fffi Nflllff WlllXXXlll 7.1-.XXX Ac1'mz'nz'stratz'on 5? Western High School, as depicted on the school seal, is supported, togeth- er with Education, by three pillars, Knowledge and Progress being the names of two, while the third remains unmarked. Perhaps the artist, for the sake of symmetry or balance in his design, purposely omitted the name. Whatever his intention, the omission is our opportunity. In stating in a few words what Western High School stands for we shall make no mistake in accepting Education supported by Knowledge and Progress. But out of the many names that suggest themselves, what shall we select for the third column? We believe that Education should equip for living, that Knowledge with- out independent action is vain, and that Progress cannot be made without orig- inality in thought. This idea is sustained by Knowledge, Progress, and ln- itiative. Seventeen

XXL.-Elwlml WHISSXXHJEAXX As the class of 1931 leaves the halls of Western I am wondering-what has it given to us, and also that which is probably more im- portant, what have we fthe facultyj given to 1931. Dur- ing their sojourn of four years with us, have the mem- bers of our S e n i o r Class learned to establish habits and principles of living which will conserve and i m p r o v e their health: have they ac- quired habits of hard intel- lectual work which will help them through college and their after life: have they learned to play, that is, to be released from the mental or physical activity that is or may be their daily grindg have they learned to love the good and the beautiful in art, in music, in nature and in life? 'R QTEMMQ- To you graduates in June, 1931, comes the distinction of constituting the largest class in the history of the Western High School. With this distinction comes, however, the necessity 4? of stressing the age-old argu- ment quantity and qual- ity, We feel sure that later on we shall be able to point with pride to the many of you who, despite crowded conditions, maintained a high degree of excellence in your class work and at the same time were participating citi- zens in a Well-rounded school life. Good luck to you! tl, 1 Eighteen
