Gillham BOARD OF EDUCA TION Behind all progress and activities of our school is a group of people whose work is often too easily slighted. This group is our Board of Education. Through this board we have obtained, along with many other things, the new addition to E. H. S. It is very evident that this organiaztion is composed of people who know the feelings and understand the activities of high school students. We are grateful to the Board for the benefits we received from it and hope they have just as many more successful years as they have had. This year also marks the retirement of Mr. Bollman, who has served on the Board of Education for twenty-four years. Everyone appreciates the work he has done on the Board and we all pay our respects and give our best wishes to him. 9

SUPERINTENDENT. MR. ALEXANDER PRINCIPAL. MR. BLOOGETT ADMINISTRATION Our school is like a pump, constantly pumping education. Mr. Alexander, as Superintendent, sees that education flows forth in a steady stream; not only here, incidently, but also in the other Public Schools of Edwardsville. And while wondering where he will get money for another school improvement, he usually is brightening our halls with his friendly smile. Mr. Blodgett pays special attention to the quality of the education that flows forth. If the general policy of the school needs to be altered in any way, he sees that it is altered. He is the teacher’s teacher. One must admit that he has perhaps the most difficult job in our school. Mr. Love is watcher of the boys; and at the same time their friend and counselor. He is our Dean of Boys and the Vice-principal. Every boy knows him personally, for what boy hasn’t paid him a visit in his little office? And no one can say that the flow of the stream of education has ever slackened on his account. Miss Sloan, Dean of Girls, sees that the girls come daily to get their share of education. She is their friend and helper. The girls “beat a path’’ to her door in her fine new office in the addition; this is her first year in her richly deserved office. 8

Take your hats off to them because they really tackled a job! Even though it is hard to believe, judging by the action of the students, everyone is grateful to them. Students, just think what a dreary place old E. H. S. would be if it weren’t for Mr. Love’s never-failing greeting, Miss Sloan’s cheery smile, or Mr. Allen’s chuckle as he fires a tough Bookkeeping test 10
