(OodkaiimL • To Miss Mabel E. Smith, with sincere appreciation for all that she has done for us, the Class of 1943 dedicates this Syllabi s. For many years Miss Smith has been Registrar and Associate Principal, and until this year nas the adviser to senior boys as well as girls. She has, through her posi- tion in charge of programs, made school life easier for all of the students, sparing neither time nor effort to help each individual find a significant place for his special talents. Her kindness and thought fulness, too often hidden by the austerity of the front office, have done much to make pleasanter and more inspiring our American heritage of a high-school education.
