M A D I. E LEAVE MISS MARY BLACK VVAY back in the seventies our High School, together with the Grade and Normal Schools, was conducted in the building which the West Virginian now occupies. The High School was on the second floor of the wing on Quincy street. There a demure little Senior class went about its various studies. It called itself the four-runners, being both the first graduating class, and com- posed of four members, Miss Mary Black and three others. Every member has remained in single blessedness, strange to note. Miss Mary Black is one of the quaintest, dearest little women I have ever seen. It was she, with Mr. Will Crowl, who founded the custom of Thanksgiving baskets for the poor. Yes, she laughed, I don't mind telling you all about my school days, for I haven't done anything to be ashamed of. I haven't had any violent cases with the boys! I taught school for 26 years, too, and, she iinished with modest pride, several now prominent men say that I was the best teacher they ever had,-- which is a good word for old Fairmont High! I.et's give Miss Mary Black three rousing cheers! MISS EVA BRAND . ISS BRAND, one of our retired stars, graduated from our studio in 1883. She later attended a higher institution of our city, the Fairmont State Normal School, from which she graduated two years later. She began her career by teaching in a country school. She next secured a position in the Second Ward School, then housed in the building in which the West Virginian is now located. At that time she began teaching the third grade, which she has been doing ever since. She is one of the brightest educational lights in the state, and a star of which Fairmont High is justly proud. .,, .M.f 1 a l?...,,- Page Fourteen
