IN DEDICATION TO MISS MARY E. FLETCHER . . Above all, however, it is through their lives that teachers give their greatest lessons. By living honestly, they teach honesty; by being human?, they preach humanity; by showing sympathy and understanding to the least in their care, they help to make these virtues a part of all those about them; and by living beautifully, they plant the ha- bit of beauty in young lives. In their patience and self-sacrifices, they say more than a thousand sermons are able to say. By example rather than by precept, they teach. Their language is not of dogma, but of deeds. It is with a deep sense of satisfaction and a keen appreciation of excellence in teaching that we proudly dedicate this yearbook to Miss Mary Fletcher. For her loyalty to Northwest High School, for her dedication to her many students who came in search of knowledge and understanding, for her faithful endurance, and for the steadfast integrity and honesty portrayed, we admiring- ly say thank you to someone who has inspired us to be better educators and more understanding human beings. We realize that knowledge may be gained from books, but we further realize that the true love of knowledge is transmitted only by the personal contact of the teacher. She communicates her own joy in learning, and shares with her students the best treasures of her mind. She lights the. many candles, which in later years will shine back to cheer her. No one has deserved better to be praised as a teacher. No one is more worthy of the title teacher than Miss Mary Fletcher. In Sincere Appreciation, Nick Corral Principal Northwest High School 2
