History and Uivivzs, WELLINGTON Debate-. llrumzt English, Janus Hisluryy Engligh Standing back of us throughout our school years are the teachers. For them our affectionate regard grows as the years go by. We like to remember little incidents in the class room-things they said and did. Of course there were many times when we didn't see eye to eye on a number of things. For example, teachers have a strange and unaccountable belief that study is important. This is most peculiar, but we are of a very tolerant nature and have done our best to overlook it. I really hate to mention this, but their great weakness is, without doubt, their fondness for tests. This has proved to be very embarrassing at times. It is our candid opinion that these tests Cast a shadow on high school life which is very bad for our morale. We hope that something may be done about it. To be truthful though, we really appreciate the patience our faculty members have with us, and the time and work they spend on us and our activities.

WM' de GW One morning before school we decide to pay a visit to the office Upon entering we find Mrs Robinson busy reading excuses and writing absence slips. Mrs. Ayers is on the phone tracking down a misplaced stu- dent. A voice, unmistakably Mr. Neigh- bor s, is heard Miss Scherf! Would you get Miss Morgans report? We silently follow Miss Scherf to the night school office. While we are there Mr. Reid enters. Wfe stay awhil 'admiring his business-like brisk- ness. He certainly has kept the night school running uell. Attendance has increased, worthwhile courses have been offered, and he has been instrumental in bringing many famous speakers to the Hanford Evening Forum mzking Hanford outstanding in this respect. Look at that clock! We hurry out the door and toward the office, praying all the way for a good excuse, but we have found from pasnexperience that Mrs. Ayers and Nlrs. Robinson are not easily fooled. .mum 'iv Teva?

Teachers not only teach us, they advise us and guide us, they help us over the humps and bumps of our life. Teachers are talent scouts. Pounding a few grains of knowledge into an unwilling head can probably become very tiring and very discouraging. When a jewel is uncovered in a teacher's particular subject, whether it be a literary, a mathematical, an athletic, or any other jewel, the teacher's enthusiasm rises by leaps and bounds. Encouraging the student for his achievement is a great help to him and often plays an important part by inspiring him toward a higher goal. Yes, teachers are talent scouts.
