THEODORA BOOTH DRISCOLL AN APPRECIATIQN ln the attractive setting of a laboratory, equipped with cases of specimens, pictures, charts, and drawings, and with a Well-filled conservatory adjoining, Mrs. Dr scoll has conducted her classes in hiology and general science for the past seven years. K Here she has worked quietly but tirelessly,tinstilling into her pupils some of her own enthusiasm for science. For an extra-curricular activity she organized the Garden Club. lts purpose is not only to teach the elements of gardening but also to give practical experience by means of work in the conservatory. lf its success can be measured by tl '- beautiful flowers that have found their way into office, library, and sometimes ss rooms, it is an extremely profitable organization. Mrs. Driscoll has lived in the Tonawandas all her life. She was graduated from Tonawanda High School in 1896, and entered Buffalo Normal the follow- ing September. After her graduation in 1899, she was given a position in the elementary school of the city. Later she was transferred to Junior High, Where she taught arithmetic for several years. Then she entered High School and began her present lim: fist work. ln luly, 1924, Miss Booth was married to Mr. lguzes Driscoll. Soon after their marriage, they began the erection of a home on Hill Street Where they now reside. Since Mrs. Driscoll has completed her full quota of years of successful teach- ing, she will retire at the close of this session. She will be greatly missed by both pupils and faculty members, but all join in wishing ner long life and the best of health to enjoy herwell-deserved rest. 10
