OUR GUIDE Supervising-principal Bctrner . Mr. Iiartter has been supervisor ol' Brownsville Borough School District since lllkll. During that little the overcrowd- ing at senior high school was solved by the moving ol' the general cottrse to tlte Annex or Sc cond XVard Building. Now having passed tlte peak ol' stttdent enrolltnent and tlte in- creased nttntbet' ol' withdrawals into tlte armed service and industry ottr entire student body is again under one rool. Mr. Barnet is at gradttate ol' Ktttztown Normal School, receiving ltis li. S. at Muhlenberg College attd his M. S. at the University of Pittslattrglt. Before coming to Brownsville, he served in Perry 'l'ownship and Calilornizt Borough as supervising principal. He is very active in church and com- munity service organizations. Raymond T' Barnet lltning scltool hours, nearly all his tinte is devoted toward bettering ottr educational fa- cilities, and his sincere interest in the student and his problems is appreciated by the en- tirc stttdent body. 'l'his year in particttlar he has laced the very vexing probletn ol' maintaining a complete stall' ol' teachers. 'l'here have been very few days in the entire term when all teachers were present, because illness, travel conditions, selective service, and competition with higher wages in industry, intervened. But despite these handicaps, classes have remainetl in session, evcn when he had to teach them himsell. 'l'l1is necessitated extra work alter school hours. so Mr. Barnet' is serving school and community botlt day and night, setting tlte example for tlte scltool to lollow which lte expresses in this message to tlte student body: To llll' SI1t111'nI Body Your school days will lim' f1n'1'r11'r in your IIIl'1I1Ul'lf'S. liven llllillgll you 11t'1' still in your l1'1'ns you lllltfl' 1II7Y'IIll3l 111,171 1'11II1'1l upon to s1'r1'1'.
