ISS JENKINS ' fine influence has been an especial blessing to this class because she came to the Seminary in our Freshman year, so this is the first class that has spent all of its upper school years under her guidance. Miss Jenkins influence has been much. We cannot forget the talks that we ' ve had with her nor the inspiration that we have gained from them. We never can forget the chapel service that she has led. or her smile, or just the warm feeling of her presence. And so when we remember our Seminary days. Miss Jenkins will symbolize to us the best of our memories. 6

THE SHIELD OF THE SEMINARY 4F SHIELD of the Seminary is very familiar to the girls of Annie Wright, but perhaps the significance of the symbols upon that Shield are not so well known to them. We feel that these symbols apply to all phases of school life represented in this year book, the book corresponding to classes, the sword and the stars to activities, and the mortar board to the Seniors. We asked Miss Adelaide Preston, a former headmistress of the Seminary, if she had any information concerning the origin and original meaning of the symbols, and she wrote to us. The only significance I can give you as to the meaning of the symbols is that which would occur to anyone who has read the Bible, The sword of the spirit, the shield of faith, and the word of God. ' It is a beautiful shield and has a wonderful motto. The girls who have inherited them should be both proud and thankful. ' 5
