I APPRECIATION AND RECOGNITION It is with great pride that we give RECOGNI- TION to Mrs. Beulah Durr and Mrs. Pearl Nelson who have given over 35 years of their lives to teaching. It is with great pride that we give them APPRECIATION for their great educational work and loving devotion to the many students who were influenced by their advice and understanding. It is with regret that We hear of their leaving and hope that both have a long and happy retirement. MRS. PEARL NELSON MRS. BEULAH DURR Everyone who has lived in Santa Clara thinks of the school and Mrs. Nelson simultaneously, for the school has been the hub of activity for the past twenty years that Mrs. Nelson has served. Previous to this, Mrs Nelson taught in the St. Regis Falls Central School. Mrs. Nelson as teacher and Prin- cipal awakened her students to the many joys de- rived from education. She will be keenly missed by students and parents. Mrs. Durr has lived and taught most of her life in St. Regis Falls. Of the 35 years she taught, 14 years were spent in schools in Utica and Long Is- land, 21 of thesehave been in the fourth grade of this school where she has been a constant inspira- tion to her students. She will be missed by the faculty and the entire student body who have held her in greatest affection and greatest esteem.

As 100 years have passed since St. Regis Falls was established, this 1957 Regent will celebrate the town's Centennial. We hope in a small way that this annual will be a permanent record of the history of St. Regis Falls. We have assembled together pictures and stories of familiar places in St. Regis Falls during the past 100 years. It is the sincere hope of the staff that this an- nual may bring you joy on some reminiscent night in the future. We thank all the faculty, students, and friends who helped to make this book possible. We owe special thanks to Mr. Penslien for his untiring help with the photography, and to the people who furnished us with pictures and information of the history of St. Regis Falls. We hope you will enjoy leafing through this 1957 Regent which we humbly present to you.
