10 SENIOR RECORD DOROTHY POTTEIGER FRANCIS GANISTER Jht Ilemoriam Two years ago we lost from our working group, Dorothy Potteiger and Francis Canister. How often, in approaching new tasks, have we felt the lack of their comradeship, their willingness to help. Although they are no longer working at our side, our will to do seems strengthened by the precious memories of these, our friends. We remember the little things that count; the friendly smile, the cheery word. Keeping in mind the ideal of Service, which seemed paramount in their school lives, we have dedicated to them, each year, our Christmas baskets for the poor. We feel that this dedication is particularly significant; for Francis was ever eager to help those less fortunate, and Dorothy, more than any one else in the class, devoted her time and energy to the carrying on of this work at Christmas time.
