It is absolutely unnecessary to try and relate in words our appreciation for this dear lady, who has done so much for us individually and collectively. She always had encouraging words for us, and her motherly sweet nature has changed many of our troubles to joy. Every girl holds a vivid recollection of her quotation accompanied with a smile, Girls, don't worry about that, I'll see that it comes out all right. Needless to say she always did. Our hopes will be realized if Mrs. Couch cherishes the fond, rare, memories of our class, that we do of her. illr. ling E. Smith R.

During our two years under his instruction he has given us many good hints on taking trips to Mars in our individual flying machines, and on getting rich quick. We appreciate Mr. Smith very much, and in view of this fact, we shall pay him his favorite compliment. He is human.
