Class of 1892

In February Charley Noyes retired as assistant superintendent of schools in Nashua, N. H. We of the class know how well deserved is the following editorial from a Nashua paper:

"Service of forty-five years in Nashua's public schools on the part of Assistant Superintendent Charles H. Noyes, who has just filed his resignation, is deserving of marked public recognition. To span a half century of service in any line is an achievement of outstanding note; in the case of Mr. Noyes it has been graced with unusual ability and efficiency, of love for his work, a kindliness and conscientiousness which has not been exceeded by anyone who has ever been a member of the Nashua public school staff.

"Mr. Noyes came to Nashua in the early nineties as submaster at the Nashua High School. Under the late Lemuel S. Hastings, principal of the high school, his assignment during his first years there was as teacher of the classes in chemistry. For a time he and Mr. Hastings were the only two men teachers on the high school staff. He was named principal of the high school in 1907, serving in that capacity for a period of thirteen years, and since that time has served as superintendent and assistant superintendent of the school system.

"Regiments of boys and girls have passed under his kindly discipline, have profited by his ability to impart enthusiasm for the study of whatever subject he has taught, and have carried into their manhood and womanhood something of the attributes of earnestness of purpose and character which he has imparted."
