We Introduce Labor ceases while the photographer does his work. Left to right-Snyder, Hyle, Smith, Matthews, Wade, McKillip, Davis, Stitzel. The Board of Education OOKS, bohds, taxes, teacher con- tracts, school laws, and policies -these are only a few of the many things that demand the attention of the Board off Education in order to keep the Hollidaysburg School System in smooth working order. Very few people realize just what be- ing a member of the Board involves. Every action of the Board is governed by the school code, which dictates what shall or may be done. The School Board members, who serve without compensation, must determine just what policies shall be followed in governing the schools. The tax millage rate must be determined to meet the needs of the budget, which must be carefully pre- pared. The purchase of supplies, such as coal, books, desks, brooms, pencils, tablets, and a host of other necessities requires diligent study by the Board. The personnel, to carry out the Board's policies, necessitates long hours of in- terviews. The erection and maintenance of school buildings demand considerable attention. Plans, bond issues, and con- tracts cause the School Board much work and worry. Of the vast numbers of duties of the Board of Education we have cited a few to give you, the stu- dents, a knowledge of some of the things that must be done before the doors of any Hollidaysburg school open. This Board is really the senate of our school government, made up of men who have willingly sacrificed time and energy the make our schools as good as any in the state. These men are elected by our parents and represent our pa- rents in matters where our education and welfare are concerned. Through Hobson C. Wagner, our superintendent of public schools, their decisions and policies are carried out. The seven members of the School Board are: John M. Snyder, Homer l. Smith, Harvey H. Hyle, John A. Mat- thews, Homer C. McKillip, William H. Wade, and J. W. Stitzel. The minutes and business of each meeting are recorded by Miss Blanche M. Davis, secretary of the Board of Education. - Page Ten
