Scientific Experimenters Iust as scientists are growing increasingly more efficient in laboratories adapted to the great advancement of physical knowledge and achievement, so our teachers are im- proving in their curricular departments, and becoming better able to produce a higher type of senior, more capable and better equipped for life. The faculty of the Elgin High School has developed to such an extent that they are now able to equip students with a splendid foundation for their future Work.

Elgin has been particularly fortunate in having an excellent board of education. Membership on the board of education is one of the few public offices that carry no remuneration, and it is perhaps for this reason that the caliber cf its personnel is higher than that of most elective bodies. The men and Women who aspire to this office are actuated by the desire to render a service to the community rather than to gain personal reward. To the satisfaction of the board members in knowing that their task has been well done, we would add the appreciation of the Elgin High School students for their most able and unselfish devotion to the best interests of the school. Directing the affairs of Elgin's school system is like running a large business. The board lays down the general educational policy, administers funds received, and coordinates the various school activi- ties. Property and equipment under its control are valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars. A president and nine members who serve for a term of three years comprise the board. There are three main committees: building and grounds, educational, and auditing. The finance committee is composed of the chairmen of the above three committees. Members for 1935-36 were: President Edwin Gardner, Paul Born, Charles Flora, Ray Geister, George Hart, Henry L. Krumm, Harry F. Mattocks, Archer Page, Dr. O. C. Prideaux, and Dr. Francis Towner. New members, elected in April, are: Paul Born, president, Mrs. Pearl Rayburn, William Lorang, C. Roy Dougherty, and Alfred Kirkland. They succeed Messrs. Gardner, Hart, Krumm, and Towner. 5
