Elrarhera in ihr High Svrhnnl Cilirnm tlis Svtuhentn Stanhpnintb R. HARDING, our principal and teacher of English m and Mfrimthenilatics, aslknogvn by thle sgltudeints is a a g strict iscip inarian, ut eing at t e isa vantage of holding two positions, and having but the one self order, is not maintained all the time. When he is away the students are like mice when the cat is away, and, still he abhors the sight of play so much, that the mice were relieved of the hazardous job of annexing a belt to him, for he never fails when approaching the class-room door to announce his coming by his feet. Mr. Harding excels so as an English teacher that it is said of him that he makes a dry book burst its cover with springs of interest. Mr. Flanagan, our dear elf and teacher of Latin, French, Greek, History and Physics, though he has been with us but one year, has developed into a handsome young man. C Ask the girls to describe his eyesj. He has aiorded us many half hours staying in, for which, with grateful acknowledgements, we offer our thanks. Mr. Randolph, Principal of the South School and teacher of the ninth grade, has always given us help with which to get out of our difficulties, and the same kind dis- position is showing out in his little son, for on April's firsl day last year, when some of us ran away from school and were very much worried over what our penalty would be, we found the next day to our great surprise that we were excused from punishment in honor of Mr. Randolph's lately arrived. While in Mr. Randolph's room We first met Uncle Julius Caesar, nearly all of us were greatly em- barrassed, but by the end of the year there were very few who had not made friends with him. The fact that so many of us made good friends with Uncle Julius is due to the excellent ability of the instructor. Mr. Keesler, our teacher of music, is doing a most joyful work in the High School, but unlike the grasshopper who sings all summer Mr. Keesler sings all winter. Last, but not least, comes Mr. Walker, for he is the tallest man in the building. His position is that of Janitor, and is expert in his line. At our first sight of him we de- cided to behave when he is about, for judging by his ap- pearance we took him to be a prominent school commis- sioner. 8 M. E. B.
