A girl's best friend- is Miss Vera Eger if she is a junior high girl. Ener- getic and inspiring, she makes the junior high life seem more attractive to all by the interest she herself shows in it. Her quick step, crisp speech, and helpful words have made her one of the favorite junior high teachers. Besides her teaching and work as dean, Miss Eger is also active in Junior Red Cross, and she has stim- ulated her students to a like interest. However, regardless of her many activ- ities, Miss.Eger always has time to be a true counselor to her girls. MR. THOMAS BEN DER JUNIOR HIGH DEANS MISS VERA EGER Mr. Tommy Bender has been dean of junior high boys for only one year, but- already they have found him not only a good athletic coach but a good coach in the matter of junior high problems. The boys have found him to have the hand of steel in the vel- vet glove when they-find cause to arouse his ire. But he is always fair. Everyone recognizes his sense of humor and the wonderful energy which have made him an invaluable aid in helping junior high students to become good citizens of Fostoria High.

SENIOR HIGH DEANS MISS MABEL J. BOURQUIN When a feller needs a friend- he can always turn to the boys' dean, Mr. W. W. Nixon, for guidance and straight from the shouIder advice. You will always find Mr. Nixon busy at something though never too busy to listen to the problems of the day. He is always on hand, tirelessly work- ing on thigh school athletics and the many problems which the senior high boys bring to him. Miss Mabel J. Bourquin is the living exponent of a friend in need, is ci friend indeed. She is always ready with kind, practical suggestions and friendly interest to help the senior high girls over the many stumbling blocks which find their way into the school and social life. Yet, when the girls find themselves becoming lax in any way, Miss Bourquin is right at hand to jog the memory with a few well-chosen words of wisdom. Always kind in her criticism, benevolent, and with a sense of hu- mor here unequalled, she is truly valuable as an instructor and C1 friend. MR. W. W. NIXON

Many of its members have been part of the power behind the power through many years, and all are there to help make school life smoother for faculty and students alike. The next time you feel the urge to complain about some minor detail, give a thought to the Board of Education and the fact that they are doing their best and we must cooperate. ' The school board gets no pay and very little recognition, so let's give three cheers now and then for the work they are carrying out. I0
