THE C€NTC€L TCWEC The ofifice — focal point of school activities — is familiar to every student and teacher; it is here that plans are made and administered to coordinate the many phases of life at Garrett High School. Long hours of hard labor are needed to make our school program operate smoothly. The superintendent and principal use their foresight and knowledge to determine the course that is to be taken. There is also an untold amount of intricate detail work to be done — tabulation, checkups, and reports — which are all a part of the duties of the school secretary. A gen- eral acquaintance with school laws and activities combined with personal traits of prompt- ness, dependability, and leadership have made the secretarial efficiency of Miss Nell well known throughout the twenty-four years which she has served Garrett Public Schools. Thus, the staff of the AEOLIAN takes pride in dedicating this book to Miss Nell, a dependable chief operator in the G. H. S. control tower.

r€UTH STUDIES r€C Often times — in the hustle and bustle of assignments, class discussions, and tests — we may lose sight of the actual purpose of school. Perhaps we ' ll have to reach our destinations in life before the real values derived from education can be fully realized. It doesn ' t take a grown-up, though, to understand that in this age of atoms, radar, and jets a well-rounded education plus practical experience are indispensible to anyone who expects to take his place in community life. Youth find it difficult to picture them- selves as the leaders of tomorrow, but through training and experience these students are preparing to pilot the world a few years hence. Top left.
