. HDHIIHISTRHTICH MISS GENEVIEVE ASHDOWN MR. O. V. SHAFFER B. S., Knox College. B. S., Westminster College. M. S., University of Illinois. The success of any school is to a great extent due to the efficiency of its administrators. In this re- spect, Princeton is exceptionally fortunate. Mr. O. V. Shaffer, our capable principal, is a graduate of Westminster College, New Wilmington, Pennsylvania. He came to Princeton in 1920, and after teaching science here for two years, he went to Oak Park, Illinois. He returned to Princeton in 1924 to serve as principal of the high school. Admired by faculty and students alike, Mr. Shaffer not only administers the affairs of the school efficiently, but also teaches a class in psychology, attends numerous county and state educational meet- ings, and takes part in many civic affairs. In spite of this full schedule, he is never too busy to advise students personally concerning choice of course or plans after graduation. Miss Ashdown is another faculty member who merits a great deal of the credit for the efficiency of the school. Besides serving as dean of girls, she sponsors the Hi-Tri, advises the honor societies, and teaches classes in algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Always willing to help students with their prob- lems, Miss Ashdown deserves and receives the admiration and respect of every student. E91

BOHRD OF EDUCHTIOH . This year is a landmark in the history of our Board of Education, for the two members who have served the school longest have resigned their positions. Dr. O. lilint, who has served since 1911, and Guy A. Bryant are the retiring members. Dr. Flint, the longest in the service of the school, is a friend to all who know him. A graduate of the class of '88, he is interested in all school activities and is concerned with our health and the training of our minds. Mr. Bryant, a graduate of the class of '86, is largely responsible for the beauty of our campus and for that of our athletic field which bears his name. Because of his keen interest in school and in civic activities, his name is known to many. The three other members of our Board of Education are Miss Mary L. Uthoff, the only woman member of the Board, Mr. john S. Skinner, and Mr. David Pamp. Miss Uthoff, a graduate of the Class of '02, is the newest member of the Board and is well quali- fied for her position. Having always been interested in school life, she has taught in the Lincoln School of Princeton and more recently has served as Superintendent of Schools for Bureau County. Mr. Skinner, a member of the Class of '04, is clerk of the board. Upon him fall the duties of over- seer of finances for our school. In Mr. Skinner, the school finds a man willing to help in all ways possible. Mr. Pamp, although not a graduate of the school, is none the less interested in all school functions. He shares with Miss Uthoff the duty of presenting the diplomas to the graduating classes of Princeton Township High School. For their interest in school activities, for the maintenance of our beautiful building, for the high standards of our school, for the pleasant hours spent acquiring our high school education-for all these things we wish to thank this group of civic minded Princetonians who have served us, the American Youth, by giving of their time and talents that we may become better citizens for our community, state, and nation. DR. O. J. FLINT MR. JOHN S. SKINNER MISS MARY UTHOFF MR. GUY A. BRYANT MR. D. E. PAMP E81
