MR. DORWIN, informer en all historical sub- jects, says home is where you hang your hat. He very often (both winter and summer) re- sorts to caveman tactics by bundling up his wife and fishing tackle for a lake trip. Fish- ing ' s the life, declares Mr. Dorwin. MISS ELZEY, school librarian, takes a post- man ' s holiday after school hours by spending much of her time in reading. She also goes in for needle point. Summers she spends in lake resorting. MR. EVERHART, health and safety and physi- cal education director, spends many of his after-school hours reading juvenile fiction. However, Miss Janet Kay Everhart, aged five, is the reason for this particular choice of literature. MISS FRISINGER, renowned Latin teacher, likes to collect rare plants with funny-sound- ing names. Her windows are full of them. She ' s also a philatelist. Don ' t be alarmed! It ' s nothing contagious. Or is it? Miss Fri- singer is an addict of the deplorable habit, stamp collecting. MISS HAUBOLD, city music supervisor, racked her brain for something she liked to do around home. My piano, she said, is a constant companion and— oh, yes— I mustn ' t forget my httle dog, Skippy. T ' iel) musi be those instructors That through all schools do roam To know them as the]) reall]) are ril trail them to their home. 1 t ' i Deane Dorwin Glennis Elzey Sylvester L.

' 1 I . ' V , . ' .« R. A. Adams Sigurd Anderson Hugh Andrews W. Guy Brown Harry D. Dailey MR. ADAMS, science teacher and epitome of gray-haired dignity, spends many quiet hours at home studying and delving into new meth- ods of educational research. He enjoys above all, summers on the farm. MR. ANDERSON, commerce teacher, spends many of his hours after four o ' clock with a certain young lady who calls him Daddy. That in itself is a wonderful vocation and a mighty big job, he solemnly warns the world. MR. ANDREWS, head of the physical educa- tion department, has a multiplicity of out- side occupations. Upon being pressed he said that he just usually visited around among the family. He likes to read all literature that has a historical background. MR. BROWN, principal, informed the consult- ing reporter that he and Mrs. Brown spend many of their hours at home evaluating the news. They are both avid newspaper readers as well as listeners of news-digests over the radio. The mutual pooling of such informa- tion gives them a background rich in current events of the day. Mr. Brown says he finds such evaluation,a-VaTuabi asset as pertains to his teapil o of civics. MR. DAIL W, extremely noisy mathematics teacher, ends his hours at home tinker- ing. Whenever she ' s able, Mrs. Dailey pulls him away from his odd-jobbery for a little round of social calls, bridge and the like. Who are these folios of noble mien Looking stern and quite austere They cant be students y;oung and ga They look i trifle too severe.

William T. Ives Kathryn Kauffman Amos Ketchum Eloise Lewion Vaughn Millikan MR. IVES, the agriculture instructor and as- sistant coach, solemnly avers that his home life hasn ' t been of sufficient duration as yet to develop hobbies. Every time he starts to do so, his wife commands him to help with the dishes. Every now and then he slips away, however, to take in a round of golf. 5;fxM MISS KAUFFMAN, art supervisor, calmly and placidly gave out the information that she carries her art from the schoolroom into her home. There is no dividing line, she mused as she worked contentedly upon an exquisite piece of needle point. MR. KETCHUM, of manual arts, absolutely does not tinker at home. He gets all of that he wants at school. He peruses all the latest farm magazines on hogs with a view to raising bigger and better porkers. MISS LEWTON, of the English department, in- vites all and sundry to see the results of the entire Lewton family hobby, gardening. If you want to see something out of Home Beautiful, see the Lewton back yard in the flowering season. MR. MILLIKAN, bookkeeping, mathematics and commercial geography instructor, warns his wife and all sundry that after four o ' clock p. m. the davenport is his flopping ground. A ' cushy ' couch and today ' s newspaper is the life, beams Mr. Millikan. f iij, the}) ' re human — rea Zi; human Astounding and amazing thought In the sanctum of their oia n four rvalls They act as people really ought.
