He is working' continually to get the students to appreciate more the vast opportunities that the school is presenting them. He is trying to get us to realize that every day we are working' to become better persons than we were the day before. He is trying' to prepare his students to be able to accept the responsibilities they will find when they graduate from high school into the world. Superintendent of Dormont Public Schools DR. D. H. STEWART is a graduate oi' Penn State. He was awarded his Master of Arts degree by Columbia University, and from the same school he received a Certificate of Superintend- ent of Schools. By the University of Pittsburgh, he was awarded his Doctor oi' Philosophy degree. From January to June of 1919 he attended the Uni- versity of VVales. In 1936 he came here as Superintendent of Dormont Schools. His idea for all of us is that we should aim for ttquality and not quantity. lt is much mo1'e essential that we do our assigned work and do it well, rather than do twice as much and do it in a poor fashion. For it is very important that we learn to do our job, do it when it is to be done, but most of all, we must learn to do it well. MR. C. E. GLASS

Page s TORCH 1945 af ff if DORMO T HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY THE FACULTY OF DORMONT HIGH SCHOOL DORIS KIRK LAND VVel1, here's the faculty- in whose hands we trustingly place ourselves. They see us through each day and check our papers in the evening. Yes, fellow students, school work is as hard on them as it is on us. Cln case you hadn't realized it.J A newcomer this year is Miss Paul down in Room 32. A welcome addition to the faculty, she is doing' big things with the Home Eco- nomics Dept. But it seems that there can't be a gain without a loss, because Mr. Byland, who was our head janitor, has left. Taking' his place is Mr. Bonnar, who is doing: quite a good job-quite. Aside from these changes, every- thing remains the same. V00 4 ENGLISH '-'George W. Snyder Marjorie Jones Mary Burton Ruth Nebinger Martha M. Morrow HISTORY :liRussell L.
