fi CHARLES A. HOVVARD Charles A. Howard graduated from the Baker Univer- sity, at Baldwin, Kansas, in 1907. Before coming to Oregon he taught for one year in the Southern Kansas Academy. He took charge of History and Mathematics in the Klamath County High School during the years 1907-1911. In the fall of 1911 he accepted the superintendency of the Coquille schools, and continued his work there until coming to Eu- gene in the fall of 1917. It was his task upon coming here to acquaint himself with an entirely new system, new stu- clents and new instructors, and the ease with which he has accomplished this and the success which has followed his administration of school affairs demonstrates his executive ability. Mr. Howard, during his first year with us, has, through his ready sympathy, keen appreciation of and deep interest in student life, won a warm place in the hearts of the stu- dents. From the very beginning of his work with us, he has been untiring in his efforts to make the Eugene High School the very best school possible. At all times he has been an earnest and wise counsellor, taking a personal in- terest in each individual and every activity. Under his able guidance, many new and practical meth- ods have been worked into the already very eflicient system, which has brought about a greater co-operation between the administration and the students, and has made possi- ble a better school atmosphere. This has come about largely through Mr. Howard's able organization, which has devel- oped a spirit of loyalty and co-operation on the part of the teaching corps. It is to be sincerely hoped that Mr. Howardis capable leadership will continue to guide old Eugene High School through many years of success and development. 8
