Class Advisers A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY . .. MRS. LOUISE MICHIN 14 When Robert Treat founded Newark in 1666, he immediately set out to advise the people in important matters and to help them think more constructively. His programs were based directly upon efficiency and precise actions. Mr. Treat did not necessarily believe in mixing work with pleasure, but he did believe in working your way to pleasure. In this manner people work even harder than usual so they can enjoy their socializing more fully. Although a great deal is attributed to this great adviser, even more should be said of our senior class advisers, Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas. We made the plans and they worked with us every day to make sure our activities proved rewarding. Our Junior Prom, because of the good advice we had received proved a great success. Following that event preparations were begun on our winter dance. Once again Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas kept us going with their helpful advice. Thanks to them we gained another feather for our caps by producing another success. Because of us our advisers never l ad a moment’s rest. They were constantly busy up until a minute before graduation. We could never put into words the thanks we have for these two wonderful people. Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas, we have enjoyed working with you, as you patiently carried the burdens that accompanied our senior class. Our hearts are filled with gratitude as we say thank you to Mrs. Minchin and Mr. Nicholas. MR. DONALD NICHOLAS
