A TRIBUTE TO FLORENCE A. KIRBY In the fall of 1948, Miss Kirby re- tired from Lowell Teachers College as Professor of English and Speech. It was in 1926 when Miss Kirby first came to Lowell Teachers College. Previous to this time she had been a teacher in Holden, Massachusetts, and Caldwell, New Jersey, and a super- visor in Orange, Connecticut; she had served as principal and train- ing-school teacher at the Lexington Avenue School in Lowell. Under Miss Kirby ' s guidance we received excellent training which we appreciate; we thank her for the stimulating example which she embodied in her teaching. We cannot repay her, but we know that each one of us will be a center for greater in- fluences for good for having spent many happy hours in her classes. We hope Miss Kirby will find en- joyment in her retirement and that she holds many fond memories of Lowell Teachers College.
