McGuire and W B P:a.:'rctt, Qpresidentj In the old astronomical system seven celestial bodies were designated as planets, the five most important of which were Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Mer- cury, and Saturn. Heading our Fairfield educational system are seven men, faithful lu- minaries, five of whom radiate their energies tirelessly for no other recom- pense than the consciousness of having served well the youth of this com- munity. In these trying times of stress, when no one can foresee what lies ahead, the Fairfield Board of Education, with their business acumen, are piercing the gloom of financial uncertainty and are lighting up the way. Mr. L. R. Heston and Mr. C. I. Thoma were, this spring, re-elected to succeed themselves. They met no opposition whatever at the polls, and the voters gave them a large vote of confidence. Mr. W. B. Parrett has been president of the board for three years and a member for seven. Dr. R. A. McGuire has served five years, and Mr. Follen four. These men regard the succeessful functioning of our schools not solely in an impersonal way. Each one is himself a taxpayer and a patron, and as such is vitally concerned in furthering the interests of both taxpayers and pupils. The families of Dr. McGuire, Mr. Parrett, and Mr. Follen have each a representative in the Class of '33: Mr. Thoma looks upon the junior class with paternal solicitude: and Mr. Heston has children in the grades.
