The Henry W. Stilwell Memorial, a residence for retired teachers of Texas, will be dedicated Sunday afternoon, November 29, at 2 p.m. The dedication will be in the Memorial Residence at Lake Air Center, Waco, Texas.
The Memorial Residence was erected in honor of the late Henry W. Stilwell, President of Texarkana College from its founding in 1927 until his death November 29, 1959.
Dr. Stilwell, for a long time the chairman of the Legislative Committee of the Texas State Teachers Association, was highly respected and loved by the teachers of Texas, and during the latter part of his life he was often referred to as Mr. Education in Texas.
An invitation for Texas Teachers to attend the dedication service on November 29 has been sent to all educational institutions throughout the state from the Board of Directors of the Memorial Residence.
