Walter H. Donahue
To Mr. Donahue:
In an effort to express our deep appreciation for your friendship, patience, and good humor, we are dedicating this issue of the Echo to you. In your capacity as head of the bookkeeping department, as school treasurer, and as Acting Submaster during Mr. Duphn's absence, you have performed many services indispensable to us throughout our school career, "getting things done" quickly and quietly. You have been a faithful teacher as well, bringing not only practical knowledge, but also enjoyment and fun to your classes.
To you we say, "Thank you."
Sincerely,
The Class of 1948 |

You have supervised our activities, and have played an important part in the shaping of our lives. Because of your able guidance we go out into the world as better citizens.

We take great pleasure in dedicating this yearbook of the class of 1944-1945 to Miss Florence C. Wilder for her invaluable service in helping in the preparation of this yearbook; for her friendly, advisory attitude toward all; for her "get-it-done" attitude which has set a good example for all students; and for her exemplification of the real meaning of the word "teacher." |

To Miss Willard:
In "The Making of Americans," you have played a leading role. You have done all in your power to have us reach our goal as accomplished representatives of the public school system. Similarly, Winthrop students of the past thirty-three years have had the benefits of your wisdom and liberal ideas. You have made our school your school. Therefore, to express our admiration and gratitude, we would like to nuike this your book.
Appreciatively,
The Class of '44 |

We, the class of 1943, dedicate this yearbook to all of you who have entered Uncle Sam's service. Wherever you may be -- on convoy duty in the North Atlantic, flying bombers over Berlin, in a foxhole on Guadalcanal, or marching in North Africa -- we hope that this memento of our senior year will attest to the fact that we, too, are contributing our small part to the war effort. Evidence of changes in our school curriculum are found in the Victory Corps, the science and navigation courses, and the generally accelerated program. Yet, we are holding the torch of democracy high so that when you return it will be to a better world where the four freedoms -- freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from fear, and freedom from want -- will be the reward of your victory. |

Orrin C. Davis
Principal
Mr. Davis:
During the many years of our friendship with you, every one of us has been affected by some aspect of your personality. As in turn you have assumed the role of teacher, disciplinarian, and principal, we have grown to appreciate you as a sincere friend and a "square-shooter."
You have never demanded the impossible of us; you have never hesitated to praise when success crowned our efforts; you have respected our opinions; you have stood ever ready to help.
We feel our indebtedness to you. There can be no repayment but in an exchange of that same currency which you offer so readily -- affection.
To you, then, in all sincerity, we dedicate this book, that we may in some measure show our gratitude and appreciation.

For fifteen years your coaching and teaching have instilled sportsmanship and character into not only the teams of Winthrop High School, but also the school as a whole. It is
this character building, more than the athletic successes of the teams, which stands foremost among your accomplishments in Winthrop High School, which is as it should be. And it is this character building which already has given and will continue to give both the students and the community at large occasion to be grateful, Mr. Perry. That it may be in the future one of the pleasantest echoes that roll back to you, and that it may serve as a tangible expression of our affection and gratitude, we dedicate this 1941 ECHO to you. |
