ELLA PI-IELPS Since the early days of our school, the name of Miss Ella Phelps has been identified with worthwhile movements in the development of Washington High School. Catching the spirit of an inspiring new school in 191 S , she gave her wholehearted support to its growth and rapid progress in the community .... After assisting in the training of Philomathean debaters for seven years, she organized the Junior Literary Society, where she inspired young orators .for seven more years -until the doors of Washington Were closed to freshmen. Later she was associated with the Girls' Club, where her philanthropic spirit sought an outlet, for another seven years. . . . Gifted with a sense of humor and a radiant mind, Miss Phelps brought to her English classes a keen analysis of everyday problems and a lofty appreciation for aesthetic values .... Thoroughly in love with youth and with life, she gave and gave generously of her time, her counsel, her love, her spirit .... Her retirement has left W a place at Washington no other can fill. CARRIE BRCDWN Serve and thou shalt be served. If you love and serve men, you cannot, by any hiding or stratagem, escape the remuneration. Emerson. Asking no remuneration but the privilege of serving day after day, Miss Carrie Brown has won the admiration and the respect of hundreds of Washingtonians .... Throughout the long years of her service in the- Commercial Department, Miss Brown has been ever faithful, gentle, kind-always willing to stay for that extra page in typing or help some puzzled brain over the kinks and quirks in shorthand .... What greater or better gift. can we offer the republic than to teach and instruct our youth? So spoke Cicero once - and so might she have spoken .... Yes, Miss Brown, 'tis time for you to be served - to accept the remuneration, the satis- faction of knowing that Washington is grateful. 18
