    1937 "W Est-O-Ranger.” FOREWORD

    DEDICATION Patience and kindness have won for you the admiration of your pupils, for through your tireless efforts you have made light to fall upon a sphere of science before shrouded and obscure to many of them. Not through words but through yourself have you set before them the true meaning of "the scientific attitude of mind.” Your cooperative spirit in our activities has also gained for you the esteem of all seniors. That we may show our appreciation we dedicate to you, Mr. Taylor, the 1937 "W est-O-Ranger.” FOREWORD The colors have dried on the canvas; the sketcher has folded his easel; the scribe has put away his pen. It is finished— the West-O-Ranger, the picture of our high school days w ith their joys and troubles, their conquests and v ic ­ tories. And in compiling this book of pleasant memories through whose pages in the far-distant future we shall relive the happy days of our care-free youth, we have honored an old friend of our childhood, Mother Goose, one whom we hope may live forever in the hearts of youth in spite of the present adverse criticism of disconcerting college professors. — Robert Witten SCHOOL SCHOOL LIFE ATHLETICS ACTIVITIES FEATURES ADVERTISEMENTS CONTENTS 9 SCHOOL I .
