hrecLclt 9 uan ter$ . . This war has served The National Farm School great inconveniences as it has probably every other institution in America. With Dr. Louis Nusbaum, President; William O. Strong, Dean; Samuel B. Samuels, Purchasing agent and Sports Coach; Irwin Klein, Social Director; and Miss E. M. Belfield, Secretary to the President; at the helm, this school has weathered the roughest storm in its existence. The job of training students while producing more for the national emergency became quite a task and a new set of standards had to be drawn to apply to the younger group of boys entering the Farm School ' s gates. This meant younger students and therefore more time in which to instruct them, and the return to the original curriculum of half-day work and half-day classes. Both were done with equal efficiency and production of farm products and livestock mounted. Dr. Nusbaum, in spite of his gigantic job, has never refused audience with any student, nor refused to discuss current school problems. He has done much for the students to build morale and better student-administration relations. Mr. Samuels has always acted as mentor for student organization and business problems; and for special activity arrangements. He has served as go-between the Alumni- Associa- tion and the Student body. Mr. Klein as Social Director, holds a position which is that of an axis between two extremes and consequently finds himself bearing the brunt of both sides of conflicts. Miss Belfield, whose duties as Secretary are many and varied, has little relationship with the student body. JHowever, those who come in contact with her find her to be congenial, pleasant and charming.

c Department rreucid . . . ?p Amid the shelves of learning and under the roof of ideals stand the mentors of the students and staff of the school. Farm School students have always enjoyed a close fellowship and friendly intercourse with the faculty, but have never been in a more favorable position, due to our currently diminished numbers. Each senior was placed in a position to receive personal and individual instruction from his department head. Very often faculry members graciously gave of their own personal time, and worked assiduously toward the improvement of the students and the school. Most of our faculry serve, a dual purpose, since they must produce in the fields as well as teach in the classrooms. They must take into consideration the various age groups, abilities and eccentricities of the present student body. We work side by side with our instructors in the fields, and in the class- rooms we delve into the theory of those operations which we just recently performed. We are all cognizant of the meritorius service which they have rendered, and the personal interest they have shown to develop us into trained agriculturists.
