Nyberg Miss Matilda Stoekle, who holds a Master's Degree from Northwestern University, is a brilliant woman with rare ability in the field of creative art. Her approach to everything while here at North was so original that she was able to touch off the divine spark in the most prosaic mind. Thus, in all her English classes, the arduous task of theme Writing became something of a joy and a challenge to the imagination. She seemed to have a gift for discovering hidden talent that might otherwise have remained forever buried. Her untiring effort to develop in her pupils a pride in themselves, her faith in their inherent abilities and vvorthfwhile qualities, and her unswerving loyalty to North Division made Miss Stoekle one of our school's true builders.

n jigufe fo MRS. ALICE KNIGHT A graduate of the University of Chicago with Phi Beta Kappa honors, Mrs. Alice Knight is an example of the high scholarship, the lofty ideals, and the strength of character that has become tradition in a university that holds high rank among the leading schools of America. Mrs. Knight's field is science, a field in which she has excelled as both a scholar and a teacher. Under her guidance here at North, the wonders of creation unfolded to the thousands of eager young students who attended her classes, and there were few whom her enthusiasm did not inspire to work for the love of learning rather than solely for a credit in biologyg and to everyone who came under her tutelage, she was teacher, counselor, friend. She gave the hestg she demanded the hest. Her motto: Hitch your wagon to a starf' For many years Mrs. Knight was head of the National Honor Committee and the Local Honor Committee. She was instrumental in organizing the Future Teachers' Cluh of North Division, the purpose of which is to encourage outstanding students to enter the field of teaching. In fact, there seemed to he no limit to the projects delegated to her competent management. A born executive she performed every assignment efficiently and expeditiouslyg and no task was too small not to be worth doing well. Yet, greater than all these, stands the nobility of her character, the warmth of her friendly personality, the depth of her understanding.
