FORE Browsing through the yellowing pages of old West Night annuals is both a revealing and a rewarding experience. One encounters the names of people of prominence and eminence, not only in our own community, but in far-away places as well. One sees the faces of young and eager students engaged in activities which sat- isfy their thirst for knowledge, and afford them opportunities for self-expression that lead to suc- cess in life. One is also made acutely aware of a unique feature of night school. For among the young faces there are the faces of many who are not so young, but despite their age they are still young in spirit, eager for knowledge, will- ing to forego the well-earned comforts of home and leisure, and to accept in their stead the ORD hard discipline of regular attendance in classes, and the harder discipline of relentless, system- atic study. There are also the faces of teachers and administrators whose dedicated services have, for more than fifty years, guided the school and inspired the students. lt was one of these browsing expeditions which brought to light the theme of this the 1954 Echo. In 1935, on the occasion of the celebration of the 30th. anniversary of the founding of the Echo, E. W. Wilkinson, a for- mer principal of West Night, ended his message to the students with these words: My experi- ence with night school students prompts me to the conclusion that THE NIGHT BRINGS FORTH THE STARS .
