THEY SPRODUGED ue. Guides .. . advisors .. . instructors .. . counsellors... teachers... directors... and friends... our faculty members, each and everyone, are all of these. They represent our classes . . . our home- work ...and our report cards. To them we look for guidance and instruction . . . for encouragement ... for praise .. . for understanding . . . and for friendship. Looking back, we remember those little things, seemingly unimportant incidents in the classrooms ... Miss Childs lending another pencil .. . Miss Harrington explaining the intricacies of the typewri- ter... Mr. Richmond patiently repeating the explanation of that last geometry problem . . . Miss Morlock pampering her chemical rock garden . . . the health instructor insisting that we “Stand-up straight” ... Mrs. Pierce explaining the mysteries of the conjugation of a verb . .,, Mrs. Weaver reading aloud ‘““Macbeth” .. . Mr. Anderson asking “Why is red, red?” .. . Miss Agles’ cooking class and the tantalizing aromas that are forever wafting from the home economics room . . . Miss Whit- more keeping us active . . . Mr.Mergler demonstrating the use of the lathe . . . laughing at Mr. Ar- len’s far-fetched joke . . . indulging in after-class discussion . .. complimenting Miss Finnigan on her picturesque bulletin board ... Mrs. Francisco producing a beautiful picture from charcoal . . . Mrs. Dash reading a story . . . Miss Phillips correcting papers and Mrs. Adams making out a test... Miss Backer attempting to work in the noisy conference room... Miss Montgomery supervising a study hall. The grade teachers, too, represent an impor- tant part in our lives... they who taught us our ABC’s ... and 2+2=4.. . that Columbus discovered America ... that verbs and pro- nouns are not one and the same. They taught us the elementary things... the fundamentals. Our faculty members deserve our gratitude... they merit our thanks. They have instructed us for long years in preparation for life’s future stage ... they have expanded our knowledge ... taught us courtesy .. . self-control... in- tegrity ... reliance... cooperation .. . they have humored us when necessary ...and best of all, have listened to our tribulations. They have done this that we might become directors ourselves ... that we might rise up from ob- scurity and take our places on the ever- changing stage... the stage that is ever open to ambition and talent .. . the stage of life. aa Miss Backer.
