Madison Central High School - Tychoberahn Yearbook (Madison, WI)

Page 13 text:

The resignation of Mr. Jones is a great loss to the Madison High School. The Tycho-berahn wishes to express to him the regret and sorrow of both teachers and pupils, regret that the school is to lose his wise guidance, sorrow that cordial relationships are to be broken. As the head of a large school. Mr. Jones has shown unusual gifts. He is progressive, yet in the introduction of new subjects and new methods he acts only after careful investigation and mature thought. For fads he has but little sympathy. Convinced, however, that an idea is right, he is indefatigable in achieving his ends. Absolutely fearless, he meets opposition vigorously and overcomes it by a logic supported by facts and by a persuasive manner difficult to understand. Teachers will miss in Mr. Jones an advisor, ever ready to share their difficulties, now suggesting, now encouraging, always sympathetic. Pupils will lose a friend deeply interested in their work and in their play, but above all interested in them as boys and girls with faults to be corrected and with virtues to be cultivated. Not all of our students have been so fortunate as to have personal dealings with him. Nevertheless, he has known them and has thought and planned for them. Happy are those who have been summoned to his office, whether for censure or praise, for there they have been face to face with a MAN.
