Rowland Hall School for Girls Salt Lake City INTRODUCTION IT IS WISE TO GET KNOWLEDGE AND LEARNING FROM EVERY SOURCE ... Around us, in the trees, in the sky, in the singing of a bird, there is knowledge. To know and understand is the purpose of our lives, that when we look, we also see— when we hear, we also listen. This is the way to hold the riches of life through knowledge in our hearts and minds. As we live, day by day, we increase our knowledge. Every small incident, every feeling we experience, every second of every day weaves itself into our personalities. As we open our minds to encompass some new sensa- tion, some new knowledge, we must expand them to the furthest stretching point, so that every fiber of our beings is pulled tight. The more we discover, the more there is to know. At Rowland Hall we are striving to gain the know- ledge that surrounds us, so we can better achieve un- derstanding of the people who make up part of our in- dividual lives, and therefore, of life itself. If we can know, understand, and grasp everything that life hands us, we are truly living. 2 Lithography by COMMUNITY PRESS Orem, Utah

Mrs. Fredrica Murr With charm and dignity, Mrs. Murr, Rowland Hall librarian, greets us each morning, her mind open and enriched by daily living. She is ever ready to give gentle advice and to comfort heavy hearts. A rich intellect and a knowledge in many fields enable Mrs. Murr to give, from herself and her mind, guidance and under- standing to all Rowland Hall students. For, from whence cometh all understanding but from knowledge? As we look upon these years, we are grateful to Mrs. Murr for showing us, by her gentle wisdom, the virtue of knowledge. Thus, with admiration, and possibly a small touch of awe, we dedicate to you, Mrs. Murr, this book of 1960.

ADMINISTRATION Mrs. Elizabeth T. Corr Mrs. Corr, as headmistress of our school, helps us solve both personal and scholastic problems. She guides us so that desiring knowledge, we can obtain and put our knowledge to use. It is due to Mrs. Corr that Rowland Hall is run efficiently and effectively. The Right Reverend Richard S. Watson Bishop Watson gives not only practical service as head of the school board, but also spiritual guidance to the girls at Rowland Hall. Friday chapel services are special because the Bishop is present to conduct them. Whenever a helping hand or sound advice is needed, the Bishop is there. Mrs. Henrietta Pearson Aunt Henri , our understanding housemother, is comforting and helpful to the boarding students. She also finds time to work with the choir, the acolytes, and the Altar and Chapel Guilds. It is largely due to Aunt Henri ' s efforts that the chapel services are beautiful and meaningful. 3
