Dear Peg, The time of year has come around when those to whom we present the Quiver must be chosen. This is a very happy time even though there comes with it a sad moment also. The ones to whom we present it are made happy, but because we can't help thinking of the others to whom it could be presented as well, we are sad. The time and year will come when they shall get the honor, and we know they all deserve it. Well, Peg, we have chosen Austin Moden - you know him as WPopn - and Mary and Bessie Carpenter as the honorites of this '59 Quiver. I just had to write and tell you about our choice because last year you were in Bessie Carpenter's homeroom. Since you've been out of school a year, you probably remember Mr. Moden as the algebra and geometry teacher in room 322. After I had the interview with him, I'm sure I can hold other remembrances of him besides that he is a mathematics teacher. He has been teaching at our alma mater since 1920. nPopn remarked that he enjoyed seeing nSnow White and the Seven Dwarfsn and nSweethearts' on the screen. Peg, if you ever ask Mr. Moden to dinner, have shrimp salad, I know he'l1 be anxious to come back. He thinks uswingn is swell, but he enjoys going to a dance where they don't jazz too much. I could tell you more about our friend, but I have twenty minutes to finish my letter before I go to chemistry. Bessie and Mary Carpenter, who have won our hearts, are not twins as they are taken for time and time again. Bessie has been our pedagog for twenty-four years and Mary for nineteen years. In these years we have learned to love them for their'personality and friendliness. They have gone through high school together, since college days they had always dressed alike. College days found Mary at Ann Arbor and Bessie at Ypsilanti and Albion. They are both interested in gardening, picnicking, motoring, and camping. Having been born in Waterford, they are true Michiganders. The Carpenter sisters hold this as their inspiring view in teaching: The student who is not always the brightest - the one with whom the teacher has to struggle in order to pass him - seems to get farther in life than the brighter ones. Time's a hurryin'. I know you have to be on duty at seven. When you receive this, it will probably get you in at seven- five. So to save time, I'll sign off and dash to the chemistry lab. As ever, U- 4 F' A-' ,y .
