NAVIGATORS The navigators whom we know as the counselor, registrar, secretary, and the faculty chart our course through four years of secondary education. Sometimes it is hard to take their advice, especially when we are flying blind, but they have had years of experience in navigation. Many a trainer cub and a flying f ortress, too, they have guided through storms. Miss Minnie Dingee, counselor, checks each student ' s pro- gram to see that he will have the required credits for gradua- tion. She arranges changes in programs and helps pupils get part-time work. Miss Dingee works especially with the seniors to insure their graduation and to arrange for some of them to take examinations for scholarships to colleges and universities. Miss Ruth Robinson and Miss Helen Wilkin, registrar and secretary respectively, handle the routine office work which keeps the machinery of the school working smoothly. Who can say just what teachers do for their students? Cer- tainly more than merely instructing them in what the books say. Perhaps it could be said that they, more than any others, instill the fundamentals of democracy in the next presidents, mayors, lawyers, stenographers, mothers, and fathers. What high school student has not heard his parents mention par- ticular teachers from whom they learned worthwhile lessons which have guided them through the years? Teachers are to be praised for their patience, perseverance, and faith in their pupils and in their abilities. They have taught them to temper the more serious things they learn in school with a keen sense of humor and bind the whole together with good sportsmanship and with love for fellowmen. lO
