XVhenever we encounter a teacher who has a diploma from Fostoria High School, we can be positive in regard to her ability as a capable teacher. Miss McCauley is a graduate of North Central College, where she obtained her A. B. Degree. She has since studied at Chicago University. She taught in Mich- igan for two years, then in Barberton for three years before coming here. She has been with us for three years. Last summer she and Miss Hohler took Zl trip abroad, which Miss McCauley believes to haxe had as much educational value as her years spent in school. She is a very competent Latin teacher and we hope to have her with us for a number of years Io come. .1q. 1927 H

Stenography is a language of funny little marks and dots on paper. Typing is the art of punching keys at the proper time and place to secure a line of words across a page, Otlice Practice is the study of proper forms of business letter writing. Miss Frye is very well versed in these mysteries and is able to make her students understand them fullly. She has been with us for four years and we hope to retain her for as manv more. .l7.
