Startled by this uncalled-fort interrup- tion, he looked up, and nod- ded his head toward a chair, indicating that we l MR. L. L. CALDWELL, Superintendent of Schools should sit down and wait. Then he again took up his ex- amination. Suddenly we heard a pleasant voice floating in our direction. Very interesting, very! it exclaimed. We fixed an inquiring look and he continued- A new piece for my rock garden. Unless you have some information on rocks, you can have only three minutes, said this busy executive. Two and a half will be sufficient, we answered. We wish to know all about the Board of Education. Our friend of the stones cleared his throat, adjusted his neck-tie, and began. Well, there are three members: H. J. Gescheidler, presidentg Dr. McVey, treasurer, and R. G. Arner, secre- tary. They are elected by the city council for a period of three years, a new one entering, an old one- leaving each year. They meet once a week to take up the financial and administrative problems of the schools. They are the supreme authority on schools and are responsible for all appropriations and build- ing. Having ended this, he again picked up his speci- men and we could tell we were dismissed. With promises to send any queer rocks We happened to meet, we strode through the door and again breathed freely. 44 51'-I1 ' - 'f- it QV? -'E if ' '- . . 'W-412 .,,,3,: .3 u In .,.,.- jf.-. .

wwi-ef-- - Our Administrators ...,1,47 WHO supervises our school? Very few of us would fail to answer this question, although there might be several different answers according to the following pages. From the Board of Education down to our own association, each division has its definite part to play in the administration of school affairs. Our method of student government, when compared with the schools of a generation ago, is significant of the progress which our school has made.

Faculty WE have a Very interesting faculty whose members come from a great many different schools of .higher edu- cation. Mr. Rupp and Mr. Cook are loyal supporters of Oberlin College, and Mr. Keeler joins the ranks from the Buckeye State, having been grad- uated from Ohio State University. Mr. Spohn and Miss Pritchard have Earlham as their Alma Mater, and Mrs. Barnes continually sings the praises of Middlebury. Mr. Garrett and Mr. Hays believe Purdue is the finest school in the land, but Miss Exley is overjoyed at Michigan's Big Ten Football Championship. Miss H. McCullough and Miss Burhans are for Western one hundred per cent, but Miss Williams proudly displays the red and white banner of Deni- son as her favorite color combi- nation. The other day we believe we heard the strains of Iowa from Room 7, where Miss Thomas, along with the Misses Cain, Reed, and Heiner, also from the corn state, lustily sang behind closed doors. The Misses White, Gustafson, and Philippe peered in, but we heard the remark as they walked away, Iowa schools are very fine, but no college can sur- pas DePauw. 'tOn Wisconsinn is the password to interesting stories of college life told by Miss Buck and Miss Kirby, but Miss Van Doorninck says her stories about Central are much more fascinating. I recommend Wabash as a fine school, both for its courses of study and its activities, declared Mr. Huffineg but Mr. Campbell inter- rupted his speech with, Why, Franklin is a much better school. Let me tell you about--. Here Mr. Wilson began a lengthy account of his years at Westminster, but was A W 1-Y .,. TOP RONV: Miss Allman, Miss Anderson, Mrs. Ba M M- V? ' f, Beyer, Miss Bollenbach.
