MR. C. A. DONEHOO Superintendent of Gadsden City Schools Gadsden was established as a sepa- rate school district in 1889. Today it has one of the most efficient educational sys- tems in the South. Mr. C. A. Donehoo took up the work of Gadsden's Superin- tendent of Education in 1922. Two years later, he began the highly favorable bud- get system in the high school in place of the former tuition method. By this and other means, Supt. Donehoo has greatly increased the efficiency of the city schools. The educational progress is indicated by the changes in the buildings them- selves. When Supt. Donehoo took over his position, there were five small schools; at present there are nineteen modern schools with approximately 10,000 stu- dents. 7lie A D M MR. H. I.

MR. HARRY W. HAMME AND MISS JEWELL WHATLEY The advisors for our school annual are never quite given enough credit for the wonderful job they do toward bringing the publication to the stu- dents. They are always ready with a helping hand; they carry the load of worry and anxiety, yet always have a kind smile and words of encour- agement when the going gets tough. They realize that the school publica- tions are works of, by, and for the students. Therefore, they urge us to use our own ideas and gently offer suggestions and advice for their im- provement. For their thoughtfulness, kindness, and never-ceasing assistance and encouragement, we sincerely dedicate this 1950 CRUCIBLE to Miss Jewell Whatley and Mr. Harry W. Hamme. Page 5

The school system was first operated by the city council but this method was changed in 1895 when the legislative act was amended to provide for a Board of Education composed of five members. The present board members, as well as their predecessors, have spent many hours in untiring efforts to maintain the high standard which the school system has at- tained. Gadsden has made remarkable prog- ress in the past and has hopes for even greater achievements in the future. Under the capable management of our Adminis- tration, we feel sure that these hopes will soon materialize into the best educational system to be found. MR. D. C.
