Gallagher, as superintendent of Billings School District No. 2, perhaps has the most dreams for a more populous and pros- perous school district here in Billings. Mr. Gallagher has been superintendent since 1937 and has seen the schools of Billings grow and flourish. This growth is due to a great extent to his time and efforts to better the district. To illustrate the tremendous growth of Dis- trict No. 2, statistics show that in l937 the total enrollment was 4560, while the latest record sets the total district enrollment at 71 ll students. Five new school sites were okayed by the school this year. Plans for the schools, includ- ing a new junior high, are now on the draw- ing board. Gur collective hat is off to you, Mr. Gal- lagher, and we hope your dreams are realized. 'X . Page Fix e

Prinegial Speaks Principal Iesse GQ Rcxgsdale says, Students are rarely praised for the good they do. When someone your age violates the code of good behavior, not only he but all of you pay the penalty. lt seems that this ought not to be, but the ways of people make it so. The most im- portant thing about a good character and an interesting personality is the fact that those who have built these values into their lives can absorb misdirected abuse and accusations. All of you who make us feel proud to have been your instructors are proof that the ideals of America are safe with you. Strength from with- in, kindness, a Willingness to help others, the capacity to think and the desire to be right are bulwarks against thoughtless diatribesf' PrineQUaL Deans Dream On and On Page Four Deans Give Wews Miss Gertrude Whipple, dean of girls, says, Every day is pay-day for my work with the girls in senior high. Seeing them learn to face the difficulties involved in growing up in a complicated world and Watching them become good citizens of the community compensates for all the rough sessions We have to go through together. l'm never too busy to brag just a little about our girls. Mr. Earl L. Collins, dean of boys, says, The fine quality of moral dignity and aca- demic aspiration found in the Billings Senior highschool reflects the best of traditions found in the American democratic way of life. Pupils and staff members who continually try to improve themselves and make their ef- forts more productive account for the high standing of the Billings Senior highschool. When these same pupils and staff mem- bers Work together to help each other to more significant and excellent achievement, the most ennobling experiences of life are sharedf'
