the- Saxifrage OUR PRINCIPAL William D. Parkinson, our Principal, is an inspiring- teacher, a wise advisor, and a true friend. He graduated from Dartmouth in 1878, receiving an A. B. degree. He then took up the study of law at the National University, Washington, D. C, from which he received the degree of LL. B. After a most successful and varied experience as teacher and superintendent of schools, he became an agent for the State Department of Education. From that posi- tion, in 1920, he came to our Normal School. His inexhaustible patience and his active interest in all student activities have done much for us and for the ad- vancement -of our school. The members of the Class of 1925 appreciate sincerely the high ideals he,, has inspired that we may become efficient teachers and good citizens. |Q Fitchburg Normal 9 5
