In 1907 he became supervising principal, and it was In the spring of this year that the school moved Into the main building of the present high school. Gradually the number of students nicrensed, so that new buildings ere erected, followed by the girls ' gymnasium, which then served for both boys and girls, the auditorium and the aca- demic building. The last addition came In 1925, when the administra- tion building, boys ' gymnasium, and athletic field were added, Mr. Bush has made all this possible, rmd such a well known and well liked superintendent of schools is not to be found elsewhere.
