6 alUi ul Sen.uice MISS MATILDA MORLOCK With deep regret, we, of the State Teachers College at West Chester, view the retirement of Miss Matilda Morlock, who has been a member of the Music Department for twenty-three years. During her time at the college she has taught students of all four curricula, giving each group invaluable artistic interpretations and appreciations of music. To each group she has shown unique understand- ing and sincere interest, for to her each student has been a real person, not merely a name in h er roll- book. Miss Morlock ' s wide educational interests, her nice discriminations, her serene and well-balanced personality, her exact-scholastic training — gained partly in Europe and continued in the finer univer- sities of the United States — have made her a beloved person on the campus. In the extra-curricular activities of the college as well as in her classroom, has Miss Morlock ' s quiet forcefulness been felt. During one summer she acted as an efficient dean of women. She has contributed her help and advice to the Girls ' Day Student Council and to the Young Women ' s Christian Association. As adviser to the present junior class she has been untiring, encouraging, inspirational. With deep appreciation and with sincere hopes for her happiness, the Class of 1951 wishes Miss Morlock Godspeed.

Miss EHerforth was born in Austria, where she received part of her professional training. She also studied in France. During these years she devoted her time not only to the study of music, but also to the study of languages. Miss Herforth ' s contributions to the college have not been limited to musical activities only. She was a capable and sincere adviser to the Class of 1947. An ardent traveler. Miss FHerforth plans to continue her travels and to further her hobby, the study of languages. The Class of 1951 thanks Miss FHerforth for her many contributions to the cultural life of the college and wishes her many years of happiness.
