ELSIE A.. POTTER GREAT faculty addition to F. H. S. during the past five years has been our cheerful, capable, friendly Miss Potter. We who have been her students can truthfully say that we have benefitted a great deal by her style of teaching, for she has developed our interest in world affairs and she has also taught us to be specific . Knowing Miss Potter as we do, we can say that she has cheerfully undertaken the responsibilities as adviser of the Mi-Y. A great deal of credit for its success during the past few years is due her. Also worthy of recognition is her advisership to the Senior Class and Honor Society to which she has rendered her valuable service. Of particular significance during the past two years in F. H. S. has been the Bond Drive that has been administered under the able leadership of Miss Potter. She has worked diligently and with an indefatigable spirit which has resulted in our eligibility to fly the minute-man flag. We, your friends, will cherish our many happy days spent with you and wish you happiness in your new position, Miss Potter. la-...- ADAH P. REDFIELD OR the majority of teachers who are leaving, we can tack a list of acknowledgments on to our goodbyes-specific ways that they have helped us-but Mrs. Redfield is dif- ferent. You can't lay your finger on appreciation of beauty, the fire in an orator's eye, or the thrill of a Senior Play. You can't say, Thank you, for the taste of finer things of life which her presence here has contributed. ln two years she has won a spot in the student heart! Any member of the Falcon Staff would describe her as the most consid- erate person they have ever met. Shall we wish you success, Mrs. Redfield? That's a cold wordl How about luck? That's too vague. Let's wish you happinessp that covers everything. lQi MARY PHYLLIS SOMMERHOF AILING from Erie, Miss Sommerhof, who seems to be quiet and shy, is one of our ' most likable and efficient teachers. Her personality is one which cannot readily be forgotten along with her cheery smile. We all Wish you, Miss Sommerhof, the best of luck in your future plans. -ig-.i RUTH SMITH LL of us are sorry to see Mrs. Smith leave F. H. S. She has taught several years in the North Side, being principal for a year and a half. She plans to return to that position again next year. Our best Wishes, Mrs. Smith. 14
