Dear Friends, lam having so much fun at B. H. S. l first met the Superintendent, Mr. Shepherd. I liked him immediately, as everyone does, for his good humor and his ability to run the school smoothly. Next came his right-hand man Mr. Shelby, the B. H. S. Principal. Things are going so well, there must not be much difiference between a bas- ketball coach and Principal-it's all team work. Among my acquaintances is Mr. Berryhill. Between the sounds of sour band notes and flat tires on the Driv- er's car, it is a wonder that his smile doesn't wear oFf. Miss Bloss spends some time in making girl athletes, and the rest in making the government known to brilliant I?l Seniors. My vision was obstructed by broad shoulders topped with red hair. This l learned was Coach Davis whose duties are to put Barnesville on the map with sports. Not only is Miss Deaver back of the Shamrock in the Enterprise, but she also teaches English Literature, American Literature, World Geography, and how to have a sense of humor. Delicious smells led me to the new Home Economics rooms. Miss Gibson, Home Economics Teacher, convinced me cooking and sewing could be fun. JACK BERRYHILL MARY IDA BLOSS B S In Ed M A A.B.

Bnaacl ' Barney was very much impressed by the importance of the work done by the Board of Education. Among its duties are: selecting teachers and other employees, determining salaries, and issuing vacations. Through its tireless efforts the construction of the new gym- nasium was begun. Many hours were spent purchasing the equipment needed. Barney is looking forward to coming back next year to see the finished product. The Board was kept busy during the summer with plans for the remodeling of the Home Economics Department and moving the principal's office upstairs. New lockers were being installed when the students returned in the fall. The Board re-elected Dr. Harvey Murphy as president, Lewis Watt as vice-president, and Henry Fiechter as clerk. phy, Lewis Watt. Standing-William Kearns, Foster Gasper Henry Fiechter.

At the central oftice I met Mrs. Gill, the school secretary. I was posi- tively amazed at the amount of work she completed each day. Of course while ioining in the activities, I decided to try out for one of the class plays. But Mrs. Goforth ,finding my voice a little gruff , suggested that I attend one of her Public Speaking or English classes. Maybe l'll have a better chance next year. Since being the outdoor type is my specialty, I went to see Mr. Kaiser, the Vo-Ag instructor. He teaches the Ag boys how to run a farm. I looked up Mr. Hobensack to help me with my income tax. I learned a lot in his business training class and bookkeeping classes. I stopped in Room 2 to see how the Senrab was coming along. Mrs. Leach was there writing a lot of wavy lines which didn't make much sense to me. Not only does she teach shorthand, but also typing. I think she did a fine iob in supervising the publication of this yearbook. Don't you? I found Miss McClung in the library dusting books. She seemed a little startled to see me and said Que es esto? Soy loco? Besides teaching Spanish and English, she is head li- brarian. If you ever develop a temperature as I once did, iust go see Mrs. Matthews, the school nurse. She'll fix you up in a iifify. It seemed that every time I pass the oFfice I see Mr. Nicholson, assistant principal, writing out excuses. He teaches General Science, Plane Geometry, General Math, and Algebra. KATHRYN S, Glll.
