CARGLINE M. MURPHY T O THE minds and hearts of those of us who were once students at Washington, the withdrawal of Miss Caroline Murphy came as a definite shock. So thoroughly has she been identified with our high school life that we cannot imagine the school without her. She was the head of the English department, the director of senior activities, the teacher who taught more than a subject. This last role was, of course, the most important to the student, Grammar, outlines, and facts of literature had their place, but to Miss Murphy, instilling a correct philosophy of life, inculcating prinf ciples of right thinking were more important. She was always ready to discuss with the students their problems. When alumni revisited the school, they freely recounted their sucf cesses, their defeats-sure of her congratulations, her sympathy. We former students of Miss Murphy are, naturally, pleased that she has retired at a time when she can enjoy life and its adventures. XVe are happy to know that W'ashington's loss is so much her gain. Though others have taken over her tasks, her classes, there shall always linger the memory of a great personality. Edna Goeden, 192 5 C223
