dn 14-I Citi en Sincerely faithful to state, country and school, Wylie A. Parker, principal of Forest, is an A-1 citizen in all respects. The author of the proclamation which the state legislature adopted in 1931, setting aside the week in which Texas Independence Day falls as Texas Week, Mr. Parker is true to Texas democracy and Texas ideals. Establishing the Texas Memorial Library, which is now one of the largest and finest school collections of its type with more than 2,000 books and pam- phlets about Texas, is another of his many accomplishments. These books are presented to the library at the Texas Week assembly by clubs, classes and individuals. Many of the trees in front of the school, dedicated to renowned Texans, were provided by Mr. Parker. The inauguration of the service flag is the work of Mr. Parker's patriotism and earnestness as an American. Since its initiation many hundreds of names have been added to it as a result of his tireless search for information of ex-students in the service, their addresses and their accomplishments. Next to his respect for and loyalty to the red, white and blue is his devotion to the green and white of Forest. The twelfth man on the Lion squad, Mr. Parker has not missed a Forest football game in the past 27 years. With Yea Green and White his favorite yell, he is the Lions' chief rooter and encouragement. Mr. Parker never hesitates in the promotion of any drive worthwhile to the school. Of all the challenges he has offered the students, the challenge to keep waste paper out of the halls and off the sidewalks has been most effective. His genial manner and just attitude have won Mr. Parker the respect and honor of all who know him. His love for the students and his profound interest and faith in them provide memories which graduates carry away with them to keep forever. Many and varied are his interests, but they culminate in the services that he has rendered our school. Page Elev
