Janis Grvcns (Business Manager). Pauline Williams (Associate Editor). FOREWORD CHE Staff of the Shield of 1946 presents this fifteenth edition of the Shield with feelings of gratitude and relief. Our gratitude is to Miss I ewis. who has given us freely of her time and counsel, to Miss Jenkins for her interest and help, and to all those who have aided us in making this Shield all that we have hoped for. Our relief is that after countless conferences, rewrite jobs and deadlines, we have finally completed our Shield and are able to present it to you. In our Shield, we have tried, first, to preserve a record and remembrance of the very happy school year which has just passed, and second, to show how our most important school symbol, the Shield of the Annie Wright Seminary, can and does play a vivid part in all of our school life. It is our hope that after reading this year book you will not only recall the happy events of this year, but that you will also be better acquainted with the Shield of your school, and of its signify iru v to you. Sally Pierce, Editor-in Chitf 4

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
