Mrs. Eberly watches over her brood in the newly organ- zed Kindergarten. Only a part is shown here of the arge, well-equipped room which takes care of forty youngsters daily. lt's dinnertime!-and the young ones rush out the Broad- way door of the grade school. he graders take advantage ot the large selection ot ood books in their library. Correct reading habits earned here prepare them tor the use of the main li- brary. Student librarians are in evidence. Miss Gable, the grade school principal, has been an integral member ot our public school system for many years. Many talents are discovered which lead up to activities, in later years, along the same line. Traces of some of the compositions of our Hill- top and Lion staffs could probably be found in that noted journal, The Spyglass, a prod- uct of this period. Musical talents are discovered and put to use in the grade school choir and in learning to play musical instruments. In senior high we find evidences of these once amateurs in the glee club, band, and other organizations. 15

Chapter II OUR MENTORS IN THE FRONT ot each room there reigns a teacher, seated majestically be hind a light brown desk. This capable overseer of the schoolroom was no placed here to dictate questions to us, but to guide and instruct us. To this eno the teachers of Red Lion High have racked their brains in many institutions o learning, cramming knowledge into their heads in order to cram some into ours. ln the end success came to them as one can see by the cherished letter: behind their names. Red Lion High is proud to have such a well-trained lac ulty and administration. Do you remember those days you didn't quite get all your lessons finishe because of that movie you just had to see or the ice that maybe wouldn't b hard tomorrow? How could any teacher keep from being provoked? We nom realize that the trials and tribulations suffered by our mentors must have beer great, although at times we wondered how any one could have as many troubles as We. Their patience and helpfulness have pushed us through man tight spots. Not to any one ot them do we give the credit for our educatioli but to all. The members ot the school board, those capable men who handle th money, pay the bills, and choose the teachers, are also a group of which to b proud. Prominent in their own fields of industry and in civic life, they shar their time and energy toward making the Red Lion school system one of goo repute throughout the state. They, the teachers and administrators of Red Lion High, have worked to- gether like a team, and teams that cooperate like this one cannot tail in theil jobs. We'll never forget the important part these people have played in oui school lite. To them We give a whole-hearted tribute of well-deserved thanks
