Are these pallid stones- this utter ruin all that the Fates leave to us? No, not all. Not all their fame, their wonder, and the potent memories that cling about them are dead. For here, where a column falls, a hero fell, here where the lonely bat holds his midnight vigil, the haughty eagle once held sway, and here, where the swift and silent reptile glides, a monarch ruled upon a golden throne. Before the days when these ruins teemed with life, Aeneas, in his fragile bark, set out with his loyal band to seek his promised city, Through all manner of adversities he struggled until finally he reached his coveted goal. And since that time, made memorable by the art of poets and historians his deeds have been an inspiration to each succeed- ing age. Because the classics have had, through all ages, a profound in- fluence upon the culture and literature of mankind, and because the acl- ventures of Aeneas are somewhat similar to ours as we nzake our way through high school, we use a classical subject centered upon the travels of Aeneas as our theme for the HEClGlI'C17l.'U 9

Dedication QE GRADUATE of old Central High, Miss Bartley entered the Toledo Normal College in preparation for her career E jg as a teacher. d lx W After a few years of teaching in the elementary E .liflyl l'.!,f A' . . . . : M E schools, she pursued her increasing interest 1n art by attending Columbia University where she received her Bachelor of Science degree and a diploma in the Supervision of Fine Arts. Teaching for some time in Waite High School, she carried on her work by attending summer sessions at Harvard and at Santa Barbara, California, where she studied under Frank Morley Fletcher, Director of the College of Arts in Edinburgh. Since her transfer to Libbey she has made an extensive European tour during which she enjoyed six weeks' study in the principal art centers of Italy, one month in Vienna, where she visited the Cizek School, and one month in Munich at the Hofmann School. ' In our own city, Miss Bartley is a member of the Toledo Women Artists' Society, and of the Toledo Museum of Art. She maintains a studio at Mackinac Island, and her hobbies are antique jewelry and objects of art. During her years at Libbey, she has won much admiration by her untiring industry. Those who work with her and are warmed by her friendliness, become the most steadfast of her friends. Much of her time is given to the Edelicm, and it is through her efforts that the art work reaches such a degree of excellence-one of the factors which aids in the winning of the high position that the Edelicm has attained among the year-books of other schools in Dhio. And so, for these reasons, we think it a seemly laudation to faithful work that this, the Edelian of 1932, be dedicated to HAZEL BARTLEY l l ,W D-
