Although she was with us as teacher and friend for only a few short weeks of our Senior year, we recognised in her many qualities that we admired, qualities which in future years we would do well to emulate. We know that none of us who knew Miss Moriarty will ever forget her friendly manner, her unbounded patience, and her conscientious devotion to duty.

Peabody High School META Page Eleven IN APPRECIATION Before we leave Peabody High School and the final chapter is written of our days here, we wish now to extend our most heartfelt thanks to our teachers who during the past four years have done so much for us, and who have displayed such an interest in our development and well-being. The preparation of young minds so that they may take their place in society is a difficult, though rewarding task. Our teachers are to be commended for their fine efforts in our behalf. There is no doubt that without their guidance and help w e would have found the struggle towards adulthood much more difficult and trying. We will steadfastly try to justify the faith and confidence that they have placed in our ability to succeed, and we appreciate deeply and humbly their expressions of good will and their never ending patience in dealing with the prob- lems that we presented to them from day to day. To those persons who have done so much for us during our Senior year goes a special vote of thanks. Mr. Frederick R. McManus who gave so much of his time and effort in assisting in the construction of the “META” is deserving of our most profound expression of gratitude. To Miss Mary Luz; we present a bouquet of thanks in recognition of her splendid work as our financial adviser. We sincerely want to extend our thanks to Mrs. Eva L. Haines who so ably aided our art editors in the preparation of their work for our year book. To Mr. Edward Donahue we shall be forever grateful for the help that he has rendered us in his capacity as our class adviser. Our homeroom teachers, Miss Mary Lus, Mr. Arthur V. Johnson, Mr. Thomas Callahan, Mr. Edward T. Donahue, and Mr. D. Edward Gorman have done their utmost to answer our innumerable questions concerning our Senior year at P.H.S., and their kindness and thoughtfulness shall always be remembered by the class of ’53. To Mr. Arthur Barry, our principal, we owe an outstanding debt because of his contributions to our welfare as an educator, and his interest in us as future citizens of our community. May we express our deepest gratitude by saying simply, “Many Thanks.” Last, but not least, comes the entire faculty and the many friends of the Class of ‘53. To them we owe much, for they have guided us on our way to maturity through four years of the most important years of our lives. We will never forget them, and we shall be everlastingly grateful for their understanding and consideration.
