6 l-lis is the most difficult position of all. The task as educator and coun- selor for twelve hundred students re- quires wisdom, knowledge and a deep understanding, and merits all of our admiration and respect. This has been a successful year, Mr. Robertson, and we, the Senior class of l939, wish to thank you for all the help and consideration which you have shown us. Suzy and l were in a pensive mood, wondering, thinking, discussing. But there was one thing that we absolutely agreed upon and that was our ad- miration for two people who are just about as engrossed and entwined in Galesburg Senior High School as the very name itself, our deans, Miss Cox and Mr. Snyder. We truly found it quite impossible to discover anything they had not done for us, from skill- fully bandaging a wounded finger to helping us choose a vocation or plan an important speech, club party, meet- ing or banquet. lt is because of their guidance that we have Service League for the girls and the Forum, an organization for boys. All the student body can say is Thank you, deans. Miss Cox Mr. Snyd
