The operators of the power house receive their orders from a board of con- trollers. They order the power house to operate or shut down. This year the school was in session for about 170 days. We were provided with the following vacations: Caruthers Fair, October 7-8, Armistice Day, Nov. ll-12, Thanksgiving and Institute, Nov. 22-26, Christmas, Dec. 24-Jan. 2. Easter, April 15, and Memorial Day, Nlay 30. The controllers give orders to the chief engineer and his stall' to throw switches sending electricity over various wires. Two hundred twenty-five students received instruction in a wide variety of subjects, two of these, applied science and office practice. being taught for the first time. We have a normal operating force of about eighteen men here at all times. In the department of power, we have the following teachers: Nliss Anderson, English, algebra, and sports, Miss Collin, music, Mr. Doane, science, Mr, Edmonson, agriculture, Nlr. Grauel, music, Bliss Nelson, liomemaking and German, Mrs. Osterhoudt. English, Spanish, and social progress, Miss Schroeter, business, Miss Zimmerman, art and history, Mr. VValker, business principles and sports, Miss Wall, vice-principal and English, Mr. NValton, principal and advanced mathematics. In addition to the department of power there is a distribution department which has charge of transporting energy back and forth. Mr. Primrose, Mr. Hansen, Dave Harder, and Mr, Kragh are the bus drivers. The well kept lawns and shrubbery and the neat classrooms show that the minds of our controllers are not entirely set on kilowatts. They have a maintenance crew consisting of Mr. Eaton, the oiler, and Dave Harder, the gardener, whose work is largely mechanical. Miss lVanda Heard is the secretary. There is an underground department which, through Mr. Martin. Ameiicanization teacher, and Sir. Gratzel, orchestra leader, provides instruction in night school classes. The truslees are always on watch, keeping an eye on the school's operation and making such adjustments as are needed to provide means for things desirable. Page 8 1 l
