THE TATTLER Page Eleven ’W ’ E “claim” the best faculty this year that the St. Anthony High School has ever known. Good natured, jolly, capable, ever ready and willing to assist and mean business in the school room, are the words we would use in trying to define our faculty. We came to school last September with a feeling that we were going to work in harmony with our teachers. Now that our school year i s nearly gone we can see where we have fully accom° plished this. It would be impossible to estimate the good feeling, love, appreciation and respect the students of our school have for our Superintendent, Mr. Neifert, who has so faithfully worked for our advancement and who has put forth every effort to make our school worth while. As a result it has grown from a mere school with perhaps a dozen pu- pils to a recognized high school of about one hundred and fifty students. Other schools have been forced to recognize our ability as scholars, debators and athletes. Professor Neifert has the deepest love and sincerest respect of every one of his students and we would gladly keep him in our school until the last. But the saddest epoch in all the his- tory of the Red and Black is fast ap- proaching. When the class of T5 has graduated, when the last goodbyes have been said and when the school doors must close for a short vacation, we must say goodbye to our beloved Superintendent, D. C. Neifert. We would keep him with us but we cannot for he is leaving our school forever and although every student already seems to feel the loss of our Professor, we all wish him success wherever he may go. We know that “Prof.” will succeed wherever he goes and we assure him that the teachings and good influence he has left with us will never be forgot- ten. We have one of the most capable principals the State of Iowa could af- ford, H. Lillian Maiden, who has through her ability and genius helped to hold up the record and high standing of our school. We hope to have Miss Maiden with us again next year and we know that if she does return she will accom- plish much and with the love and good will of her students will keep our school on a level with other high schools. Yes, Miss Smith did come back this year, and a happy bunch we were when we saw the sweet, happy face of our history teacher who is loved by all he r students. We hope to have Miss Smith with us again next year and the Seniors are sorry they will not be here to “get” those pleasant smiles from the modest Miss Smith. Miss Kennedy is especially fond of her happy Sophomore class for they are a jolly good class, studious, too. We can- not overlook Miss Kennedy ' s ability as a language teacher and here ' s hoping she will come again next year.

LUCIUS M. PERKINS University of Iowa, ’14 Instructor in Science. Foot ball, basket ball and base ball coach- Mr. Perkins is especially popular with the boys. The girls like him too. He likes to see the fellows come out and work. We admire the man who embodies victorious efforts; the man who never wrongs his neighbors; who is prompt to help a friend; but who has those virile qualities necessary to win in the stern strife of actual life.” HELEN E. SMITH, B. A. Bellevure College, T2 InStruCtress in HiStory, Civics and Economics. Sweet tempered. Has charge of the class play. Miss Smith is especially fond of pretty horses and juSt loves” to ride. HANNA MARIE SPENCE, D. S. Hig hland Park College, T4 Miss Spence teaches Domestic Science and we have never had a teacher her superior. She is loved by every girl in her class. Of course the boys do not care to sew, therefore they do not know Miss Spence. I hate to see things done by halves. If it be right, do it boldly, if it be wrong, leave it undone.”

Page Twelve THE TATTLER Mr. Perkins, too, is one of our faculty members of whom we have cause to be proud. He is doing great work in the scientific line and the boys say he is a “good fellow” on the athletic field. We understand that Mr. Perkins is coming back next year and we wish him success. What would the domestic science girls do it it were not for Miss Spence? She is the most capable teacher we have ever had for that department and we are proud of her. She is always the same sweet, quiet Miss Spence and we will be especially glad to ha e her again next year. Mr. Patterson is still with us and he is making those business students work in order to accomplish the needed re- sults.

We have enjoyed this year of school and have accomplished much. We hope that succeeding years will be as success- ful as this one has been. We owe a great deal to the faculty this year for the many long helpful hours they have spent with us and we sincerely appreciate every member of the faculty of the St. Anthony High and wish them all success in their respective positions.
