A TRIBUTE EVEN years of guiding and leading Roosevelt on the pathway of knowledge is our debt to Mr. Ammermang nay, not only seven but many more, for he was assistant principal for six years and now is our instructor in the College Guidance Department. Mr. Ammerman has always maintained a close relationship with the thousands of boys and girls in our school. He has helped them over the rough spots in the road to success with the wisdom of his experience and his wide knowledge of human nature. We pay tribute to him by these words which are only the outward expression of admiration- Willingness of serviceg Unfailing tact and courtesyg Quite efficiency: Great kindness. During Mr. Ammerman's years of office, Roosevelt has carried on with a smooth efficiency, with a minimum of disturbance and confusion. Even in times of irregularities, such as, the time of closing of the third floor, the task of educating three thousand students went on calmly. The welfare of Roosevelt has always been of the greatest importance to Mr. Ammerman. The duties of his office naturally kept him from making as many intimate personal contacts as he would have liked, but there are innumerable boys and girls who have been helped by him. With the pupils who failed to do their part in cooperating, he was never known to become angry. The requests outside of his regular line of duty were many, and he always complied grace- fully if the circumstances permitted him to do so. No, Mr. Ammerman has not left us-the students still have the beneht of his wise council in the college department, and the memories of his services shall live on. Our deepest gratitude and thanks go out to him: Roosevelt pays tribute to Mr. Charles Ammerman. M. RICHARD REDDEN hits, lim N Fifteen
