To our honored Friend and Co-worker,
Mr. Charles E. Putney.
The teachers of the High School, with the superintendent and his wife, wish to send you hearty congratulations on your birthday and the many years of usefulness that lie in its wake. They wish to emphasize their appreciation of what it means to the whole school to have in their midst a loyal old soldier, a kindly and genial friend, and a real gentleman of "the old school."
They hope this loving cup will be to you a substantial evidence of their appreciation in the past, as also of their good wishes for the future.
