Cleveland High has always been for- tunate in having an able man at her head. For five years our school advanced hap- pily under the leadership of Mr. Hoch. Now Cleveland is no less fortunate in securing Mr. John Maddox, for prin- cipal. The organization of the Grover Cleve- land High School was a remarkable piece of work. Mr. Hoch took a faculty made up from the various high schools of the city and a student body similarly gath- ered and laid the foundation of a great institution. The co-operation that was secured from those associated with him became the heart of a vital, forceful ten- dency which we call Cleveland Spirit. Mr. Maddox, therefore, finds in Cleve- land High a school admirably suited to his democratic principles. As is true of all St. Louis high schools, Cleveland has the composition of a university, there be- ing departments of English, Language, Manual Training, Art, Domestic Science, Mathematics, Science and the other de- partments, which in some cities are sepa- rated into several schools. The organiza- tion of the school is also in strict accord- ance with the plans of our new principal. Our organization by advisory groups and the representative meeting in the Student Council is right along the line which Mr. Maddox is pursuing in forming a greater Cleveland High. Mr. Maddox has already endeared himself to Cleveland students by his sym- pathetic understanding of their desire for democratic school government. He en- tered at once with enthusiasm into develop- ing the Student Council, showing his faith in the students by giving this body more power and by increasing the membership. He also inaugurated the plan of auditor- ium sessions given entirely by school or- ganizations. These plans have been given the hearty support of the student body. Our new principal is a Kentuckian. anon College in Ohio, he taught in Ken- tucky for a time. He then went to Yale for his A. M. degree and afterwards again took up the profession of teaching. this time at Wyndam High School in Connecticut. From the East, Mr. Mad- dox came to the Blow School of St. Louis. Five years later he was transferred to the Wyman School for Observation connected with Harris Teachers' College, where he was principal for five years before coming to Cleveland. Wyman, we know, must feel the loss of Mr. Maddox very deeply since we have learned to esteem him so highly in one short term. But Wyman's loss is our gain as we enter upon the growth of a greater Cleveland High under his guid- ance. CHANGES IN TI-IE FACULTY. This term there were several changes in the faculty besides the change in prin- cipals. Some new teachers have been added and a few teachers have left. We welcome the following new members of the faculty: Mrs. Wostenholm, a teacher in English, is a St. Louisan and graduated from Central High School. She taught for some time in the grades and at Harris Teachers' College and later came to us from Washington University. Miss Field is a graduate of Drury College and taught at that school for a few years after her graduation. As a post-graduate student she attended North- western University and Chicago Univer- sity. She has taught for several years in St.,Louis and comes to us from Soldan as a teacher of Botany and Physiology. Mr. Deming, now teaching Civics at Cleveland, is a graduate of Drake Uni- versity and Chicago University. He has taught in Des Moines, Iowa, in Black- foot, Idaho, and in Calumet, Michigan, and came to us from the last named city. Miss Edwards is from Warrenton, After securing his A. B. degree at Leb-Mo. She took her B. S. at the Univer- Page Six fa to 1 'ual N515
