DEDICATION The dedication to the first Flicker ever published accompanied the above picture and con- cluded in the following manner: “And so, it is with deepest appreciation and gratitude for the debt we can never repay, that we, the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-three, dedicate our annual to our enthusiastic co-worker, our beloved English teacher, and our sincere friend, Miss Hortense L. Harris.” Although more than three decades have passed since these words were written, they are as meaningful now as they were then; for Miss Harris has continued through the years to give tirelessly of herself, helping to mold two generations of fine citizens. Each individual who has come under the influence of her guiding hand is a fitting tribute to her success. As the last class to graduate before her approaching retirement, we are privileged to bestow, an ad- ditional tribute, our yearbook. Miss Harris — we, the class of nineteen hundred and fifty-six, salute you!
