What a true friend we have in Mr. Ivey! Always gracious and dignified even in the most im- possible situations, always willing to help us with our troubles and difficulties, always ready to advise us in his genial fashion, always jolly, understanding, and perfectly grand to us, he holds with perfect ease his double respon- sibility as Vice-Principal and Dean of Boys. Whenever our ways seem dark, dim, or diffi- cult. we seek the wise, kindly counsel of our friend who never forgets a face or name. Ieffer- son boys have a sincere, life-long friend in you. Mr. Ivey. and we really do appre- ciate your friendshipl lifh. 147. an Jnleef Vice-Principal Thomas lefferson High School INqn'2l What an inspiration she is to the girls of Ieffer- sonl When our lives are not the beds of roses we want them to be, she leads us through the brambles and gives us a feeling of being pro- tected and cared for. She is a light in a storm, her guiding hand the beacon to bewildered students. The calm, quiet serenity of her office is a marked contrast to the lightning-like effi- ciency with which she handles our problems and shows us how to solve them. Dear Miss Smith, we call very fortunate all students who come within range of your splendid influence! Dean of Girls Thomas lefferson High School ,, . X 41,195 .rw
