The City Hall right across from the Opera House is the center of every- thing in Our School. There the city clerks are busy working under the direction of Mayor Balzer. The Post Office is there, too. Mayor Balzer is really chief, executor, legislator, and judiciary all in one. CWe,re also call- ing him our production manager, as on the stage, you know.J In the inner office is his bench. He doesn't sit there, but the citizens do. The only bench he sits on is the one on the football field. . . . Cur Mayor couldn't do all the administrative work in Our School, so the aldermen do their part along with supervising the workshops. Mr. Burling helps, too. He's a mighty im- portant man around Our School, because he,s Mr. Balzer's right-hand rnan. The City Hall has branches in the First Ward, and Mr. Burling as circuit judge holds his court there. Come to think of it, he's also warden of our jail. Next door to his office sits the Common Council. Across the street is the Second Hand Store, and farther down in one direction is our factory section and in the other direc- tion our business district and General Store .... Below the First Ward in the lower section of Our School are the playgrounds and the cafes .... Farther uptown at the north end of the Third Ward is our hospital. Also in the Third Ward is our branch library of fiction books .... The buildings along the Fourth Ward to the south are known as our research labs. The other half of the Fourth Ward is our cultural center, where the artists and musicians make their headquarters. The main Art Gallery is there, but of course there are branches on other streets. And way down at the end of the street are the Model Homes and Fashion Colony. Above all this, the Penthouse Music Hall is the crowning glory of Our School. BEVERLY B. BURLING Vice-Principal

GEORGE BAZLER, Principal Our School is like a small town. Each floor is a Ward with rows of residences and workshops along its streets. In the Second Ward We have our civic center with the City Hall, Library and Public Service departments, Opera House, and Jail. Four of our Hve Warehouses are in the Second Wfard, too. QOur study halls are called Ware- houses because that's Where the citizens go in and load up.j Along the main thoroughfare dividing the various Wards you will iind the Museum, which houses our trophies.
