T H E S L' N D I A L Montrkat Normal School Page Four Mr. Woodward Mr . Woodward TO MR. AND MRS. WOODWARD All these years that we have known Mr. and Mr . Woodward, it has been a pleasure and an inspiration to be near them. Each year we have grown to love them more. Mrs. Woodward's sweet smile and winning personality have drawn each one of us very near to her. And Mr. Woodward—why, he has the patience of Job, and we all admire him for i:. We consider Mr. and Mrs.. Woodward two of the dearest friends that we have. There arc few things in life better than a friend. We count ourselves fortunate in having these two wonderful people as ours. Mr. and Mrs Woodward, you have made this school what it i and we cannot go from Montreal without realizing that you have made a real home lor u . In our home we know that we can go to our parent- at any time and get just the help we want and need, and so it has been with you. Wc have felt that we could come to you with our many joys, sorrows, and problems. Here are our best wishes for you as wc all separate. We hope you have the brightest years ever, and we know others whom vou are with will love you as do the students of the Monti S School. You have from us the deepest love and respect that a Student Body could give. TO MRS. S. L. WOODW ARD Sometimes one cannot express herself in her own words. Yet, while reading books, poems, or other articles, we find words put together so beautifully that we are bold enough to copy and use them to express our own feelings, especially words that suit a person so well that we immediately connect them with that person. With apologies to Edgar Guest I write the lines taken from one of his poems. The poem is for Mr-. ! . L. Woodward (our school mother) who gave us the beautiful rock-garden along the side of the road. “The lilacs in spring ring she mother once more. An' she lives in the midsummer rose. THE WOODWARDS To know them is to love them, Ihey’re friends of our better days, And as we find we've lost them Each one’s heart prays 1 hat God will treat them kindly, Where e'er tread their feet, That others may have blessings. As we've had in .Montreal. —E. Boyd.

School Skniok Coi.i.kok Class HISTORY OF THK CLASS OF 1933 Do you breathe .i sigh ;u xvc approach the time of graduation' Truly, speaking for most of us, we do! There were two old veterans, Marline Robertson and Mary Jones, left over from the Senior High Class of 31. to welcome and join the Junior Class of 32. There were twenty-one of us to share the joys and hardships together, but we earnestly say that our joys were more numerous than our hardships. There were many parties during the year besides the “big events, such as: the basketball tournament (and by the way, we won), the community dinner, cleaning of the Winsborough Building, and the Junior- Senior banquet, which was the climax. At the end of the year when graduation day came, we sat back as timidly as mice, hoping when we became Seniors, to look as wise and cultured as those “Senior Normals'’ who were beginning new fields of life. All through our Junior year luck seemed to be in our hands, and although there were trials, we waded through them and came safely to the Senior year. As we entered our Senior year, we were sorry to find that four of our former class-mates could not join us. However, we were glad that the remaining seventeen were privileged to be back. We had a good time working for the Seniors the last year, but this year we have been entertained by the Juniors and are grateful to them for the good times they have given us. Work seems to have taken the greater part of our time thi- vear, and perhaps some will welcome graduation, but we have a tender spot in our heart for the place we leave, and although our eves may (ill as we receive our diplomas, we 'hall go forward into the world, trying t » live up to the ideals Montreal Normal School has taught us.

Near the end of the evening he felt something in his net. Drawing it out he found, to his great astonishment, seventeen little gold fish whose •ins and tails were sprinkled with blue spots. To his further amaze- ment they began to speak: “Listen, and we shall tell .1 story we learned front a shell'' Then in turn each little fish spoke: Number one began. “There was a class in 1933 which went out from Montreat Normal School to face life and the future. The members of that class have not let life’s baffling problems overcome them. Just as Virginia Kohout was always at the right place at the right time on the basketball court in Montreal, she i now a be- loved nurse, always where she is most needed, at Johns Hopkins hospital. The second fish said: “Edna Smith has not only fathomed Einstein theory, but she has formulated another deeper one about solving matrimonial problem mathematically. ’ The third little fish was anxious for his turn to speak. “Far away in Africa on the bank- of the Congo is a cozy little cottage where ever;, day little black girls and boys go to hear the wonderful stories told bv their missionary lady , Trulah Wright.” Nell Justice,’’ the fourth fish told, “gave up the teaching pro- fession early in life to join the Robert Mantel! Company. She is internationally known as the perfect Shylock.” “Lucilc Gardner, who began her journalistic career as editor-in- chief of the Sun Dial, the fish next in line continued, “is now editor of the Sex )o h 'limes. Since she accepted this position, the circulation of the paper has been doubled. Number six had a twinkle in his eye. (How like “Bill”!) “Mildred William- ha begun an experiment to prove that it is easier to manage one man than a student Isody of girls. She has chosen a certain other Bill for the experiment.” “Annette Hester’s career as a teacher was a short one, said the eve-nth in line. She deemed it better to be a life-time companion and housekeeper for a certain L- . Their home i in Eric, Penn- sylvania.”
