She has been a constant source of assistance to anyone, either in school or in the community. Her room, a busy center of activity, readily illustrates her genuine interest in people. As she leaves us to face new challenges, the memory of her youthful attitudes and her abundant energy will remain with each of us. Mr. Slusser, now retiring after twenty-five years of dedicated service in Bement High School, has long been regarded as a most capable person. After being the superintendent for nineteen years, he became a Bement merchant for ten years; however, his love for teaching brought him back to our school, where, for the past six years he has taught mathematics. He is an outstanding teacher, patient and understanding. His firmness and wisdom have won him the respect of all who know him.
