JffarultQ H. H. KEEP, Superintendent Science ERNEST V. SHOCKLEY, Principal English and History DAVID M. HOOVER, Ass ' t Principal Mathematics and Drawing LOUISE E. RIEMAN Music and Drawing QDur ukartjrra The Class of 1906 wish to take this opportunity to express their thanks to the many teachers under whose watchful guid- ance they have been during- the past twelve years. The many childish annoyances which they have had to endure have all been borne patiently and with unvarying 1 good humor. We now be- gin to see for the first time how trying we must have been many times in the past, but we feel that they understood us and worked for our good at all times. We have deserved all the scoldings we have received and readily grant that it was all done for our own good. Years from now we will look back and see, even better than we do now, that they always had our welfare at heart. We owe them more than we can ever repay, and the only way we can show our appreciation of their work is by being the men and women thev so earnestly tried to make us.

Sal wm {Uplp A ©ribttfr Baldwin Phelps, Baldwin Phelpa, The man who shakes the grate, Who ' s always tarried, But he ' s going to be married, In nineteen eight. The man behind the broom is just as essentia] to a well-ordered school room as the man behind the book, and this is why we de- vote so much space to our broom holder. Our genial, albeit some- what crusty, janitor has reached the age where he is not carried away by the pranks of school boys and the whims of school girls. His many years of exper- ience as janitor -and general ov- erseer of juvenile gymnastics have made him a most valuable man to the superintendent. His knowledge of everything per- taining to school management, sanitation and architecture, is little short of marvelous. He has endeavored to keep us in the bounds of propriety while in the halls and on the play ground, and we now for the first time confess that we have a warm spot in our hearts for Baldwin. Heretofore we have made him believe that he was our sworn enemy, because he would not let us slide down the baluster or go down the stairs four to six steps at a time. So here ' s to Baldwin, and may the Phelps dynasty continue to hold forth in the future as it has in the past.
