Quinta THERE ARE HIGHLIGHTS to be noted in a review of Mrs. Edwards' teaching career in Newport News. One such is her long and brilliant sponsorship of the Literary Club. For many years this organization carried on a high level program and once a year presented an outstanding assembly program. Mrs. Edwards' teach- ing career has been ably matched by service in the professional organizations of the city and state. Her service in the Newport News Education Association, as its president and as a working member in many capacities, constitutes a notable chapter in its history. It is difficult to assess the many values which flow from a teach- ing career that is spent virtually in one great school. The work of a contributive teacher is enhanced by its presence in a school which offers great opportunities for contribution. Mae Marshall Edwards is a teacher who rose to meet the obligation which such opportunities impose. Probably the basic service rendered by a teacher throughout 3 period of years is that rendered to the thousands of students who study in her classes. Figuring three hundred different pupils Der year, forty years' service would give a total of twelve thou- sand young people who have enjoyed a period of continued can- tact with the teacher in the classroom and in other activities - the population of a small city, lt is an impressive thought, it is J reflection fraught with recollection and pregnant with satis- factions for the years of retirement.
