ADMINISTRATION The success of an individual in solving difficult problems, in resisting temptations, and in realizing his ambitions is largely dependent upon the character building and personality training secured during his highschool days. We of the Elgin High School are very fortunate in having an administrative body com- posed of men and Women who possess directive ability par-excellent. Only a man with remarkably sound judgment, genuine aggressiveness, and a considerable amount of initiative can earn the respect and appreciation of an entire faculty and student body as quickly and easily as has Mr. Merrill Stephan, Elgin High Schoolls newly appointed principal. Mr. S. C. Miller, principal of Abbott, is respected for his thoughtful and kindly attitude toward pupils who seek his Willing advice and counsel. The office of assistant principal is competently filled by Mr. T. A. Larsen, who also wisely directs and assists boys who have adjustment difficulties. Mrs. Drysdale is the director of pupil adjustment. She is very understanding and helpful in her con- ferences with high school students and merits their confidence. In Miss Adah Pratt she has an able and very cooperative assistant. HEALTH DEPARTMENT To be attractive is to be healthy. Everyone is impressed by a radiantly happy and wide awake individual, and the purpose of this department is to create in the minds of the students the importance of promoting efficient care of the body. The nurses stress the prevention of disease, and the Work this year has included an effective campaign for diptheria as well as worth while improvements in the sight-saving classes. Special Work in sight saving is being done by Miss Marie Ansel. M'iss Helen L. Revett is the head of the health department, and during her absence, she is ably assisted by Mrs. Charles Silliman and Miss Mary Britton. CO-ORDINATOR The Elgin High School has every esteem and con- fidence in Bliss Edna Geister who now occupies the olliice of co-ordinator between the school and the community. 'I'-Q.
