SUPERINTENDENT or SCHOOLS AND BOARD OF EDUCATION N almost every city in the country, the school year just closing has been one of grave financial difficulties. It is during a year such as the present that we can best appreciate the sound financial policies of our Board of Education. ln the p2lSt, we may have felt that sometimes the Board was not as liberal as we would like to have it, but when we consider the present and realize the Freeport schools have not as yet suffered materially because of the depression, we can not help but congratulate the Board on its businesslike policies. In many school systems, teachers have not been receiving their salaries and consideration has been given to closing the schools. The Freeport schools have been kept free from such embarrassment. While we are unable to boast of improvement of the physical properties of the school system, we can point with pride to the line spirit of co-operation which ex- ists among pupils, teachers, and the members of the Board of Education. The business of the Board of Education requires much time and thought on the part of its members, and as membership on the Board is non-remunerative, we appreciate the high type of citizenship represented by those who serve. Freeport has a Board of Education in whom the people may safely place their confidence. One frequently hears suggestions as to what the Board of Education should, or should not, do. Sometimes these suggestions are ofa constructive nature, and at other times they are radical and based on inadequate or misinformation. As our Board of Education is made up of men interested in the welfare ofthe schools and with broad and successful business or professional experience, we can depend upon them to be intelligently responsive as the leaders of the most American of all our institutions- namely, the public schools.

0. L Louis MENSENKAMP FERNE KUHLEMEYER MARY MARTIN XVILLARD RUDENDALL MATHEMATICS AUSS, a famous mathematician of the nineteenth century, has called mathe- matics the queen of the sciences. The importance of this science can be clearly shown in a simple way. Suppose, for instance, that every trace of mathematics in the world were suddenly destroyed. NVhat would be the result? Immediately business would come to a standstill. Every mill would shut down, all concerns would be forced to close, ships would not be able to traverse the seas, nor airplanes the sky. The engineering world would collapse, all the mines would shut down, and trade would be practically discontinued. Mathematics has always been an integral part of astronomy, physics, engineer- ing, surveying, and other fields of a similar nature, but it is only in recent years that it has been considered important in economics, finance, education, the natural and social sciences, religion, investments, agriculture, pharmacy, chemistry, art, and medical research. There are several courses into which our mathematics department is divided. The entire course offered includes Algebra I and II the first year, Plane Geometry I and II the Sophomore year, Algebra III and Solid Geometry the third year, and Trigonometry and Algebra IV the last year. Those students taking a college pre- paratory course are required to take Algebra I and II and Plane Geometry I and II. Frequently they are advised to take more mathematics than this-especially those boys who intend to major in architectural drawing, engineering, physics, 'and other such fields. The mathematics department is composed of the following teachers: Mr. Men- senkamp, Miss Martin, Miss Kuhlemeyer, and Mr. Rubendall. Mr. Mensenkamp is the head of the department and is also the director of mental tests in which he is ably assisted by the other members of his department. I-Ie has charge of all the classes in advanced mathematics, Algebra III, Solid Geometry, Trigonometry, and Algebra IV. In addition, Mr. Mensenkamp has beginning classes in Algebra and Geometry. Beginning Algebra and Geometry are also taught by Miss Martin, Miss Kuhlemeyer, and Mr. Rubendall. We feel that -the success of this department is due to this capable staff of instructors.
