Ju Memoriam Colonel Burton A. Adams May 9, 1875 — December 16, 1951 Principal of Technical High School 1934 - 1940 Burton A. Adams inspired everyone who worked with him. We knew, while in his school, that he also served well far beyond the schoolhouse walls as a major on the battlefields of World War I, as president of his service club, as moderator of his church, as husband and father in his respected family. His physical bearing was erect and springy in keeping with his military experience, but there were no harsh traits in his character. It took but a moment to become aware of his kindness and warm regard for all the people he came to know, not only as students at Technical High School, but as his associates in many important projects in the community. Burton Adams enjoyed sound workmanship. From his scholarly background he could judge performances in the classrooms and the shop as well, and his life was devoted to guiding his students to choose patterns for their lives based upon enduring ideals and increasing service to others. He would have humbly disclaimed that the example chosen by many of his discerning students was to be like Mr. Adams himself. — M. MARCUS KILEY Assistant Superintendent of Schools
