FUNK Faculty It can be truthfully said that our school has stood with the best in scholastic achievements, athletics, and all extra-curricular activities. No small share of credit for this standing should go to the faculty members who have brought out the best characteristics of the student body. Besides the accomplishments that show up in comparing the various school systems, new ideas have been introduced to better the institution Within itself. A more orderly building and a group of students better fitted to meet the life outside the classroom have been the chief aims of the principal and instructors. -nl 5-4...-.

Superintendent L IXTEEN years of continuous service as superintendent of the Arkansas City Schools is the present record of C. E. St. John. The remodeling of every school building in the local system at remarkably low cost to the taxpayers stands out in the administration of this leader of the local educational unit. In the past year lVIr. St. John served as president of the Kansas State Teachers Association. While head of this organiza- ,,. tion, he traveled more miles on business than any former president, his work last summer taking him to almost every part of the State of Kansas. Perhaps one of the most outstanding ac- complishments of Mr. St. John's term of office was the great increase in the member- ship of the Association. More than 500 new names were added to the roll. He re- tired from office amid expressions of appre- SUPT' C- E. ST. JGHN ciation from every section of the state. board ot Education Despite the critical financial conditions prevailing throughout the entire country, the effective work of the Board of Education of Arkansas City has made it possible to re- tain the same number of instructors, and unnecessary to eliminate any of the various courses oftered to students in the past year. Through the cooperation of this group, the high standard set for the Arkansas City Schools has been maintained . Once elected to the School Board the members usually se1've several years. It is believed that the longest consecutive record for service is held by Dr. L. E. Brenz who has been a member since 1921, and is now serving his seventh year as president.
