Administration l lElVlBlERS OIT THE BOARD OF EDUCA- TION are: C. VV. Taylor, presidentg S. R. llcller. vice-presidentg Howard Keel, Olin Strowig. W. C. Grigg, and Dr. H. H. Bennet. These men are conservative, they are aware of the im- portance of education and they give unstintingly of their time and effort in behalf of the schools and of the taxpayers. At the August meeting of 1925, the board adopted the policy of retiring the bonded indebtedness, which then amounted to fl1SII3,OOO, to pay all current expenses in cash, and gradually to reduce school costs. Since that time, the board has reduced the F. C. GARDNER Superintendent K. S. T. C., Emporia iLife Certifieatej University of Kansas, A. B. , Columbia University, A. M. MARVIN VAN OSDOL Principal K.

School costs have been reduced, although, for the past few years, valuations have diminished almost as rapidly as reductions have been made. The tax levy has been lowered and will no doubt, be further lowered as the bonded debt is paid off., The schools have been constantly improved both as to physical plant and as to scholarship. Exten- sive repairs have been made in all buildings. Schol- arship and student activities are of highest stand- ing. Co-operation and good-will among parents, pupils, and teachers are outstanding characteristics of the Abilene Schools. Board of Education C. W. Taylor, Pres. Dr. H. H. Bennett Howard Keel W. C.
