The academic accomplishments have been well balanced with dramatics, music, journalistic activities, friendships and fun and all the other phases of high school life. The changes in the school have been few but very important. Although in the third year of following 'the supervised study plan, the school employed a full-time librarian this year for the first time. Miss Margaret Short, in the capacity of librarian, has been an important addition to the school faculty, proving that the efficient use of the library facilities of the school is an essen- tial part of the supervised study plan. ln the spring of the past year, Miss K. Magdel Prusack, under the auspices of the Red Cross, came to the High School and taught a six weeks course in home nursing for senior girls. 2

X ADMINISTDATIDN To the Boys and Girls of E. H. S.: It is becoming increasingly apparent that the old emphasis of education, that of remunerative reward, must be changed to one that will give higher and more permanent satisfactions in life. ln my mind that is the great lesson for education which these difficult times have brought us. So, l salute the young people of this depression period, and extend to them my sincere wish that they will bravely meet the challenge of the new day. G. L. PUTNAM. XXX, Greetings to the Students: This issue of the Klahiam will serve as a mem- ory book from which you can draw much enjoy- ment. lt is my sincere wish that in the future this book will be not only a pleasure but an incentive to further activity, to a continuation of a pro- gressive attitude toward the experiences of life, and a determination to be always a fine citizen and a credit to our school and community. W. M. BROWN. 1

Wager was elected to the position left open by the resignation of Mr. Albert Crimp. The other members of the Board, Mr. john Faust and Mr. C. Sterling, have continued to serve on this organization, important to, but sel- dom seen by the pupils of the school. Another change, not in the personnel of the school, but one which will affect a greater number of students now and in the future, is the construc- tion of Morgan Field, the new playground, which represents the foresight, interest, and untiring efforts of Superintendent Putnam and the members of the Board of Directors, together with the splendid cooperation of townspeople, faculty, and county officials and the C. W. A., under the management of Mr. F. T. Evans. Two tennis courts have been built on the field, and allowances have been made for the construction of a gymnasium at some time. The name of John H. Morgan, friend and adviser to scores of students during his years of service as principal, will be perpetuated, since the playground has been dedicated to him. 3
