IN APPRECIATION O 0 6 0.00.9000 Thank you, Mr. Regan! When one has most efficiently filled so many positions in the life of the Oxford Orphanage, it is not easy to find Words to express the appreciation and gratitude he so richly deser- ves. Think of the experience he has had! And how varied! Yet he has found in each something he has enjoyed and found re- warding. Variety makes life interesting, consequently, it is doubtful that Mr. Regan found many dull moments. Having graduated from Elon College, he soon became a member of the Orphanage staff. Indeed, he has had the oppor- tunity to learn about boys and girls, for since 1929, he has held these positions on the campus: coach of all boys' athlet- ics, cottage counselor, Sunday school superintendent, high school teacher, director of the athletic program for the chil- dren, principal of John Nichols School, and now, full-time As- sistant Superintendent of the Oxford Orphanage. Mr. Regan succeeded Mr. D. S. Johnson in 1943 as princi- pal of the John Nichols School, previously, he had taught in the high school department. In this capacity, he Won the ad- miration and esteem of his teachers and pupils. Each knew he was a friend . It is true that he is now in another office, but at the same time, members of the faculty and children in the classrooms can be assured of his very keen interest in the Welfare of the school. For all that he has meant to the school and continues to mean, we are deeply grateful, and Wish for him much satis- faction in his service, for Service is the noble proof of a noble lifef' Page Twenty-Seven
