FH EU HU "They Serve Best . . . The American educational system is a boon to the nation and its people. From the early days of the little red school house and the three R's it has expanded and grown, until today we have compulsory education for all the children of the nation. Yet this organi- zation would be of little value without the teachers it embodies. They are men and women with a great vision who are capable of firing the imagination of youth with the yet unexplored possi- bilities of science. They spend their time and effort in building an intelli- gent generation for the future with a knowledge of the past, in stimulating the ambitions of the students, and in instilling in the minds and hearts of their pupils a love for democratic ideals -good sportsmanship, equality, and freedom. To the teachers of Ottawa Hills, the students owe appreciation for all that has been done for them. The time, effort, and knowledge that the instruc- tors have given so freely to aid them - not only in academic work, but in other activities as well- is but a symbol of the teachers' devotion to the ideals of America and to mankind, whom they are serving by building the citizens of tomorrow. They serve best-who serve mankind.

,K as No f'Lazy-bones" Here These teachers busy with school work'every minute of the day still tind time to sponsor clubs and take an active part in professional organiza- tions, such as the Grand Rapids Teachers' Club, of which Mr. Giddings is president. When there are drives to sell more defense stamps, donate books for the USO, or contribute to the Red Cross, it is the teachers who help. And one rarely sees Miss Caldwell without her Red Cross knitting. Nevertheless, the teachers are seen at plays and games, cheering and as "full 0' pep" as any student. I. Thrills. Miss Baloyan is keeping up the Ottawa school spirit. 2. Anticipation. After years of coaching, Lud still watches each game with interest. 3. Leisure hours. Miss Krzyminski takes time out to help with the hobby show. 4. Mid-year exams. They're over for the stu- dents. but not for Mr. Vander Ploeg. 5. Bidding farewell to a senior.
