Our beloved Dean of Girls, Mrs. Gervis Taylor, leaves with the closing of the 1947- 48 school years She is retir- ing after thirty full years of service to Amarillo High S c h o o 1 students. Another will occupy Mrs. Taylor's desk, b ut another could never occupy her place in our hearts. f X lx A3-x 'JN , N ll is K I f fi sf To some of you, thirty years may seem like an eternity. Yet it can seem like a short time. In September of 1918, I began teaching in Amarillo Senior High School. To me it seems a very short time ago because I have so enjoyed my association with its ever-changing pupil and teacher personnel. It is a matter of regret that the time for my retirement has come. A teacher's work offers many compensations other than salary. It affords daily contact with the best of American youth, many of whom are an inspiration. - Every time I read a paper I am interested in news of you, whether you have married, had your first baby, or entered your first business venture. I am gladdened by the success stories of boys and girls whom I have watched through high school. Sometimes though, I am saddened by the failure of others of you who have been in our school. In the years to come, I shall still be watching for news of you. I am going to believe you will be using your influence and example toward making this a better and saner world for other boys and girls. Don't disappoint me. Best wishes to you all, Mas. GERVIS TAYLOR
