We’ll sing her praises; We’ll ever be true. We’ll follow where her footsteps guide us To always love and honor her name; To newer heights we’ll raise her fame. Through the years, Her standards ’ere beside us. All hail, the green and gray, The class of thirty-nine! Long may thy name Live through the years And may all praise be thine. 12 Se+iiosi Glate, OfjjjiceAA President Rvland A. Robinson Vice-President Frances E. Smedeey Boys Treasurer Howard R.

Coppock Second Class Member Anne Peck Faculty Adviser Elma Clark The government of the Girls’ End is one in which the students elect their own representatives, who, with the assistance of the Dean of Girls, attempt to regulate the school conduct and deal with the problems which arise among the girls. However the work of this body extends not only along these lines but it also aims to promote student interests and needs, as well as to give the girls a feeling of individual responsibility. 48 I I feoyi' Studesit Gousicil President Leonard C. Thompson Chief Proctor Paul M. Cope Senior Member Harold K. Wright Second Class Members George H. Buzby Winslow Councill Secretary Lawrence A. Yearslhy Chief Inspector Robert C. Carey First Class Member Charles F. Booth Faculty Adviser Frederick W. Swan 'I'he aim of the Boys’ Student Council this year was to bring about a co- operative spirit among the boys and to assume the leadership in school activities as well as to dispense justice for misdemeanors. The council has attempted to be fair and just in its treatment of infractions of the regulations, and has encouraged those who have felt unjustly accused to bring cases before the council for discussion. Activities included the nomina- tion of committees and delegations, management of the Christmas program and project, changing proctors and inspectors and attending to the welfare of the Boys’ End as much as possible. And it is felt this year the council has been a moving force at Boys’ End. 49 t 7 Qn uut G ut 'hJlute fcaasvdt Editor-m-Chief Christopher J. Cadbury Assistant Editor Elizabeth j.

Through varied activities club members become more familiar with the French language and customs. Besides lectures, French games and songs, some piece of popular French drama is enacted. The club is a grand source of fun and entertainment as well as being educational. GERMAN CLUB President Tom Sherwood Girls’ Treasurer Vice President Secretary Boys’ Treasurer Pat Beadling Ryland Robinson Mary E. Farr Fred Balderston The German Club has had programs ranging from an elocution contest to ‘‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”, which was given in German at Christmas time. We have learned a little about the lives and customs of the German people from the interesting stories of Ruth and Lou Flaccus and also Jim Cope, all of whom were in Germany last summer. Each meeting is begun with the singing of German folk songs and ended with the serving of refreshments, in both of which the group joins heartily. LATIN CLUB Consuls Praetors Scriba Helena Emerson Betsy Mason Sara Kratz Larry Thompson Mather Lippincott Outside lectures, slides and various games have made interesting programs for the Latin Club this year. An open meeting was held so that all could enjoy tine slides of Italy. An annual camp supper ended the season with high hopes for another enthusiastic membership. Tom and Nan Brown, as well as Larry and Bunny, are mainly responsible for the club’s success. 57 ART CLUB President Arthur Thorp Boys’ Treasurer Lloyd Swift Secretary Edith Rhoads Girls’ Treasurer Joan Sangree This year the meetings of the Art Club were held mostly in the South Room since the membership has increased considerably since last year. A variety of interesting talks on art were given, one, a demonstration of lithography and others on Italian masters and Japanese art. At the end of the year a picnic was held at the Lake. PIANO CLUB President Secretary Elizabeth Mason Anna Winslow Treasurer Margaret Walker Piano Club should be called “Music Lovers’ Club”, for being a member doesn t require proficiency at the piano. However, local talent is encouraged and enjoyed by fellow members. At the meetings some phase of music is discussed and illustrated through a pianoforte performance, whether by outside musicians, teachers, or students. PEACE SOCIETY Co-Cliairmen Faculty Advisers Helen Louise Brown Nan Brown Harold Wright Thomas S.

For Delta, the girls society, a scholastic average of 80 for the two preceding semesters is required, and a number of points for activities in sports, student government, etc. To be admitted to Triangle for the boys, a 75 average is necessary, and the number of points required becomes less if the average is higher. These require- ments make a very select group which is expected to carry on the high standards. 59 Standing: Mary Elizabeth Farr, Margaret Walker, Ruth Lockwood, Constance Dewees, Margaret Taylor, Phyllis Kaighn, Margaret Welsh, Frances Turner, Sarah Webster.

With what mingled emotions we look back to the day when we entrusted you to Westtown's care. Could this foster mother be wise enough and patient enough to mold you to the stature of our hopes? We know now from your letters, and from intimate talks at vacation times, that Westtown has brought you what we, as parents, could not have given you for all our devotion. In your faces we discern purposefulness that gives promise for the future. Like all schools, Westtown has taught you the usual branches of learning, but it has given you two things which are peculiarly Westtown's own to give. It has taught you the beauty of service, and given you an awareness of those inner resources which, cherished and cultivated, will develop life spiritually, mentally and physically. Hold fast the ideals that these Westtown years have brought. So shall our hopes be fulfilled, and Westtown's strength renewed!
