DEDICATIO Daily' f' . f The year is 19303 the place, Beacon Hill. The Garland School, contained in one building, is going through a great transition. Gladys Beckett Jones has been elected president of Garland School. This was thirty-one years and thirty-one graduating senior classes ago. We are only one hundred out of over two thousand girls Mrs. .Iones has guided through two years of education and directed toward happy, .fruitful years ahead. Having known so many young girls, Mrs. Jones is a wonder in that she knows each of us as an individual important to her. Every girl that has been at Garland is someone whom Mrs. jones knows well and is interested in to this day. Her office doors are always open to all of the students. She is willing to discuss with a student anything from late Saturday night permission to the solution of the problem of academic probation. Mrs. Jones has also done things for us of which we are not even aware. She knows all our problems, great or small. After Five rigorous days of tabulating final grades, completing records, and cleaning up the business and dust that had accumulated around school, Mrs. jones has often been seen picking flowers and greens at six o'clock on the morning of graduation in order to decorate the school and the church for the festivities of that day. Few know or even ask where the flowers came from. We want to thank her for what she has done for the individuals and for the group of this school, the things we know about and the things we may never realize she has done for us. However, our appreciation is not conhned to the limits of our two years here, for we are conscious of Mrs. hIones's past achievements and of her role in making Garland what it is today. In 1930 Garland moved from Beacon Hill to Commonwealth Avenue, since then the school has progressed rapidly. We have acquired ten buildings on Commonwealth Avenue - one this past year. Garland has become an accredited Junior College. Mrs. jones has led the college through thirty happy and progressive years, and over the years her standards of conduct and of behavior have been the highest. By Mrs. -Iones's example we have learned to be ladies, to conduct ourselves in a manner which is a credit to ourselves, to our college, and, above all, to Mrs. Jones. Mrs. Jones is retiring this year, and we congratulate her for the fine job she has done. To us she will always be the very heart of Garland Junior College.
