KANSAS, APRIL. 1907 Our present school hoard has been most progressive. Under its management the high school has had the most successful year of its existence. The standard of the faculty has been raised and higher priced instructors have been engaged. The laboratory equipment for both botany and physics has been more than doubled and more is premised for next year. Our library has been increased by the pur- ch use of a twenty-one volume set of The New International Ency- clopedia and a new dictionary. We are very fortunate in having' such a liberal body. With this issue, the work of the present staff in founding' and keeping' up THE CRIMSON is completed. We wish to thank our local editors who have devoted a share of their time to THE CRIMSON and wiihf ut any reward in the way of lieing excused frm rn other literary work. We are grateful to all who have at any time contributed to o.1r pages and to the members of the faculty who have assisted us in correcting' and editing copy. And we would say to our successors that although the position will be no sinecure still the exper- ience ,qained and the satisfaction of having accomplished something' willnbe worth the time and effort they will have put into their work. THE EDITOR. The pages of THE CRIMSON which are devoted to advertising, should be as interesting and as much read as the literary and editorial pages. In our advertisements are found the names of peo- ple who have real interest in the high school,-not the kind of inter- est that shows itself only in talk, but the kind that really helps. It is apparent that the advantages of advertising in a school paper are doubtful. Therefore I ask our readers to patronize our advertisers and in return for their support to support them. THE BUSINESS MANAGER.

2 'IHE CRIMSON FACULTY Our Superintendent, A. F. Senter, came to us from Minneapolis where he had been in charge of the schools for four years. He took his degree at Salina Normal an-1 from there went to the superintend- ency of the Anthony, Kansas schools. He next occupied the chair of Pedagogy at his Alma Mater. After four years of college teaching he again took up work in the public schools going to Minneapolis. Mr. Senters kindliness and readiness to talk on any subject, any- where, have given him the distinction of being called The Affablef' He is especially popular with the Crimson statf, being the only one of the faculty who would consent to have his picture in this book. ' You have probably noticed that we have but one faculty picture in the book. Our principal. Ray Green is the man who started the stampede among the faculty. He holds the degree of B. S. and is a graduate of Baker University, class of 1905. Last year he had the department of Sciences in the Logan county high school of Gutherie, Oklahoma where he first won fame through his shot gun quizzes. He has always made his recitation hours in Physics and Geometry interesting by little discourses on comets, .psychology etc. Our instructors in Latin and German, Miss Carrie Mitchell is a graduate of the State Normal college at Emporia and of Warrensburg Normal School at Warrensburg Mo. She is fond of making little jokes in class at the expense of the classic authors. Her future career is veiled in great mystery for some say she intends to apply for the instructorship of English and others whisper that in matri- monium ibatufwhen interviewed she only smiles and says nothing. 5
