MILTON M. LONGSHORE A good fellow, is what a prominent senior boy was heard to remark of Mr. Longshore. And that is what he has become to the students during his first year at Excelsior. Even little puppets sometimes go astray or disobey the laws of puppetry and so do the students on our stage. For that reason we have the student- body court. which is the branch of justice in student self government, with Mr. Longshore as advisor. The court is run in an orderly fashion and the puppets Htake their medicine like the men they will someday be. As Dean of Boys, he haslthe mutual respect and conlidence of every boy in school. His interest is primarily in the proper orientation of social life, combined with education for the individual. character. He has been most suc- cessful in' helping many Excelsiorites to attain this ideal. MARIE SUMPTION The first function of counseling, is to help the student in self-discovery of his own special interests, aptitudes, and abilities, according to the April Quarterly of Secondary Education. It is the interpretation of the strange outer world to the student through his own eyes. Miss Sumption is an outstanding member in this drama of ours. She is the character reader, granting us parts which we wish to enact. She is ever ready to guide those perplexed, or to suggest the choice of courses and activities that will give them the greatest possible present suc- cess, ancl make for their greatest future efficiency as independent, happy and useful members of society. The success of counseling is spelled in the word Hconfidencef' In her new olfice, Miss Sumption has proved her ability through obtaining the friendship and respect of the students. MILTON M.
