Dedication We dedicate our year book of 1934 to our princi pal, Mr. Lindsey Best. And we wish this tribute to be not only a dedication; we wish it to be also an ap- preciation. Since 1901, Mr. Best has been connected with the Plainfield High School — first, as teacher of science; since 1909, as principal of the school. He has brought to his executive position a rich background of experience, of culture, of educational ideals. Under his guidance, the Plainfield High School has stood for the highest standards: clean sportsman- ship, fine scholarship, integrity of character. To meet the individual problems of each pupil has been his deepest concern. Always, whether the matter related to a present school difficulty or to plans and hopes for the future, he has been ready to help us with unfailing patience and generosity. Always, he has trusted in our finest possibilities and tried to help us to fulfill them. His leadership has brought to the school the spirit of co-operation — co-operation among students and between students and faculty. We regret greatly that he must leave us. With him, as he enters on a period of greater leisure, will go the warmest wishes, not only of the Senior Class, but of all the students and faculty of the Plainfield High School.
