We feel that Mrs. Enochs is most deserving of this honor, and we make this dedication as partial recognition for her years of untiring and conscientious service to the people of this community through the medium of the Van Alstyne Public School. Mrs. Enochs' years of service began in 1907. With the exception of two years' time, she has taught continuously in the Van Alstyne Schools. We are very happy to be able to show our appreciation for her many years of service. 4 MR. J.O. STERLING MR. A. A. EDWARDS MR. W. W. BLASS INGA ME Board Members DR. F.M. SPORER MR. STONE MARSHALL.
