistancy and intensified that rare attribute of treat- ing each of the vast student body as an individual friend. Never has he been too busy to share the individual problems that troubled us and to dispel them with wise c o u n - sel. 797.,N.
