Keating has retired to the position of con- sulting superintendent to Mr. Redmond. Dr. Keating lived on a farm in Ohio where he at- tended school. He received his Doctor's Degree, however, from the University of Denver. Be- fore coming to Pueblo, Dr. Keating was super- intendent of schools in Aspen, Colorado. Imme- diately after this he was sent to Central City, Colorado, after which he came to Pueblo and obtained the position of superintendent of schools. An outstanding thing about Dr. Keat- ing is the fact that he is probably the best in- formed person on the Mold-timers of Colorado than any other individual in this locality. Miss Mary C. McNally, assistant principal, and dean of girls, started her teaching career at Central Grade from l907 until 1913. She then came to Central high in 1913 as instruc- tor of history. Miss McNally received her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Illinois, and her Master of Arts degree from the University of California. In the fall of '36 Miss McNally was made assistant principal. She has not only been counselor to the girls of Cen- tral, but has founded one of the most important girls' circles in the school, the Ciirls' Cabinet, which is a pass-word into all of Central's social activities for girls. Her development of the four year history course and the establishment of the Central Times are her achievements. Miss Mary C. McNally brings an ab- sorbing interest of girls' problems to her new job as assistant principal and adviser to Central girls. Dr. J. F. Keating continues his years of service to the District as Consult- ing Superintendent. j Cs A Page Eleven

Central's carefully planned guidance program is centered in rooms 5 and 6 where student problems are solved. To fit today's girl for tomorrow's job is a constant quest in room 5 where girls gather to confer with Miss McNally about their chances in the New Era. Here they read monographs on various vocations, consult college catalogues, study self-analysis charts, or read materials which contribute to personality development. Personal problems of a more intimate character are also discussed in this room which has been fitted up as a place for a friendly bit of counsel
