This - musical comedy is "based on the life of Gypsy Rose Lee and was very well received by the group. the climax of the evening came when Miss Genevieve Knox, who is retiring this spring, was crowned "Queen of the Faculty" by Leta Clark and presented with a beautiful spray of red and white carnations by Carolyn Bauer. The standing ovation and applause given her at that time was an indication of the love and respect her fellow teachers have for her. Mrs. Stella Rortvet, chairman and mistress of ceremonies. then gave an interesting and humorous account of incidents in Miss Knox's life, with special emphasis, on events during her many years of teaching and the contributions she has made not only to the education cf the children of this community but also her constant efforts toward professional advancement. Miss Knox was presented with a beautiful charm bracelet in appreciation of her many years of service as an instructor in the L a n d m a r k a n d E d g e b r o o k schools. On each heart was inscribed the name of one of the twelve teachers still teaching here, who had taught with Miss Knox for twelve years or longer. These included Eleanor Foley. Carolyn Bauer, Lenore Cooley, Nellie Doherty, Velma Douglas, Laura Ferwerda, Aileen Claybaugh, Dorothy Gibbs, Ruth Mead, Arlene Pearson, Mildred Reese and Asst. Supt. M. L. Schoenholtz.

Miss Knox, who began her teaching career in 1915, has been a member of School District 15 faculty since 1929 and is at present teaching the first grade at Edgebrook. It would be difficult to estimate the number of first grade children whom she has introduced to the "Three R's" during this time, but her years of untiring patience and devotion to her profession and her pupils have now earned for her a long and happy retirement.
