1 l .---...Y V A , Fred B. Davis Chas. B, Hun-rbleby A. Harden Coon J. Henri' P001 Dr. A. W. Grover Arthur Powell Samuel Rileigh David Saves TO the men on the Board of Educa- tion falls the task of directing edu- cation in the public schools in our community. Their duty is to author- ize the purchase of school supplies, the hiring of teachers, and the main- tenance and repair of borough school buildings. In the present crisis our School Board has shown its willingness to help in the war effort in various ways: commando training is being given in the boys Physical Education work, our curriculum has become more intense, and new courses have been added to those already scheduled. mbzis tration MR. GOLDEN Principal P. A. Golden certainly needs no introduction, especially to students. He has always been a high- class, even-tempered school executive with ability for this trying, full-time job. No senior or any other student with a problem has been turned away by Mr. Golden without a careful, cour- teous analysis of the matter in hand. ir if MR. KENNEDY Mr. Kennedy, superintendent of our school system, is doing a creditable job. He has made some improvements and changes for the better and has already endeared himself to the facul- ty and students with his ready wit and charming personality. In these times of stress, and with our beloved country at war, the task that has been put before Mr. Kennedy is more diffi- cult than ever, but we are sure our new superintendent is perfectly able to cope with the situation. He came here from Columbia, Pennsylvania, with an enviable reputation which he will certainly sustain in our midst. MR. P. A. GOLDEN MR. JOHN B. KENNEDY

But figures represent something we cannot have too much of in our present swil't-moving world. Kingston lligh School olfers an excellent mathematics course and Mr. Piccone leads the department elfic1ently. Today mathematics is a must for many important lields. Among these are science, engineering, aeronautics and precision tool-making. Too, mathematics is used et- tensively in the Army and Navy. In fact, there are count- less vocations in which mathematics plays an essential part. lncidentally, you girls who wish to become nurses, had better study your math , for it is a necessity in the nursing profession. HISTORY DEPARTMI-:NT Seated lleft to rightl Mrs. Schulz, Miss Dooley, Miss I'rice. Standing-Mr. Brenner. Mr. Anthony, Mr. Bennett, Mr. J. Jones. Mr. Boyer. SOCIAL SCIENCE THl'l Social Science Department, ably headed by Mr. James Jones, is one of the most important divisions ot' our high school. It includes the study of Ancient, World, Modern, and American History, Civics, and llrob- lems of Democracy. The study of these subjects covers the events from the beginning of time to the very moment in which we live and in times like these, social studies can- not be stressed too strongly. The department, this year, took charge of the Lincoln Day Chapel program. The entertainment was a motion picture which depicted the value of the Civil War. It was entitled Dixie , and showed the hardships of our own people in those trying times. lt was well received and appreciated by the student body. ARTS DEPARTMENT Mr. Ilalloclv. Miss Edwards, Mr. Keeler. Miss liitchner lVli:-s M. VVilliams, Miss Hush, Mrs. Reynolds A RT UEFA KTM ENT Tlllfl Art Department, headed by Miss Edwards, has prov- en itself essential to our high school. Art is not only a cultural subject, but in these times, a subject vital to our war eflort. M USIC DEPARTMENT 'I'Hl'I Music Department has done much to brighten our school, particularly our chapel programs, with the de- lightful entertainment provided by Mr. Berry's Glee Club and Mr. Hallock's Hand. LIBRARY DEPARTMENT Tlllfl Library Department, ably headed by our new librar- ian, Miss Myre Williams and assisted by Mrs. Reynolds, stands out as a department which brings help and pleasure to all.

This is done by giving them a care- tully selected course in gymnastics and athletics, including baskletball, volleyball, wrestling, badminton, football and trac . HOME ECONOMICS 'l'1-IKOUGHOUT the year the Home Economics Depart- ment stresses the importance of home management and ot' keeping our families well and happy. SHOP M Y visit to our Shop proved to be most interesting and educational. Mr. Keefer, a most capable instructor, is indeed proud of the fine equipment and of the achieve- ments of our students.
