Western Military Academy - Recall Yearbook (Alton, IL)

The Class of 1931 This is our Commencement season. I he name is fittingly chosen for it marks not so much the end of a period as it does the beginning of another. In many ways life will be different, but its principles will be much the same. In the new life the experiences of the old will be repeated on a larger scale and amidst new surroundings. We shall continue to learn there, as here, from books and instructors, from friends and companions. We shall have decisions to make, principles to abide by or to ignore: the same lessons of obedience, loyalty and co-operation to learn and practice. In the new life we shall succeed or fail as we have here, just to the degree in which we are loyal to truth, industry and honor. OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Sergeant -at -Arms - Arthur Schneithorst - Antonio Costa George Bofinger William M. Byram Seventeen
