ll GEORGE IIELCI IER Greetings from Superintendent of Schools to Westport High School Students: The many changes that have occurred in the economic, social, political and in- dustrial world in the past few years have produced a state of confusion. So many social and economic injustices have oc- curred that rnany persons have had their faith in democracy and justice shaken. 1 zlendenl of .Schools There has always been and there always will be in the world a certain ele- ment of chance or luck. l-lowever, let no one deceive himself by believing that human success depends wholly upon luck. No idea could be farther from the truth. The principles which operate in the field of human relation- ships are as certain and dependable as are the principles which operate in the physical world. Success in life does not depend chiefly upon luck but upon readiness to meet opportunity when it comes. Read the lives of such men as lacob Riis and Edward K. Bok to learn the value of industry, honesty, and devotion to duty. Noble character and high ideals are the leading factors in determining human success. May Westport students prepare themselves so that they will be ready when opportunity comes. fl0l

I l MR. D. H. HoLl.owAY At this time, it is fitting to give recog- nition to those who have aided in bringing to a successful close another school year. Therefore, it is my desire to express my thanks and appreciation to the Principal, the Faculty, the various student clubs and organizations, the student body as a whole, and to all others who have been instrumental in bringing about this desir- able end. To those who are leaving Westport l extend my best wishes for success and contentment in their new endeavorsg to those who shall return I commend the noble traditions of the school we honor and revere. We are greatly pleased with the scholas- tic achievements of members of the class of 1935. High scholarship is extremely important. We are even more pleased that mem- bers of the class have maintained a uni- formly high standard of citizenship, serv- ice, and character. Long after we have forgotten mere scholastic success and extra-curricular achievement we shall remember with pride the superior manhood and womanhood of our graduating seniors. 11 MR. N. B. MILLER, JR.
