THE AXIS fre ' ,.,. , Miss FANNIE A. BISHOP Our Miss Bishop has not been with us long but is there anyone who does not remember the little lady with the kind, smiling face?-the lady whom the little children of the Kindergarten adore, and whom we all look upon with respect. Her loving ways have endeared her to all who have worked with her or been connected with her in any way. still more in the years to come. Miss MARION E. FEELEY There she goes! You can only get a glimpse of her for she's a very busy person. Everyone knows Miss Feeley by her gracious smile and her snappy Walk as she hurries thru the corridors. Pittsfield presented us with Miss Feeley to take charge of the correspondence courses in September, but this was not her first appearance here for she is proud to say that she is a graduate of North Adams Normal. In Psychology classes, the Seniors have found her a walk- ing encyclopedia for she's always ready with an answer for every question. With such qualities, Miss Feeley is sure to be a success in life and our wishes for happiness and prosperity go with her. Although success has already been gained we wish her Miss OLIVE DAVIS Happy, thrice happyg every one Who sees his labor well begun And nol perplexed and mulliplied By idly wailing for wind and tide. Miss Davis came to us as Miss Allyn's successor in the middle of our Snior year and, though we have known her but a short time, she has already won her way into our hearts. Whenever we enter the work-room, she greets us with a happy smile which cheers us for the tasks of the day. We wish our new-found friend the best of success in the years to come.

THE AXIS Miss ANNA J. LAMPHIER To Miss Lamphier we owe our desire to do the things which we do to the very best of our ability. She was i never satisfied to say, That will he all right. It must be as nearly perfect as our unskilled fingers could make it and, to our surprise, we have often found that we really could do something worth-while when we found that we had to do so. XXXN I. X x ps l Often we have objected to perfecting our handwork but l we thank Miss Lamphier for insisting upon our doing so for we realize that some day we shall appreciate it more than now. li May this teacher of ours have many happy experiences in the years which are to follow and may her success be greater every day.

Who has ever come to Normal School and not heard the praises of this man from one end of the huilding to the other. Has he deserved this praise? Indeed he has. Those who attend his handi- craft clawes do so with joy and delight, even though it is hard at times to do the sawing and hannnering which he so pleasantly requires. The members of the class of 19112 can vouch for that. In leaving we hope that Mr. Cummings will always have the many friends he has gained during his stay at Normal.

THE AXIS M ,fi Mas. THERZA VAN E'r'rr:N A friend indeed, Has Mrs. Van proved To the elass of '22 Who into the world Are now about to move. Oh, Mrs. Van! may we do this, or may we do that? is a phrase eonstantly heard at the dormitory, -- and did she ever refuse? Never! She has truly been a Mother Van to eat-h and everyone of us and we are grateful to her from the bottom of our hearts. She has served as Mother to the girls of 'l'at-onie Ilall for several years and we sineerely hope that she v.ill be here many years to eome to guide other foot-steps aright. sh Miss Evrzus ALLYN Miss Allyn, dearly beloved by every member of the Class of '22, was with us only a year and a half having left us in the middle of our Senior year to aeeept a more responsi- ble bosition elsewhere. She was a very busy lady, earry- ing on the secretarial work eonnet-ted with the corres- pondent-e department, but she was never too busy to give a eheery word of greeting and a pleasant smile and some- times, when she was not too rushed, we extended our business in the work-roonv perhaps breaking the points of our pencils or the like ein order to have a little 4-hat with this friend of ours. As we begin our new eareers we wish her all sueeess and happiness in her's.
