It is the Administration which makes the Wheels go around and the plant run smoothly. It is with great pride that the students of Beaver High School point to the successful operation of their school during the school year of 1939-1940. And they feel that the success was due largely to the eiiiciency of the board, superinten- dents, and principles, because it was in their hands that the management and maintain- ance was placed. C. W. JACKSON, Principal 8.

OB May I have a slip to class? . . .But, Mr. Bolen, my family knew that I was absent yesterday. . . . Something told me that I should have stayed in school! These are only a few of the remarks which can be heard at any time in the office on the first floor. In the main office lVlrs. lfrancis, our sec- retary, reigns supreme. Her oflice is a busy place for she has the affairs of more than a thousand students to handle, not to men- tion the correspondence, the attendance which must be checked each day, and count- less other duties. Probably no other oflice has ever gained notoriety so quickly as has the small ollice to the right of M1'. Jackson's. Here Mr. Bolen sympathetically helps the boys and girls solve their problems. He is always willing to confer wisely and graciously with those who are in need of advice. Constituting the machinery by which our won-ldl' at Beaver is governed, we have always found these oflices ready to assist our every need. ecwaz cgiczfioof H. H.
