McEVOY Miss McEvoy be- lieves in discipline. It is our impression that she also believes that order is the first law of nature. We have been priv- ileged to count her as a friend. Truly fortunate are those students who daily receive the f1'uits of her teaching. GILMORE Miss Gilmore par- lez's Spanish, and induces others to parlez it in a most excellent manner. Her pupils have no difficulty in purchas- ing hot tamales. Figure that out. In looking back over this, we have a vague sensation that there is something wrong with our Philology. BELL Under the direction of Miss Bell the Art Department has produced more and better work this year than ever before. Her artistic sense has, through her pupils , shown itself in posters, designs, and above all, the ex- ceedingly well executed book plates for the Annual. Her accommodating en- deavors have impressed all whom she has helped, and they are manyg her ability is evident from the quality of work her department has producedg and as for her relations with her pupils-just ask one! You will hear a eulogy that, like the brook, goes on forever. PILE Mr. Pile inoculates with Trig, and it always takes, he manages the financial affairs of the An- nual, and keeps it out of the hole, he moves among the students, and becomes popular. His versatility, however, is not amazing when one is acquainted with his character, for his magnetism is as inev- itable as his excellence as a Math teacher. Mr. Pile, if gratitude is a gar- ment, we're your overcoat. MORGAN Do we know what conference means? I'll say we do. Miss Morgan. Despite this deep-seated grudge which we V. W. X. Y. Sz Z.'s hold, we all honor her and think of her as one of the few never-changing im- pressions of Freshman year. WALKER To know her is to love her, as the students all testify, and that is the true test. Miss Walker, your influence will hover around your pupils as a sweet fragrance. SNIDOW It is necessary to think a long time before writing when one attempts to describe Miss Snidow. If we portrayed her in fitting terms, we would be said to be affected and prone to exaggerate, so we merely ask you to meet Miss Snidow, and form your own opinion.

T-f tlkengl-HI ANNUAL launuav1.nuw.x mwlwv 'naw L W 4 if Our Teachers Z Y Carved crookedly, ruthlessly, indelibly on the top of many a miniature X first grade desk, smiles the inscription of seven-year-old devotion, I love Q teacher, and that phrase, changed, enlarged, glorified, goes hand in hand with the education of every pursuer of knowledge, until his college diploma I is safely stowed away among treasures of yesterday, and he puts from him such childish things as schools, to step forth a full-fledged adult, wiser tg' and more learned than Socrates. It may take the form of flowers or E4 candy, or the manual labor of eraser dusting and board scrubbing, it may appear in the guise of sonnets to the youngest, prettiest teacher, it may raise its head proudly, in an essay, full of stilted words and trite, but eloquent, phrases proving to the shy, handsome young bachelor , teacher just what his influence has meant in one life, it may lie in the f dedication of a high school literary production sure to startle the world, , but it is ever present and never effectually concealed by growling con- 9 cerning certain unsuspecting teachers who remain in blissful ignorance as to the commotion they have caused. Just as human nature invariably hides its deeper 'emotions from the eyes of the world, so students generally say very little of their affection for instructors, but when there is a bold, daring, independent spirit in a group, who: voices an affection for a teacher, the immediate response and confessions of the more shy and timid brothers would cause the heart of any discouraged teacher to grow warm with the satisfaction of true success. De we know why we have bestowed such rewards on you, you may ask? Ah, we pupils, who think a little, can tell you of numbers of ways in which we see that you deserve this love. There is not one of us who, after a fit of disobedience, obstinacy, or disrespect, does not fully realize the heavy trials we force on our teachers, and who would not gladly pay double retribution for the pain and hurt he has thoughtlessly caused. We may appear unappreciative, but we do appreciate and cherish in our memory the patience of the teachers who stayed after school and helpd us translate Latin, or gave up off periods to point out the defectsain our last theme, or came early to drum into our seemingly impregnable skulls the intricacies of geometry. We know that you give unsparingly the best years of your lives to make us what we ought to be,,and we appreciate the fact that you are the true upholders of the American nation, for through you and you alone is the learning taught her sons and daughters which will raise America to the front ranks among the nations of the world. Because we feel thus toward you, our teachers, we would eulogize you now rather than when your days of earthly toil are over. Because we honor you, we hope that you will overlook our many weaknesses. Because we love you, we wish that Time may deal lightly, People may deal justly, God may deal gently with our teachers. x K . v t E af N 15 v J J, ' ' w 1 - E' UIIGW v:vumz..xxuf.famvz.m'M:ev11.sswu H MI U 14. -,.:,::,' ...QQ rg-sau gall I I
