Mr. Carter Walker Mr. Iohn S. Walker Mr. Ioseph G. Walker r 'li' ll Never before in the series of dedica- tions of the FIR TREE has the choice been more obvious or justified than that of the three men selected with reverent devotion and sincere respect by the 1948 Board. Since the founding of Woodberry Forest by their father until their present retire- ment, Mr. Carter Vlfalker, Mr. Iohn S. Walker, and Mr. Ioseph G. VValker have contributed more toward its remarkable progress than all outside interests com- bined. As members of the Staff, they formed the backbone of the School's administra- tion for over forty years, and have Won Widespread admiration as an outstanding educational family in the United States. So it is that with the passing of their regime, we the Editors Wish to take this final opportunity to express our gratitude for all that they have done for Woodberry Forest. lt is with deep regret that the School has to forego the services of these magnanimous gentlemen. As a lasting tribute, the 1948 FIR TREE is dedicated with pride to the Walker brothers, whose influence upon all who have known them will live forever in the annals of the School. 6
