Craft Club- he elementary schools say farewell with flowers toMrs. Smith. A Note of Thanks Forty-two years ago a young girl with a diploma under her arm and a dream in her eyes left Kutzmwn State Teachers' Col- lege and came home to teach. Certainly Mrs. Helen Newhard Smith needs no introduction to the people of Northampton. For fo ty two years she served her community well. From 1931 to 1954 we knew Mrs. Smith as su- pervisor of music in our elemen- tary schools. There was always a welcome light in the child1'e11's eyes when Miss Newhardn came to sing. We have pleasant memories of those gay operettas. Remember- The Magi's Gift in 1933 Page 11 -' ,, .,., . ,, 11 ::- ,, -te' 121: V -if 5 .5: m ' Q .1 fs.. f f , 5 fs.: . f ,... . 2' wr wwvwsiff :f A?

Mrs. Funke and Dr. Eichler present Mrs. Smith with a special token from her fellow teachers.
