GOOD TEACHER wields a great influence in the molding of the lives of the young people who come into close contact with him. He not only acquaints his pupils with information concerning his subject, he also has a very definite and positive part in the building of their character. All of us at the Rock Island High School feel that lVIr. Frank Dunlap has been a good teacher. His subject, physics, has been well taughtg and his boys and girls have become better men and women through having studied under him. A city populated by those who have served as students under his control would be large. We feel that the citizens of this city would be law obedient and respectful of one another's rights. We should enjoy living in the city populated by lNIr. Dunlapls former students. EARL H. HANSON, Principal. HE retirement of llIr. Dunlap from the teaching staff of our high school gives occasion for all his friends to think upon the kindly and beneficent influence he has exerted. INTL Dunlap is a productive teacher-he has produced so much goodness and usefulness and honesty in the minds of hundreds of Rock Island boys and girls. As he looks back upon his years of service, he should be proud and happy in the knowledge that he has been enshrined in the hearts of students and teachers as a gentle counselor and beloved friend. FLORENCE J. LIEBIZE Faculty HEN lXI1'. Dunlap is retired, Rock Island High School will feel the great loss of a respected and most beloved teacher. His sunny, friendly disposition, his understanding of his pupils, his patience with them, and his generosity are unquestionable. Of all the subjects in the whole curriculum of our school, his course has been made one of the most attractive because of his unfailing humor. ELIZABETH ANN MONTGOMERY, '35 EXT year Rock Island High School students will profoundly miss Mr. Dunlap's friendly presence, because they all have that warm, amiable feeling for him, they know and like his simple, easy, yet effective teaching methodsg they enjoy his diverting stories, and they realize that he feels the same cordial friend- liness for every one of them that they feel for him. No matter how much you will miss your old school, Mr. Dunlap, it will miss you many times more! . CLAIR SCHERSTEN, '35
