MR. WALKER B. TRAFTON On Memortam Mr. Walker B. Trafton was a member of the faculty of New Bed- ford High School for twenty years. He served as Science Department Head and principal of the night school. However, we shall not only remember these facts. Mr. Trafton was a man who truly cared for others. He gave freely of his intelligence, his energy and his friend- ship. He was an admired teacher and a respected friend to all who knew him. Mr. Trafton was one who had learned life’s greatest lesson of service and self-sacrifice and we were privileged to have him among us. On Appreciation In the course of time, mankind has come to know the value of a truly gifted teacher. A person who can inspire students with an understanding of their studies, and through them, a greater under- standing of life itself is surely a precious gift to society. Of this sort is Mrs. Edith Wollison. During her many years with us at New Bedford High, she inspired her students with an appreciation and understanding of higher mathematics. But her genius ran deeper than the subject she taught. In her daily habits and her conversation, Mrs. Wollison exemplified the type of person we should all strive to become. We of the Senior class deeply regret her departure as the loss of an inspired teacher, and a fine, upstanding individual. REFERENCE LIBRARY 25 New Bedford, Mass
