O. H. Bakeless, M. A. A teacher — A fnend Mr. Bakeless first came lo this Teachers College in 1890. In 189. he left to resume his studies toward a higher degree. After earning his Al.. . he taught at the Carlisle Indian Training School for several years. Mr. Bakeless again took up his work at Bloomsburg in 1902 and lias served faithfully ever since. Mr. Bakeless is a true teacher. In the many years that he has taught us we found him pleasant at all times. Seldom was his countenance lacking that cheerful aspect for which we will remember him ; every day found him greeting his students with a pleasant smile ; his patience was as the Rock of Cibralter in trying to make us tuiderstand the deep thoughts involvetl in the philosophy of education. His tireless efforts in the interests of this Senior Class, not onl)- as a group but as individuals, can nexer be repaid. The Senior Class activities were always graced with his presence and his ad ice was always heeded. As individuals he helped us to solve many (jf the difticult problems which arose during our school life. We not onlv remember Mr. Bakeless as a teacher, but also as a friend and pal : manv times during our stay at this school he has emulated the characters in Oliver W. Holmes , The Boys. He had been mixed up with the boys on several occasions, but was not taken out without mak- ing a noise. He was always accepted as one of The Boys. At con- ferences he always had a funny story to tell, which was often the means of emphasizing the point being presented. In t. ' iking leave of Mr. Bakeless we cherish in our hearts the thougiit that we have been influt ' iiced greatly by his ideals, and with these in mind will make greater and better teachers.
