Classen can boast no more able administrator, nor can its students have a more loyal friend, than Mr. Taylor. MR. W. H. TAYLOR Principal MR. LLOYD ESTES Vice Principal iv MRS.

CLINIC Nosebleeds and skinned knees, cut fingers and head- aches, it's all in Il day's work for the clinic staff. Student aids not only learn the fund- amentals of first aid, but they also render a service to their friends. The clinic is equipped with three beds and a medi- cine cabinet full of non-pre- scription medicines, plus safety pins, needles and thread. LIBRARY It takes a competent librarian and several student helpers to keep the book traffic flowing smoothly. Students like the feeling of responsibility that goes with caring for the school's many valuable books, and they also receive their first lessons in library science.
